swanseajack 227 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 When you're out crawling around fingering moles holes, getting all muddy, what do you wear ?? anyone recommend some good waterproof and strong trousers, my barbour legging things have finally given up the ghost, I've been through, 3 sets of 'Waterproof' over trousers since chrimbo, latest pair haven't last 3 days.. due to me hedge hopping.!!! I might be back to barbour unless anyone got some suggestions.. Gloves I use are not waterproof, they're the ones used to stop urself cutting your hands to ribbons on sharp edges, any suggestions...?? My Danner Boots need drying out as they've had a pasting recently, so I went and bought some wellies today... fcking hate wellies!! waterproof coat, jacket ??? what do you wear ?? that's easy to hose the mud off ??

DIDO.1 22,840 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Le chamou wellies, [bANNED TEXT] kicking mole hills over in boots they get all clogged up and need cleaning so its wellies for me. I wear blue nitrile gloves, not for scent just to keep my hands clean, I get all cracked skin with soil keep drying out on my hands. Iv worked outside my whole life but only moling makes my hands go like that. But my supply of free nitrile gloves is running out so any ideas for what gloves other people wear would be good.
