POLL: Foul Weather Gear

[HIT N RUN]

I have used only Grundens for years now but can't understand why they don't have a fly zipper. Maybe Swedes never have to take a leak......

Yeah Tom, I just bought the same one you & I have from Mike Keller with a zipper. I love it. I sold the old 1 half price to a friend. Sure wish I had gotten the zipper one in the first place. Not sure if they made it then tho.

Edit, whoops you were talking about a fly zipper for the bottoms. I was talking about the jacket part versues the pull over type which proved to be a pain to get on & off with underlayers in the cool season.

White Grundens. They show the tuna blood reel good. And the pull over fleece is great for when it gets nippy.

grundens all the way. I have a Helly raincoat and it soaks right through.

I have aquired a little bit of everything over the years. Foul Weather gear comands a large part of my closet. The "grundies" are hard to beat. For warmer weather, I have had a pair of High Seas since mid-80's(retired now but can't seem to throw them away). I hope I don't get laughed off the board but I bought the West Marine Offshore Exporer set off of e-bay last year at a steal because of the zipper and breathable aspect. Got to try them out on a couple of those long, cold days bluefinning this winter. I must say that for comfort, I have never worn anything like them. I don't think they are going to clean up too well after a blood bath, but who cares. I must say, the zipper is awesome! They breath very well also. Needs to be pretty cold to break them out.
