pip1968 2,490 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 ive had a green jack pyke coat for a year now im not one for wearing real tree so opted for the plain green and its done me for the cold weather and light rain but i always take a back up coat like the army gortex one which to be honest is by far the better coat Quote Link to post Share on other sites

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 It is hot, very hot, I was shooting last January with the jacket open, otherwise I was getting too hot. I only wear it when temps are below six degrees celcius otherwise I boil to death! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IanB 0 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 Its cheaply made, they claim to be waterproof, well personally I think there not, and anyone wearing them will sweat like hell, just look at the quality alongside the likes of Deerhunter, Musto, Barbour, etc there is no comparison. On the plus side there cheap.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paid 935 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 They aint the very best of quality, but then kids do grow fast, so you wont get years out of them any way mate. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
torchey 1,328 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 As paid said for the kids they will be fine, mine have had jp gear and its been ok for them..I use a jp jacket when lamping sometimes ,if its warm out you will sweat like f**k and its supposed to be breathable..On the plus side its got a seat thing on the back of the jacket that you unzip but i use it as a poachers pocket and can comfortably fit 4 rabbits in.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mikeball 108 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 I've got jp trousers which i hate oversized and I sweat like fook in them but they are waterproof. I've also got a jp fleece which is great for mooching about with the dogs and its nice and warm and it will keep me dry in a good shower. Atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
