trenchfoot 4,243 Posted March 19, 2013 Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 I have had a nomad quad rider for about eight years now and it has been a great bit of kit. As such I bought a gameshoot coat for this season and it has been equally good. This one is in the tweed pattern and is not quite as overly warm as the green smock I had originally. My question is, has anyone tried the Nomad fleece trousers/legwear? And if so, do you find them overly warm and what Nomad fabric were are they? Cheers, Trench Quote Link to post

WILF 48,101 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Has anyone got the stealth tweed breeks?.......are they good kit? Quote Link to post
trenchfoot 4,243 Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Don't know about the breeks Wilf, but the material is very soft, light and quite warm. Very waterproof, but can get heavy if you don't shake the water off. If you don't it takes ages to dry. Better than any itchy wool tweed. If they are not too warm, then I may bite the bullet and get a pair of the trousers. Would get Breeks, but only wear them a few times season these days and think I,d get my money's worth more from trousers. Gone to earths comment about gorse is valid though. They dont rip or shred as such, but can end up a bit "plucked" 1 Quote Link to post
