Is it worth getting one? 

1: Does it rain where you work? 

2: Is the rain enough that it's making you uncomfortable at work? 

3: As it's deductable workwear why have you not got one already?

gor-tex has served me well, I live in South Wales on the foot of the Brecon Beacons it rains and rains here, it’s my prefered protection. I go for the older hevyer Gortex as it’s stronger. Ex army have better suited gear for our line of work than the shop sold stuff in my opinion loads of it on eBay. The newer stuff is so light I don’t think it could take the day to day hammering it could be put through but if you like that sort of stuff  TKmax have end of line for half the price.

Best bet for that near you is the camp shop on the entrance to sennybridge camp, or it used to be, not been up there for a while

Not been to that shop, I’ll keep an eye out when next in the area, there used to be a good one in the industrial est in Brecon but that relocated.

I just ordered stuff from Aldi, they have a specialbuy on. Time will tell if it's any good. They've been hit and miss before. I've had great stuff and I've had naff stuff. Here's the link, anyway.

@slippy  something similar to that one, mine is an army old camouflage one. But it looks to be a very similar material
