This is a jacket for extreme conditions that retails for $650. I found a &#8220;new&#8221; one on eBay for $200 that had been the (unworn) backup jacket of the seller. I couldn&#8217;t find used OS2 bibs, so I bought a new pair on Amazon for $210 (they retail for $250). From the same seller as the OS1 jacket, I got the yellow bibs for $70. I also purchased the &#8220;coastal&#8221; (looks like an OS3) jacket on the right for $60. So for less than $550, I got a complete medium-weight and heavy-weight set. The total retail for the four garments new would be about $1,500. Three of the four garments are essentially (or actually) new. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been putting off buying foul weather gear, in part because I have not needed it in the Sea of Cortez, but mostly because it is so darn expensive.
