Check this out on E bay

Don't know if this is actually rubber? But if it is it is a bargain.
I have a feeling this is actually PVC as I have the Green version on the same sellers site which is heavy pvc.

Got one on order should arrive Wednesday or Thursday!

That is what I thought!
If pvc it is still reasonable.

Looks nice but no chance of it fitting me.............
Broad minded enough to acknowledge we all enjoy different things:)

This coat came this morning. Ordered Monday morning so good service.
But not rubber as stated but a fairly heavy pvc.
The material looks the same as PVC U LIKE use on their thick material coats.

Will try it on later and maybe upload some photos

Best wishes

mine hasnt arrived yet, didnt order till Monday evening. As its not rubber as stated do you think we should give them negative feedback for misrepresentation or would that be just too naughty of us, haha

Merv
I have given feed back but could not be bothered about saying it was not rubber!
I ordered mine Monday morning so you should get your's tomorrow!
The green one on his site is marked up as rubber too but that is definitely pvc as I have one from a different seller!

I was only joking about the feedback. I think we all knew perfectly well what we were getting, whether the seller is being naive or dishonest in the description the price is hardly extortionate

Yes I know but I am happy with his service so that is what I put in a few words!
I have not worn the coat as yet but will try tomorrow when I get the chance.
I await your verdict on the coat!

The coat looks like a black version of something I saw in a film on tv Saturday

The Caine Mutiny.

Half way through there is a typhoon sequence when the officers are on the bridge of the ship.
They are wearing what looks like green pvc/oilskin coats with sou'westers.
