Vegetato Rain Suit
The Mil-Tec Vegetato Camouflage Wet Weather Suit is a two-piece waterproof shell, a separate jacket and pair of pants, that goes over your normal clothing when the weather turns. It is made for hunters, campers, airsoft players and anyone working outdoors who needs to stay dry without giving up camouflage. The print is Vegetato Woodland, based on the Italian Army's mimetico vegetato pattern of greens, browns and tans.
Features
- PVC-Coated Polyester — The 100% polyester fabric has a polyvinyl chloride coating on it, which makes it waterproof rather than just water resistant.
- Two-Piece Design — The jacket and pants are separate, so you can wear the jacket alone in a light shower and add the pants when it gets heavier.
- Full-Length Front Zipper — A button-close wind flap covers the zipper to keep rain and wind from driving through the closure.
- Stowable Hood — The drawstring hood tucks into the collar when you don't need it and pulls out when you do.
- Underarm And Back Vents — Vents under the arms and across the back let some moisture escape, which cuts down on the clammy feel of a fully coated shell.
- Flap-Over Jacket Pockets — Two pockets on the jacket front have covering flaps to keep rain out.
- Elasticated Pants — The pants have an elastic waistband, two hand pockets and snap-fastening adjusters at the leg cuffs to close them around your boots.
- Storage Bag Included — The suit packs into its own bag, about 2 lb (0.9 kg) in total, so it can ride in a pack until you need it.
Construction And Fit
Mil-Tec is a German outdoor and tactical equipment brand, and this suit is built as a simple, lightweight overlayer instead of an insulated jacket. It is cut loose so it fits over a shirt, fleece or field jacket, which means you choose your warmth underneath and keep the suit for wind and rain. The PVC coating keeps water out well but breathes less than membrane fabrics, so the vents matter during hard walking.

GoodPerfect for weather protection whilst fishing with good camouflage

well worth the priceI got this to serve as an emergency rain suit, to stash in the car or "Get-Home Bag." The suit is vinyl, so of course it isn't breathable, but it does have a ventilation vent on the inside of the jacket (near the neck area) to alleviate some of the problems you will have with expiration. The pants have reach-through pockets on each side to allow you access to your pants underneath the suit. The suit is well made. I wouldn't wear this if you are doing anything strenuous, but for fishing trips, sitting around camp. or casual walking around? This will do the trick. Plus it comes with a nice storage bag. Drawstring on the bottom of the jacket and hood. Pants have an elastic band, but no drawstring. Both snaps and zipper on the jacket and snaps to secure the bottoms of the rain pants.

Winter Can Be WetIt drives me nuts that really good winter coats are usually not the slightest bit waterproof. Get a little wet snow and you are screwed. So I bought this suit in 3XL to go over my winter duds when needed, and it works well. I gave it a 5 for quality as the vinyl is thicker than you would expect so it won't tear on the first little branch you run into. Does it breathe? Of course not. Nothing breathes for me so I might as well save my money by not buying "breathable" stuff. Wet snow driven by wind-- Bring it on!
