There's a few options out there. Hilltrek (as mentioned) have a number of good models in single and double layers. Tilak has the Odin. Haar has one too. There is quite a lot of ventile used in more fashionable options which are well made and modelled on standard smocks, available used (Snow...

Woolpower top and bottom baselayer. 200gsm. Not new. They look pretty much unused, but I am giving them a good old wash :)

Who is voting for these people? It is nutty

Someone mentioned the Manly Patriot. Good knife that. Brisa make excellent kits.

Glad to see you found that E15, OP I have got one of those Titans that Pokem has. It is likeable, simple and very robust. I think I must find it a little bit heavy because I don't carry it that often, though. Mainly, I have an old Klarus, long out of production. But I have recently taken to...

A green mackinaw wool vest made by Filson - I have had it a while but only really got to understand it recently. Same with a Danielsson 7-12 reel. Just takes time for things to sink in.

I am fond of Herr Kneissler's knives.

That's mean trick; the water in the boots. Thanks for the hints about the warmness, SaraR. It is interesting that they seem to ride up on some people and slip down on others. :)

Thanks .. that's great info:)

Has anyone had a go of Paramo's Velez Adventure trousers? I am thinking about them for Autumn/Spring when it is cool but not so cold that I can wear the Enduros. @nigelp - Has the Adventure smock continued to work well in the wet for you?

- oops wrong thread

Spring's a long way off here. It's -20c but very sunny. Spring's not til April (if we're lucky) What I like most is the prospect, the anticipation of mid-Spring. Coolish, sunny weather with sculptural, dazzling couds, a light breeze and Hawthorn in full bloom. Brogues and brandy kind of weather.

I think, first, we should remember what the OP was referring to. A particular case, and a landmark, one made difficult to swallow because of the way these particular 'farmers' are actually hedge-fund owners who want to have holiday rentals and game shooting. Wildcampers aren't compatible with...

This one is new to me: They hang the man, and flog the woman, That steals the goose from off the common; But let the greater villain loose, That steals the common from the goose.

The c18th - C20th inclosure acts forced certain castes of people from the land and some of them had to live on the roads or in hedges when outside of those annual periods when agricultural wage labour/accommodation was available - which led to other problems including a generally held...

This is true. As well, it highlights the way that the often monocultural purposes landowners put their land to causes the problem of isolated parcels being disconnected from each other by commercial agriculture. Though that is a different conversation.

And your conscientious stewardship is appreciated, Broch. But, fall into disrepair? Left to its own devices it would wild and revert to a natural state

I don't have a back garden. I may or may not decide to camp in yours. But your claim to have me not there, to expel me, would depend eventually on the exercise of violence. That's all. It's very basic.

Look at the flatground Enzo/Brisa Trapper in O1. It is very good and available fully made up, kit form or blade alone. The Elver is brilliant. Mine's in flatground D2, but I'd love one in O1, and occasionally write to them to ask if they'll make it :) Both available in scandi grinds. I like...

You make an important point Brock. All land ownership is based in historical acts of violence, displacement and disposession. Romans, Saxons, Jutes and Normans successively invaded and killed and otherwise disrupted the lives of whoever was settled in Britain before them. Under the Tudors and...
