I have a yearning for a long ( knee length ) duster/drovers type coat
in Ventile.
Anyone ever seen one or made one up?
Like a ventile version of the old Barbour long contry,belted rain mack!
Any thoughts?

Only one; horribly expensive.:eek:

As a ventile fan meself, I think a full length coat would be impractical. Once it got soaked it would be very heavy and stiff and a pig to get dried out.

I could of course be wrong.:D
 
..You could be right fella,its just that I once found myself stuck out for the night with the above mentioned barbour and a few other bits of kit and found it a tuff,comforting, showerprooth outer,good to wrap up in ( in was big! ) and huddle around a fire in a woods,awaiting dawn!
Like a long,belted,hoodless parka....
