    Paramo

    I am another parmo fan, have had my stuff for about 10 years. Unlike most other waterproofs paramo is designed to be cleaned and reproofed in a washing machine, you can maintain the waterproofing in this way indeffinetely. I notice you are around Sheffield, CCC outrdoors (now go outdors)...
