I almost pulled the trigger on a full set of HH gear last year but held off for some reason that I can't remember now and never did end up getting anything.
Have you been out in the cold rainy weather with the HH suit? I am just wondering how it does in that cold clamy type of weather.

Cold clammy weather is no problem - this stuff is warm - but .... because it does not breathe it gets warm on those not too cool days and you might sweat (which will make you cold).
I will tell you, out in the driving rain all day - it will keep you dry .....It's all a trade off really ....
I do have a semi-waterproof - lol - jacket that I use in the summer when it's just spitting and usually wear the helly bib underneath so I don't cook.
