I’m just about to order a kaiwaka weather shield hoodie anyone got one? I’ve tried the storm force ones but for me they were far to heavy for working in.
They do one with a hood BUT it’s only available in blue!lv'e got the coat and leggings proper waterproof but needs to be colder,that looks better
Yeah I’ve got a long sleeve one and a short sleeve one. Really like them but they’re not cheap! I probably wouldn’t buy one if I had to pay full price. The fancy Kiawaka straps on the wrists have both come unglued and just flap about so I cut them off! Again they’re not really suitable for heavy rain. More like showerproof!I’m just about to order a kaiwaka weather shield hoodie anyone got one? I’ve tried the storm force ones but for me they were far to heavy for working in.
I’ve just bought one of these. No good for out in the pissing rain all day but great for working in. Really warm and no arm restriction. View attachment 911462
Yeah I got it direct when they had their online Covid sale. Paid about £110 delivered.Didn’t think the shortsleeved ones were available in Uk; or have you ordered from kiwiland direct?!

Yeah you can but it takes a couple weeks and you can get stung with import duty! If you know anyone out there you’d be better off getting them to send it as a gift.Didn’t realise you could by from them direct in the uk.
One other thing with the Kaiwaka hoodie, they do suffer with bleaching in the sun! Can just about see it in the pic and the dodgy cuff. View attachment 911508

It was sent from NZWhere did you get that I’ve not seen them advertised in the UK?
they aren’t waterproof are they?
Do you think it would be any good for deer stalking?yeah had one for years! Not a bad smock tbh but hot when your working!
Got a Ocean /Abeko smock best work Waterproof I’ve had great hood and handy front pouch pocket lightweight and waterproof and wind proof and under a 100 quid.
Not had that problem had mine over twelve months wore it through last winters monsoon still seems good.I bought one last year it’s rubbish all the plastic coating is coming off. Wouldn’t recommend.
