bright yellow rain slicker ... i am concerned that 90% PVC / 10% poly will just be way too unbreathable, especially as all my other jackets are waxed cotton or goretex.

i do have a 100% nylon coach jacket that is not too bad with shorts and a shirt.
how can you tell how "sweaty" a synthetic is going to be? does it have to do at all with the variations in the density of the "weave" or is it just choice of material?

I have a raincoat like that and it is...not breathable. Good for walking the dogs in the rain, though.
― some lady (La Lechera), Sunday, 11 September 2011 17:09 (twelve years ago) link
supposedly it has a "breathable lining". maybe i just need to go XL so that there's tons of air circulation. i <3 the color so much.
― mr peabody (moonship journey to baja), Sunday, 11 September 2011 17:19 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, I would imagine that a raincoat like this made now would be superior to the 80s version that I am still wearing around. Mine is green and has whales on the inside.
― some lady (La Lechera), Sunday, 11 September 2011 17:21 (twelve years ago) link
i think breathable lining is just a layer of mesh? i've had that before on rain jacket and it did nothing to help the breathability.

are those pants double reverse pleat? sort of square for my taste.
― mr peabody (moonship journey to baja), Monday, 12 September 2011 14:20 (twelve years ago) link
i can't look at that rue la la link.
you can't argue with a classic two-button navy jacket, but what's the material? is it about $300?
― mr peabody (moonship journey to baja), Monday, 12 September 2011 14:21 (twelve years ago) link
single pleat, pin dot medium weight wool
― elmo argonaut, Monday, 12 September 2011 14:25 (twelve years ago) link
$350, marked down from $895 msrp -- i guess that is more than %50 off duh

― elmo argonaut, Monday, 12 September 2011 14:43 (twelve years ago) link

No. Gang-style vests not a good look unless you actually have your own, with patches & stuff that you started on when you were 14.

i mean i really there there is too much said about "classics" and "investment pieces" and "quality construction" wrt #menswear but i think that buy is all those things & totally justifiable

that navy suit came in -- it's super nice and the jacket fits perfectly in the shoulders. phew. i'll obviously need to take it to a tailor -- I need the pants hemmed and the sleeves lengthened, maybe I'll have the trouser legs tapered a little and the waist suppressed, but all in all it's exactly the sort of starter suit i've been looking for.
