It's the stuff that apj1974's clergyman's cloak should be made from.
It is!
I agree with you about the length etc. the clergy cloak wouldn't be too practical around a camp fire, its more of a standing around in very cold or windy places type of cloak. I would say that the wool is more than showerproof.
Also a useful feature on the clergy cloak is a pair of "handles" on the inside front which you can hold it closed with or pass a belt through.
I remember an old policeman telling me it was a sad day they scrapped the cloak as it meant the copper could no longer stand on street corner with his hands in pockets!
