    Bush buck big four jacket

    Looking at picking one up, they any good? What's the sizing like I'm 5"11 78kg would medium be OK? Look like great jackets for the money!

    I'm 5' 9", 90 odd kg. I buy XL.
    When it gets really cold can wear an under layer comfortably.

    I like mine, it lives on the boat and is great for cold mornings to keep the wind and spray off- Wouldn't want to carry it too far and no way it is fitting in a pack but for fly in trips when it is likely to get wet it is a good bit of kit to have.

    I'm 6'1" and 110kg and I wear 2XL over my wetsuit

    I have one of their 'ranger' bush shirts and would say the same thing, warm and comfy but heavy and bulky (and not very breathable so you sweat like a paedo in a kindergarten if you walk up hills in it).

    I've noticed that if you submit any product reviews that aren't 100% positive they don't show in the reviews on the website though, bit sneaky. I posted reviews on a couple of things I bought (mostly positive but also mentioning some negatives) and they aren't there. So treat their 'reviews' with a healthy dose of cynicism if you didn't already.
