Korda DryKore Black 15k Waterproof Jacket

Product Information

They’re not really made for use all of the time. Ideally, you’ll have decent under layers that will keep you warm and you’ll only need the waterproof when it starts to rain.

The guys have also thought about the cuffs too, extending them to ensure water doesn’t run down your wrists when casting.

Limb Armour – CE certified EN1621-1: 2012 Level 2 limb protectors for both the shoulders and elbows. This is the highest standard of armour currently available in motorcycle protection in the world.

With that in mind, you might want to consider something with a decent waterproof rating. This is usually measured with a rating called hydrostatic head. In addition, all foundation panels are double safety-stitched with super strong bonded nylon thread in our proprietary DuraStitch™ pattern. Think about the times you put a few spombs out in the rain and return with soaked joggers. Or when you nip out for a wee in your thermals then return to the sleeping bag wet.If you’re looking for something waterproof and windproof, you won’t go far wrong with this. Incorporating a 10,000mm hydrostatic head material, the F12 offers more than enough protection from the elements. This enormous, trench style coat is full length, covering you from head to ankle, depending on how tall you are.

Like most of the Snugpak range, it’s stuffed with their unique ‘Softie’ filling which has extreme thermal properties but remains incredibly light. Whilst most old school anglers will be aware of the brand, it’s only in recent years that they’ve made a range specifically for fishing.

You can’t do this with the big, bulky winter suits. It’s all or nothing! Personally, my layering system includes a thermal layer, mid layer and outer waterproof layer:

To be honest, there isn’t much difference between this and the original Snugpak Sleeka which forms part of my own winter clothing. There is the addition of a hood and some thumb loops, but technically they are very similar. High tensile woven fabrics tailored with a focus to maintain an ideal strength-to-weight ratio is a KORDA® hallmark and provides the rider with a light yet resilient protective garment. It’s true storm attire to say the least. Being both waterproof and windproof, it has you covered in all seasons. It can be used as a standard rain coat, but I see it’s biggest uses as a coat that you can grab and throw on when we need to exit the bivvy in the rain.

For them heavy Autumn showers I’m confident it would perform well, especially with the highest hydrostatic head rating in this guide.
