Some seem OK or good (inflatable PFD/harness by Sospenders but branded by
West, for example), but I tend to have an irrational bias against much of
the other West-branded stuff. With regard to foul weather gear, I wouldn't
be surprised if some careful Internet shopping wouldn't yield you a Gill
outfit of the same type as what you're considering at West for the same
price or even better. (Spend the extra bucks on breathable stuff -- it's
really worth it, IMHO).
Just my $0.02,
