Looking for a durable / water-proof jacket predominantly for dog walking, school runs and general jobs out and about.
Never owned or even tried a wax jacket. My dad loved his fishing, and he owned one for years. Sadly, he's not around to ask - hence this post, and turning to you guys for advice.
I've never been too sure if they are more of a fashion item for those who do not live/work in the country (no offence intended) - or they would be a worthy investment. I'm not going to jump in and buy a premium product such as a Barbour - also understand they need TLC such as reproofing.
Would they do a job and are there any gateway brands?
Thanks, Richard
