I think this is down to personal preference, I like the fit of the Stretchs, and they are certainly durable. I've never had any issue with the quality of the stitching of the zips. Many also rate the Hi-flexs, so the choice is yours:001_smile:

oh ok then cheers for that andy.

Stetch airs all the way. Had a few problems with zips but i believe thats all bin sorted? The build quality and durability is far better on the stretch airs. Hi flex's are alright but only last me about 2 minutes!

I've had hi flex for a while, but they tend to rip easy. I have strech airs now, and think I made the right choice. Fabric is a lot stronger and more resistant. But like Andy said, its personal choice really.

I would have stretch air but they don't make my size. Hi flex is what I use, I get through on average a pair a year. How long does other peoples PPE last?

i had over 2 years out of my last pair of stretch airs and they are in reasonable condition still....i wouldnt have bought a new pair if it werent for the fact i knew they would be going up due to the exchange rate

Looks like I've got to get a good deal on the stretch airs then Joe!, whats the best priced place for them guys?
