    Hunters Element Pinnacle Jacket

    Does anyone have any experience with this jacket? I know this topic has been thrashed but trying to decide which way to go for rainwear. I'm in welly and spend a lot of time in tight bush so need to consider noise wind cold and wet! Had a hunters element extreme xtr and it failed completely.

    I have no information RE the jacket, But surely if you had one jacket from the brand and it failed completely, you wouldnt spend the money on another from them?

    Based only on my experience I wouldn't trust it anywhere, the stitching will unravel and the Zips will break.

    I've got the Torrent II Jacket. Will keep you warm and mostly dry. When I say mostly I mean if you walk around in heavy rain all day don't expect to be bone dry by end of it, but you will be warm.
