Your thoughts for a pullover nylon type windproof??

[troutman]

I'm looking for something that may well not exist!

Basically looking for a synthetic material pullover smock with a 1/2 zip and hood, which is wind and water resistant, a fleece liner might be good too. I have seen some by Mil-Tec on Amazon for £35, which is about as much as I want to pay as it will be used for general bushcraft and general day off wear! Not really too keen on DPM since I'm using it for general wear too- anyone own anything similar? any suggestions?

Thanks

That's probably the cheapest one around, the bushcraft store have them too

Personally I'd rather an unlined one with a separate micro fleece as its much more versatile. I've got a few options, including ventile and synthetic, but the one that is closest to what your after is a paramo fuera. Over budget though

Thanks ben, looked at the paramo and it does seem nice but I don't want to spend that much as its just for general bushcraft and DIY- which might dramatically reduce how long it stays in "good condition" for

I have the unlined version mil tec you have seen from BushcraftStore and its Great. Why pay more anyway

£32, look on ebay for breathtex and you will find different colours too http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WINDBREAK..._Men_s_Coats_Jackets&var=&hash=item27b7cc5dff My lad likes his.

Other side of the pond, but you might want to consider the LL Bean Nylon Anorak in dark green. Very simple, tough and lightweight.
