Hey all,
I am looking to purchase a IECS (olive drab) goretex combat jacket throught the internet. I was wondering you guys in the military could tell me what your experience is like with this jacket. My intentions were to use it fishing/backpacking for protecting against rain and downpours in summer in Ontario/Maritimes region. I was wondering if it is too hot too wear in the summer. Some have said the U.S. ECWCS goretex jacket would be better to use as a shell. I assume both use three layer goretex. Any opinions.
