Nitrous
OK - now it is fair to say it really does NOT rain much here. But right now we are being lashed by Storm Emma and even the ducks are in hiding.
As part of my "Perfect All Weather" layering thinking - I wanted to ask
How many of you have an integrated rain hood in your wet weather gear? - And does it actually work?
Right now - I have NO HOOD - it sucks.
If you talking about bike gear i have a one piece pullover suit we call "The Condom" its ugly and gets smelly but is oh so useful. It has no hood but tightens closely round the neck so seals well (see why now?). No leaks down neck. they dont last long about two years but are cheap.
Nothing worse when that cold trickle of water finally reaches and starts to pool around your testicles.
For working and tramping yes i have a rain coat with a hood and it is essential.
