There is a detectorist over here who wears these and I've always meant to order a pair, he swears by them, not the cheapest but they are meant to do the business.

They are good items, and as Svaipa says very warm.

I have been detecting for 19 years and have tried quite a few different coats and then 3 years ago I bought a used ex Austrian army Gortex coat. Also bought ex army Gortex desert over trousers to go with the coat. Best 2 items of clothing I have ever used for detecting. Completely water and wind proof and no wet inside due to sweating. Loads of pockets in the coat. (No pockets in army ponchos).
Clicky linky thingy for coat..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Austrian-Army-Gore-tex-Jacket-Coat-Waterproof-Green-M65-Hood-Military-Surplus-/161126500714#ht_2801wt_1002

I have a pair of those, usually live in them through winter, I think mine must be a bit grubby as they tend to leak a bit, but if you want to stay warm you can't fault them, the hood is detachable and it's worth shopping round for them as the price varies, machine mart do them. But I do think that your hard pushed to find anything that will keep you dry for prolonged periods of wandering around a field in some of the downpours we've had recently Cheesy
