Greetings all. Posting this thread as a favour to a mate who's desperately in search of a new jacket ...
Now he's by no means the 'outdoors type', but he wants a decent, waterproof jacket that he can use for everyday use - on his bike in the Manchester rain, down the pub without looking like the 'eternal rambler' - but also something that would be just about pass on the hills (on a good day ...). He also wants the jacket to have some kind of lining (rather than being a shell), and finally, he wants it in olive green. Something ex-military would be ideal, but no DPM. And the budget has to be roughly £80-£100.
Anything spring to mind? Let me know if it does ... and apologies that this ain't strictly a 'bushcraft kit' request - but you lot are such a gold mine of information that I couldn't resist! :biggthump
Cheers,
G
