“So far so good with this new coat from New Forest. I went a size up on usual so extra layers can be worn in winter. Been out in some damp weather but not down pours and held up so far.
If anything I think it would benefit from some interior pockets.
I'm a dog walker for my job so will see how it handles 5 days a week out in all weather's.”
“The hood is oversized, so it fits over ear defenders, and the drawstrings help to get a good snug fit. The neoprene cuff work well and the long back keeps your bum dry. It has a generous cut so you can layer up when it gets cold. I’ve got a few field coats, but this is the one I wear when it’s raining heavily.”
“I have now had the opportunity to wear this jacket in very wild, wet and windy weather. Very happy with the quality. Excellent waterproof, windproof jacket and long enough to keep more of you dry. I found the breathability very good when walking up into the hills. Good room for layering up if needed, although for me, a shirt or light fleece is sufficient at this time of year. Ordering your normal size is just fine it has that little extra for more clothing underneath. The only suggestion I would offer is to have some sort of magnet or strap to keep the big pocket open when shooting. Annoying trying to get shells out of it with gloves on and it closing over all the time. That aside I would recommend this jacket. Selling for a good price at the moment and the quality is up there with the best, in my opinion.”
“Lovely jacket for the price. Does everything I need it to do with pockets in all the right places. Lots of positive design features and doesn’t appear to be built down to a price. I haven’t tested the waterproofing so far but I have every confidence that it will deliver. Feels warm as well.”
