What waterproof jacket / smock

The problem is the colour Issue as your limiting your options to very few and most mainstream shooting options don't breath and are too heavy . I can't think of a neoshell option in those colours so your comiong back to Goretex / Goretex Pro which is where the costs start rising .

Regarding the above options .... Anorak no8 has some bad reviews on not being waterproof and whilst I'm not 100% sure I don't think Swazi are big on pit zips .... Well my Tahr doesn't breath well at all .

Not sure exactly how good it would be but you could wear an Arcteryx Wraith top ( Tan ) or a paramo Fuera smock ( Olive ) over your black Alpha LT

Just a thought

Bit late as you’re sorted now, but to anyone else thinking along the same lines I would recommend Nomad or Rivers West. Nomads a bit pricier but extremely durable and waterproof. Rivers west is good also but fall apart a bit quicker, (4-5 years of hard use). Both have big front pouches which as you mentioned are great for sticking the thermal or bins in.

Regards

Ben
