Rainwear Central Rainwear Forum

Hi All, I am going on a boating holiday again this year and am looking for a hard wearing shiny rain suit to buy. On previous occasions I have worn latex but this is far too delicate whilst working locks etc.
I have looked at Farmerrain but these seem a bit pricy.
Can anyone recommend any retailers that sell this type of thing and at reasonable prices.
Thank you

Goes up to xl which is big

Sadly this is becoming increasingly hard to find now. How about PVC u like? or if you want to spend a bit more how about Guy Cotten.

This ebay shop sells some excellent viking rubber rainwear, although its cotton backed PVC.

Not hard wearing but yellow! Not recommended as they split!

He's got better prices than Farmerrain and it's also opalo

They may seem expensive but you can't go wrong farmerrain. Really good quality gear and spot on for being usable. Anything less and it won't be "hard wearing"
The opolo is great and probably the most hard wearing but they run at 700gsm most of the time and personally it's too heavy to be functional.

Indeed so but there is an even heavier coat at 1000 gsm!

Bonkers, moving in it must feel like swimming in treacle
