....after a number of years my Jahti Jakt jacket has started to let water in (discovered during torrential rain whilst after pheasants in the Lakes recently), so I'm thinking of adding a plain green lightweight jacket to my Xmas list as a replacement.
I noticed that Optics Warehouse are having a sale on Ridgeline, and you could pick up a Torrent jacket for 80 quid, which is a few bob cheaper than they usually are....
So - any good??? (If the general view is "No", I'll spend a bit more on a Rivers West or similar, just wondering if the Torrent keeps the water out without you dramatically overheating/drowning in your own sweat - my pheasant shooting involves dragging through fields of sprouts, up 'n' down hills, etc, not just standing at a peg!)
Just thought it may be a reasonable option for £80....?
Cheers,
Merlin
