Paramo Taiga Waterproof Fleece

Mrs Santa is branchiing out into the birthday business and for my most recent 21st got me a Taiga fleece which I've been dropping hints about for a while. (If you read this Mrs S - thank you!).The bumph sugggests that you can put it on over a waterproof (fuera?) and it will work just as well as underneath.

I find that a bit difficult to believe. Obviously the answer is to send our daughter out into the garden with it next time it's raining heavily and see how wet she is after a couple of hours. However I've been taught to do a literature search before starting experimental work so I'd be interested in what other people have found.Daughter says thanks in advanceMountain Walker Posts: 438 Munros: Hewitts: Wainwrights: Joined: May 14, 2012.

Here at The Mountaineer we stock a wide range of Paramo fleeces. If you have any questions about fleeces or any other outdoor clothing, do give us a call and we’ll be happy to help. Waterproof Paramo fleecesParamo’s Taiga Fleece the only one in this range that is waterproof, fantastic bit of kit to wear anytime, if it rains no problem this will keep you dry.

The Taiga Fleece on its own won't give you a Paramo waterproof solution. You'll need a shell layer over the top to do that (e.g. The Fuera windproof). Whilst it's not strictly a fleece (it's a micropile), the name should give you a clue as to the waterproofness you might expect.
