I first had a Driza-Bone jacket bought for me as a teenager by my parents, they were considered widly expensive for a kids coat then but it was found on a market somewhere! Putting it on I felt like a queen recieving her royal cloak, and once on I refused to stay indoors! Needless to say as soon as it was outgrown another one was demanded and so on until I eventually stopped growing! needless to say however I still have several different styles hanging up now, one for walking the dogs.....one for mucking out.....one for going racing.....one for riding etc etc. My Driza-Bone is no longer just a jacket that keeps you cool in spring, warm in winter, dry at any time of the year and is lightweight enough to wear all day, it is now the essiential must have for visiting local cross country courses in, or the local point to point meetings. The best bit is-the pockets are big enough for hip flasks too! Roll on hunting! needless to say my Drizabone has got me through many scrapes to date, gateshutting in torrential rain, falling off into barbed wire, being shot! (although i do not suggest that the police swap bulletproof vests for Drizabone jackets!), more to the point i do not think that i could live without it!
Easy to maintain, buy a tin of waterproof wax and cost once a year.
Available from all good country clothing outlets or online. (always try ebay first!)
tHE BEST RAIN COAT I EVER BOUGHT IN MY LIFE, AND GUESS WHAT IT WILL LAST THE REST OF MY LIFE. DRY AS A BONE. AND IF YOU HAVE A BIKE OR MOTOR OR HORSE ITS EXCELLENT
