jacket
got one now & traded in an old jacket for the discount. Skau is great with a nice sized hood. cant fault it really except they could have done it with a fleece collar as the material they used is hard to keep clean at this point. and yes i do wash my neck!!!!!
for rough stuck check out the german Flecktarn pattern camo jackets, these are bril & about to buy a gortex version ready for the winter.

I'm afraid I can't get the link into the post! If you type "skua jacket" into the seach facility, it will bring the details up, along with the scope cases.

I have a Country innovations ventile Jacket which i like very much. just wondering what material used in the Skua is?
I have also purchased the montane extreme jacket which i find a superb addition to birding jackets. No more layering with the montane as it is an all in one jacket. Recommend this very highly.

If you want to compare jackets. then one of the birdfairs is a useful place to go. A lot of the different suppliers will be there and there are usually some good bargains to be had. I picked up a Country Innovations jacket half price from the last one I went to. The next fair that I know of will be at Slimbridge in early February.

At last - a long jacket. If I had known that was available a year ago...
In your surfing around the web did you look at the Paramo 'Nixwax' range - no liner to wear out or fail and rustle free! I wish mine was a bit longer but it is unbelievably comfy for a waterproof jacket.

I think the Slimbridge bird fair is on the weekend of 7th and 8th February. For more details see:

Country Innovation were there last year and Keith picked up a bargain fleece.
Mondell, who sell the tripod straps that we all seem to think are excellent, may also be there, as they were last year.
