trenchfoot 4,243 Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 I have a Ridgeline smock. Great if you are not moving around too much. Otherwise you'll sweat your nads off. I also have a Swedeteam smock which is Gortex. Very breathable, great hood and cuffs. Limited pockets. BUt fantastic when the weather turns absolutely foul. For day to day wear,you will not go far wrong with Nomad, But they do take some time to dry off when they get wet. Quote Link to post
Blackdog92 2,047 Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 Mate of mine has a "swazi" smock not sure on the model he rates it highly. He says the ridgeline jackets are rubbish in comparison. There a bit pricey though. Quote Link to post

james95 18 Posted August 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 I've been thinking of getting a ridgeline smock but then I luke the look of swazi and nomad gear (expensive like) but I suppose you get what you pay for. Going to have a look into deerhunter and swedeteam other wise it's a toss up between nomad an swazi Quote Link to post
