"You can tell the quality of fabric and craftsmanship. classic item you’ll see at every shoot, and for at matter in the City from Autumn through to Spring. I will be able to stay warm and dry standing for 10 hours in sodden conditions, whilst shooting on a Scottish moor. True to size, with a bit of stretch to allow a discerning gentleman an opportunity to enjoy a decent lunch"
