Sounds like what I experienced with rivers west cloathing

i take it the rivers west stuff is nt that good i was going to get a few bits but dont no now .whats up with it is it just that youb get to hot?

good water repelancy hard wearing but no wicking (wet inside garment upon removal) well constructed for the ocasional user not for the demanding hunter on extended hunts

Derby tweed is as good as it gets carry a bum bag with a light weight poncho ,just in case it pours down saves getting through to the skin.

 

Tweed dries quick though once the rain stops and its also relatively silent and blends in with the surroundings some tweed jackets like the Hucklecote for instance which i have do include a mid waterproof liner and are totally waterproof but are very expensive at £430.00 although i didnt pay that for mine as it was second hand , as for boots get yourself some Brasher Hillmaster superlites they are brilliant I have had mine now for 4 years and totally waterproof and comfortable.

 

With some boots the heather can wreck them in no time but the brashers stand the test, so much so I use mine now alternately with my Hi-Tech superlights for blanket forest stalking..

Hope this helps

i use Harkila Prohunter, top and bottoms, and meindle dovre. Im out in the worst of the weather, and it always works for me. The downside is the weight. It nots lightweight stuff.
