Harkila coats

[dogmandont 9,802]

Decathlon jacket and trousers, really like their gear, not the most waterproof I've had but hard wearing and warm which is more important to me as everything ends up shredded on wire or when a terrier decides to settle under a big dirty blackthorn hedge.

Haven't read the whole thread but at first glance 1200 for a jacket sounds mental but then what about what people spend on thermals etc 

Or even a year on pints in the pub or cigs

Yes, he could be a bit of a curmudgeon.

My thoughts exactly,wasting cash with diddly squat to show,warm clothing is an investment.

I'm not going to rush in....I really liked the coat but I'll see early next year if it's still available and any cheaper. 

.....I don't drink or smoke

A set of decathlon will put me on for now

It’s these ones about £38 can’t go wrong. Wear mine twice a week through gorse wire bramble and no issue and for the money I’m not worried. Not the warmest when sat around but don’t get to many cold days down here lol. Tried percussion and kept ripping them by over stretching 

I have a pair of the thick moleskin type trousers from Game and a wax proof gilet I think it's quality gear for the money and does not cost a fortune. I don't see the point of spending shed loads of money on clobber in my case when all I do is mooch around the local woods with the catty .
