Default Cortland Clothing????

Does anybody have any experience of Cortland clothing, good or bad I'd like to know?

Looks like more cold weather at the end of the week so I guess my local waters will be frozen up, still the Fly box is overflowing...

Belt and Braces.....

The Jacket I was looking at is waterproof but having worked in both the Ski and Motorcycle industry and having years of experience of riding for a living in all weathers I know that few fabrics will keep you dry forever.

I am on a budget and need something to get me by for now until I save up and invest in some clobber that will last a good few years.
