I have a Polartec Windpro Fleece jacket by L.L. Bean that is rather comfortable, nearly windproof but rather short and red...:eek:

Now I am wondering if anybody knows some maker or manufacturer that makes a more bushcraft style jacket in olive green or tussock green e.g., longer, with more pockets, like some Swannies or the Windriver by Swazi.

What I like about that fabric is the breathabiliy compared to the ones using membranes of some kind or windproof linings...

Any idea anyone?

Thank you for the links,

the pile jacket in the first looks really great, but light blue cuffs... hmmm and the text says that it is water repellent but no word about being windproof. The Helly Hansen that I have, a classic pile jacket, is not windproof, at least not the way my Windpro jacket is.
And the last link also looks interesting, but it has a shell that I wanted to avoid using Windpro as this does not have a shell or lining or membrane...

And the guys are crazy on shipping rates to Austria, Europe...

Thank you very much for the input

Have a look at the karrimor sf range, they have a fleece thats windproof, but does'nt have a liner. We used to be issued them & they were very good.
