Yeah I don't know if I'd pay over £100 for it.
It really isn't warm either, not that's it's meant to be but yeah.
The new vass jackets look good tbf and they defo don't let the rain soak through.

appreciate the suggestions, I've been happy with the F12 waterproof trousers but I only paid £ 35 new for them so over a hundred for the jacket I'd want it to keep the rain out

I’ve got one. It was good for a couple of seasons, then started leaking. Still wear it for walking the dog.
My fishing waterproof is now the new Navitas Aquaguard 20k, which is a similar design to the F12 but has a higher HH rating (20000, rather than 10000) and so far so good

I have the f12 camo and bought it from ad when was about £60.
It's true to size of say, I got an XL and I'm an XL in most other things.
I took it with me one day when no rain was forecast and it kept the rain off me for a bit, but then it started to seep through after a while and I felt cold due to this, so it will keep you dry but not if you plan on wearing for a prolonged period.
I got a jack wolfskin jacket off vinted for £35 and it's great.

Giving this a bump, see if there are any long term users with feedback and is it true to size?
I've had a trakker downpour jacket which other than being bulky and not very breathable has done a very good job at keeping me dry. So this would be an upgrade to that.
Any other brands like the Nash stuff worth considering? Sadly Mountain goretex brands are out of my budget

Does this jacket stay waterproof and beading after longer periods in the rain?

I didnt have a set of the original ones so I cant compare but I do have a set of the new ones and I really like them. The fabric is light and soft, no lining and wont keep you warm in winter but they will keep you dry and once wet they dry out very fast. Ive owned other Fox waterproofs and it felt and sounded like I was walking in a crisp packet, but not these. The fit is really nice to.

If I see right. The jacket has no warm lining only a mesh one Not sure I want to pay that much for a summer jacket

They look pretty good to be fair. And if we were not to buy anything that was manufactured from China then for most of us we'd be fishing bollocky with tank aerials and cat gut . Albeit cheaper than £175 😊
