npt1 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Hi All, When you are using your snowblower and the wind is not helping you, what type of outer clothing is best for the snow blowing back at you, not sticking on your outerwear??? Is it nylon ?? Must be waterproof also.. Thanks in advance. Lloyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisherman Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 This is a fishing forum.. so I'll give you a fishing answer. Wear your floater suit ! How about your Gortex rainsuit, after all it's water in another state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NANUK Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Depending how cold it is, mostly I just wear my snowmobile bibs, any waterproof/replant jacket, a toque and gloves, you don't want to sweat while out in the cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizzo Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I pretty much turn and run when the wind shifts (and here I thought the guys with the cover were sissies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leecher Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Lloyd, when there's wind I don't even go out... I just wait until it dies down. Usually after sun down the winds diminish and I say usually, not always the case My old hunting jacket, pair of insulated rubber boots with my beaver skin hat and mittens is what I use all the time for snowblowing the snow Leechman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neighbours laugh at first but I stayed dry and they didn't. Don't over dress underneath one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2fan Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 If you don't want to spend the dollars on a floater suit. Wait until Wally world has their clearance sale on the remington parkas and pants. Totally waterproof/windproof and you can use them for fishing in the cold. I have been out in rain/sleet storms for hours in mine and never had the moisture come through. In snow been out all day with it snowing real heavy same thing. The best part though is that the outside of it is like cotton so it doesn't get stiff and therefore restrict your ability to move... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
