Smock

Yes, I have one of these. Find it to be superb. It would be designed to be worn as an outer layer; it wouldn't exactly keep out extreme cold itself. It is very waterproof and breathes well. It has Velcro straps on the sleeves but no inner cuff, this suits me fine but some like an inner cuff.
The greys fleece smock is a cracker. Not waterproof but lined. In crap, cold conditions I wear the smock over the fleece, snug as a bug in a rug!!!!
