poorpeet Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 I've got the JP Hunter, the one without the fleece. It's kept me bone dry and warm when needed. It's very light and comfortable too. I didn't bother with the fleece as I've got a few and I can just pick the one that suits the temp best. The only thing I think it could do with having is a draw string or belt as it's quite loose fitting and can be draughty, which you notice 'cos most of the time you feel so toasty. No rips or signs of wear so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperfection Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 I've got the hunter coat and cant really fault it.Its water proof,wind proof and warm too.My only critism is the silly cartridge holders inside the pockets-they're a terrible idea.The pockets though are huge and you can easily stuff atleast 50 cartridges in each of them should you want to. Just thought of another negative thing-the rain hood.It makes you look like someone from 'Little house on the prarie' cos its not attached to the coat and looks like an old fashioned bonnet!

My mum cut the cartridge holder out the pockets are big enough for 4/5 boxes if you dont mind the weight on your shoulders EDR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrighty112 Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 I've got a Jack pike jacket an trousers from my local Market (not knock offs) got them for £50 for the pair. I think there ok. Jacket is great in cold weather with a removable lining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
