so like when its raining and stuff, because that's usually when you wear them, are you really concerned about that compared to the drowning sound of the rain!?

its a gimmick, this cotton/velvet shit holds water, gets heavy and wont breathe as well as a normal nylon outer/membrane jacket. about the only thing its good at is saving your ass when sliding down a scree on it.

I can understand if all you ever are exposed to is, must wear a "hunting" jacket to go hunting in but seriously, there are other brands which make gear that is a shit load more durable and functional with shit loads more r&d put into them to make them a good product.

have a look on the net and see all the bad reviews about how shit those hunters element coats are
