Protective outerwear apparatus

The protective outerwear apparatus is a collapsible suit with a dual function bottom compartment. The compartment provides for insertion of accessory heat, for surface grip, and for a carrying case when the suit is collapsed. The suit is bonded to the inside of the compartment and extends therefrom. Other than the compartment cover, the apparatus comprises only one piece. Optional elastic cuffs are provided for sealing out inclement conditions. The full zipper suit forms a loose fitting body bag, with hood. Chemical heating pads and other warmers are provided for placement in the compartment bottom pouch. The outer bottom of the compartment is provided with a plurality of grips for aiding traction. The suit is provided in a variety of materials, which include neoprene and other rubberized materials. The apparatus thereby provides a rapidly deployed weatherproof suit which is easily stored and conveyed after use.
