Don't know about SheGear, but I own 3 pieces of fuzzy rubber, Meg has 2
and my son 1. Great stuff. It's about the most comfortable paddling top
I've ever worn in the rain, makes you feel very duckish. Rapidstyle
(http://www.rapidstyle.com) makes the best, IMO. Patagucci's is good,
but $$$ and cut small. Wyoming Wear and REI have their own version with
a different fabric, but the Enterprise Mills fuzzy rubber with genyooine
Polartec is better.

AFAIK, it only comes in basic black.

It's been much easier to talk Meg into paddling in the off season now
that she wears FR instead of a wetsuit.
