Description

History / Summary

The British decided to redesign their waterproofs when they got the new Personal Clothing System (PCS). They took of the pocket and the hood and made the new suit from thinner material to save weight and to get a smaller pack-size. Anyhow, it's a good piece of kit if you don't need pockets and the hood.
