Grundens Brigg Jacket

Has anyone used the grundens brigg 44 jacket, i am thinking about getting one for shooting during stormy weather on the foreshore, they look like they would keep the water out thats for sure but, how long on the body are they?

I've had this exact model for several years now and can definitely recommend it. I'm about 5' 9'' and the bottom of it is about halfway down my leg, about where my pocket knife sits while in my pants pocket.

Thanks for the reply, a couple of wee questions, are they pretty generous in size for insulation layer underneath? are the neoprene cuffs comfortable, they make the same jacket with and without cuffs and I'm not sure what one to go for!!

I have no complaints with the neoprene cuffs. As for size, yes, they are quite generous, more so than most I think.
My chest size is 44-46, which I believe is considered XL, yet my Brigg 44 is a size large, which still allows me to easily wear a somewhat bulky jacket underneath.
