Arktis Waterproof Smock £59 GB

[Melonfish]

well i've had it out in all weathers so far and i must say it really is very very waterproof, not to mention wind-proof ;D
however i have two MAJOR gripes out this product.

1. SWMBO will not let me wear it in bed.
2. its IMPOSSIBLE to take a shower with this item on, i came out dryer then when i went in!


just wanted to say big thank you to LBL, TeeDee and kev for this, still figuring what to do with all this bloody paracord too

I had a little parcel arrive in the post today in the form of my prize from Kev for posting a pic of me wearing my new smock

This is what I got...

A lovely thick pair of socks - I will be wearing these this weekend.
A bundle of paracord to add to my bundles I got with my smock.
An Arktis map case - really top quality bit of kit this. Folds out to take a full size OS map folded in two.
A cracking little case/pouch thingy. I'm not sure what this is actually for but I'm using it as a case for my money, phone, pen, paper, door keys, etc to keep them tidy in my backpack.

Well chuffed

Big shout out to Kev - I have never experienced customer satisfaction from a company to this level. Endicotts definately have a new loyal customer here!

I also had a hand written note inside which said 'It's been a really good laugh dealing with you all - Do pass my regards to all @ BCUK'

So, who else has taken a pic of them wearing their smocks???

Kev at Endicotts texted me this morning to say that his email comms is down - and has been for several days. he is trying to sort it amongst all the regular business. He apologises if anyone has emailed him over the last couple of days but he has not been able to pick these emails up or send responses.

To take the pressure off I thought it best to run a second GB list and as soon as we are up to the right numbers an order can be put it. I'll run a second, fresh thread here: http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=64294

Wow, what a great bit of kit. Kev put one aside for me till I was able to sort payment - superb service (even accommodated a change of size at the last minute). Thanks also to LBL and TeeDee, great work fellas - I'm a Dan Cam convert!

Just need it to rain here now

[Twodogs]

Whats the story behind these smocks ?
Canceled order?
To many were made?
Trials item ?
Change in Danish Cam?

Just wondered

[littlebiglane]

Over-run in production I heard. Can never be sure exactly as I am not in the know. I can ask Kev if you like. But I remember that on another website that was offering them (before they ran out of stock) that the word over-run was mentioned.

 

[Twodogs]

No problem mate just nosey

Me too, the wait is killing me!

judging by the fact that they all have the velcro strips on them and have the danish flag sewn on i would say that these were definitely an over run in production for the danish army. their loss , our gain!

Mine arrived yesterday, not had chance to use in anger yet but it's a bl***y brilliant bit of kit. Can't thank LBL, Tee Dee and everyone at Endys enough for the GB. Absolutely excellent price too. Mike

Do you think there is any chance of me sneaking in on the end of this GB? I came online today looking for a waterproof jacket, and This looks like it could be just the job.

There's a second GB going through atm found here: http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=64294&highlight=arktis+waterproof+smock
either way drop kev at endicotts a mail and he should sort you out

 

[SteveW]

Doh! I must have had too many tabs open and posted on the wrong thread. Thanks Melonfish, I will speak to Kevin and see what he says.

 

[TinkyPete]

Sorry it took so long to get funds together but now paid
Can hardly wait till it arrives now.

It looks great and isn't DPM (I have to wear that for work)
