Many have probably heard about this bit of kit already and some of you might be a bit bored of hearing about it but they really are blimmin' good!
-Warm as toast.
-Almost completely windproof
AND
-Pretty damn rainproof!
Just bin testing it out in heavy rain for 3 hours and my baselayer is dry as when i started .
Of course the outside of the pullover was quite wet but i've bin inside for maybe 15 mins and it almost dried out.
As for when it 'was' wet it certainly didn't seem much heavier as people say wool does.
All in all this pully seems to take all the negatives of wool and simply cast them aside. I don't think i've ever felt out manned by an item of clothing before...
And although it may seem like i'm going over the top i'm slightly fearful of in the same way indigenous tribes are fearful of the weather; it recieves so much more respect than my other clothes so that it'll continue to do well for me.
I even named it Arnie due to it muscular shape and Austrian origin.
Great bit of kit, got mine for 16 or 17 quid from endies but it definitely worth the higher price tags you can find elsewhere as i i think got the very last one from endies.
Hope this helps someone. Ivan.
