climbing jacket

[Stephen Blair]

Like the sound of this new Stein.

 

Splashed out £90 on a North Face Circadian Paclite Goretex last year, which is excellent but is a little on the flimsy i.e. tearable side.

 

The black one (I got olive) is £130 for you fashionistas.

 

if you want something seriously tuff and strong, spend a bit extra and get a swazi, bramble and brash proof. you will get 4-5 years easy out it mate.

Good answer Steve! Impressed you are getting 4/5 years out of a jacket that works well.

i only bought another one because i kept leaving my original in the mog, it is as good as new, just the cuffs are a bit worn, but the new jacket has rectified that wee problem by making them out of neoprene

That sounds like the one for me when I have ripped my North Face to shreds!

 

Got a nice Swanndri shirt as well, which is still warm when wet, very tough but weighs nearly 900KGS and smells like a sheep. I can't work with a hard-on.
