Best Camo Raingear for 2017

 

Each winter brings a few certainties: decreased daylight, football playoffs … and cold, rainy weather. And forecasters say Winter 2017-’18 might be especially chilly and wet.

 

Still, modern outdoors enthusiasts remain undaunted by the prospect of dreary drizzle or sideways sleet. That’s because manufacturers continue to produce high-tech rainwear that keeps folks warm and dry while sitting in a stand or stadium bleachers. Here’s a quick rundown of some of the best Realtree camo-adorned rainwear on the market.

 

ArcticShield Classic Waterfowl Parka with Retain Technology

Dressed in Realtree Max-5, this parka has a durable Nylon rip-stop outer shell, and is water- and windproof, with a relaxed fit.

Retain captures more than 90 percent of body heat and maintains 90 percent heat longer than similar products. The parka also features several zippered pockets, an adjustable draw-cord hood, a chin cover with hook and loop closure, and adjustable wrist cuffs with hook and loop tabs.
