    Bushcraft Jacket Cape-let

    Don't supose you know where they are sold? Had a quick search and seems to be mostly fashion type capes using a similar(traditional?) pattern to this one. Just the right size to keep rain off the bits that get soaked first and probably heavy enough not to annoyingly flap about in a breeze...
