Malt 379 Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Get to the army surpless and get some gortex over-trousers. Look out for a good pair with no snags etc. Really light & waterproof. You should get some for under £20. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skycat 6,174 Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 I bought my Goretex over trousers from this guy: very helpful, and they were only about £20, very good if your'e on a budget. His email is: sales@Camo4U.co.uk or if your'e feeling flush then visit the John Norris site undefinedhttp://www.johnnorris.co.uk/system/shopassistant.htm loads of stuff: leggings, over trousers etc. Not all at mad prices either. You can give them a bell and order by phone too and they're very helpful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thurso jack 3 Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 what i like about the rams are you can wear them outwith hunting and there not too thick that you cook in them, they keep you cold when you want to be and warm and dry when you need to be, if that makes sense? im planning another pair as my present ones are a bit tired Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest WILF Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Agree with Jack and Jasper.........if you are doing a lot in thick cover, then at a discount the Barbour may just have the edge Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LOL Gotta agree, not worth buying cheap stuff as it never lasts as long, as well as sounding like a crisp packet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
