Jacket

[para106]

Can thoroughly recommend these jackets for the great outdoors!! Fleece lined, quiet fabric & VERY waterproof. Brilliant price as well - I bought 2!

I've even been skiing with this one. No connection with the company, just a first class piece of kit.

They look good for the price. What's the difference with Pro (sold out) and Standard?

The Pro is a slightly darker green - that's it as far as I can see from reading the specs. If I had 1 minor gripe about the jacket it would be that the hood doesn't zip off. It folds into the collar & that makes it a bit bulky. As you say, though, for the price they are the dogs!!

These are the same ones that Decathlon sells, usually with a good choice in sizes!

Are they made of a quiet fabric?

What's the actual outer material, is it a proofed nylon ?

It looks very similar to the Tahr but with hand warmer pockets added.

It's more like a cotton. I've been having another look at the product description & have found a couple of anomalies:

Mine doesn't have a removable fleece - it's sewn in.

Mine doesn't have a 2 way zip.

Maybe these are features of the Pro. Still a great jacket but if these 2 features are a must for you - don't get one.
