Gill OS4 - Offshore Foul Weather Jacket

My previous Gill offshore jacket had all the bells and whistles with the breathable fabric and the rubber cuffs and the super high, warm collar and on and on.

My new foul weather jacket - the new OS4, well it's black and how cool is that? It has all the quality of my old Gill with twice the clever engineering.

I hate it when I am using some piece of expensive marine gear and Irealize that no one ever tried out the gear in offshore conditions. They couldn't have because if they had they would have come to the conclusion that their design was all wrong.

The guys at Gill got it all right. They took a product that worked well offshore and made it better. I like the new silver liner, it is more durable than the old. The external vest pocket is very handy. I used to hate digging into my warm foulies to skip a song on my MP3 player. Even the hood fits better.

Did I mention how cool it looks in black (still with all the reflectors and the dayglow hood for finding you in the dark ... if necessary."
