Don't know mate, I suspect they may be a bit similar to our overall/ two piece gear looks good brand new but stains easily. As I said before I got two sets in as a trial (was really disappointed they only had the very large off the peg so way to big for me :wink:)and the guys won't let go of them, so I think it will some time before we get a good indication on wear, durability & whether they stay looking good. And at three times the cost of the Rainbird jackets, I'm concerned about those factors; but I will let you know how they stack up. It was a pity that the liner can't be removed though, as it would make them more versitile (when we were in Newcastle NSW SES had a similar jacket that they wear like a CFS turn out coat- it was the only good bit of gear they had) ideal for those times when its a bit chilly, but not enough for a full blown coat. May be if our Hq people decide to buy them, then that decision will change
