I can't say I've had the best experience with cloaks in the past, but if we were only after function, I guess we'd all be in goretex.

Anyhow, I've been pouring over caedmon's Bocksten writeup, and of course Greg's Modified Half Circle.
Has anyone some new experience to offer since, or is something in that general space still the conventional wisdom around these parts?
I assume pulling the neckhole significantly back from the leading face of the half circle- as Andy's watch cloak pattern does - serves to protect the front a bit more, though at the cost of needing to be tied or buttoned back when not needing that extra coverage. For those who've been experimenting a while - what's the "sweet spot" do you think of material in front?
And Greg - you say the "horeshoe" still functions as an extra blanket? That's a neat trick!
