Terry P Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 Bought a herter coat about 5 yrs ago and it has been bob on fair play, well except for the fact the pockets always let water in but never out for some strange reason, but the coat itself has never let a drop in no matter what the weather threw at me. I took the dog for a walk last night and it lashed it down and for the first time ever it leaked through the seams on the arms. My question, is it worth re proofing, do reproofers work or is five years about it for a heavily used fowling coat. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
