: While waiting for my Wested (it's been over 2 1/2 yrs and counting) I was wondering if it should never be exposed to rain (of course unless it's been waterproofed)?
: Has Peter suggested anything for waterproofing (without making it into a gloppy oily mess)?
: Thanx as usual!

Andrea,
There have been previous postings on this topic in some of the older vaults. Personally, my Wested jacket has been exposed to a lot of rain, even last month's dousing in the seasonal monsoons of Thailand. But by hanging it up and letting it air dry slowly, it's still as supple as the day it came out of the bag. -MP
