[Guest AngelicAcid]

As above, whats the best allround jacket, looks good, very functionable, not in any realtree though.

Must be 4 season.

Been thinking paramo, as there was a thread a few days ago, and got me interested.

Know what you mean mate, just got another for a tenner as the old was too small.

Fancied someting a bit different, and less attracting.

I've been umming and arring about a decent jacket for a few years now and my research, on here and other places brought me to a shortlist of Swazi, Kammo and Paramo. I'm going up to Appleby in a couple of weeks and I'm intending to get a Paramo jacket while I'm there so will keep you updated as to how it performs.

 

The main problem I find, with me being a bit of a hairy hobbit, is perspiration as much as rain.

[Guest AngelicAcid]

I tried the paramo halcon jacket, its spot on, but 280a bit steep at the minute.

Daiwa do nice warm, waterproof olive coloured jackets at a fair price, I think it's the wilderness range you need to look for
