Hi Folks, I wanna again purchase an RA68 black raincoat from PUL.
How shiny and tactile is the BKS12 fabric and material ?
My favourite pvc / vinyl fabric was the „very shiny on both sides“ fabric, that was available a few years ago.
But as the fabric has changed over the years, the pvc fabric isn’t very shiny and very tactile any more.
The ideal fabric for me would be a mixture of BKG01 and BKS1, if this actually might exist.
So what’s your recommendation, which fabric to choose ?
BKS1, that isn’t as shiny and tactile as a few years ago
BKS1, that is 0,150 nm rather than 0,200 nm ?
BKG01, that is tactile, but clear and non opaque ?
How is your experience with newer vinyl fabrics of PUL nowadays ?
Which pvc to choose ? Any experiences with bks11 ?

HI
I love PVC U Like they are a great company and very helpful and their garments are excellent quality and value for money. Having over 50 macs from them and 26 rainsuits, hats leggings etc. i would not go anywhere else.
So in answer to your question of this helps.
BKS4- Double lined PVC 400 with red shiny inside and black shiny outside is a lovely mac heavy but lovely.
BKS11- Black in their new thicker rubber like PVC is wonderful not so shiny but has a nice sheen, with a rubber like inside in 280.
BKS1- Black PVC 200 is lovely and shiny really glistens and is a lovely PVC.
personally their best mac is the fashion mac RA02 nice and long ankle length and great quality with metal poppers.
trust this helps, GlendaS

Dear Glenda, many thanks for your recommendation and opinion.
Have you ever get in touch with BKS12, the thinner 0,15 micron, 150 nm material ?
How is it ? Super shiny and tactile and clinging and rustling ?

Yes I have 7 macs in that in both pearl and shiny and both are nice
The shiny isn’t as soft as the pearl which is my preferred but do rustle nicely

I purchases a few garments from PUL a couple of years ago that was made of there limited supply of BKS10. It is about 150 microns and wet look black inside and out. I cannot put the stuff down. I love my long trenchcoat I bought.
