Fleece salopettes

[mart]

Does anyone know if anyone other than Mardale and Mountain Equipment make fleece salopattes. I'm after a pair and I like to REALY shop around B4 I buy.

Thanks, Mart.

Try googling polartec and thinsulate salopettes you might get a few more hits.

Saw these if they're any good to you ?

I'm pretty sure I've seen some in a Trespass shop before if you've got one handy.

Mardale; now there's a blast fom the past. Ibought some of their gear when I first went skiing as their factory was lass than a mile from my house (Preston).

Highly recommended; I still have 90% of the gear that I bought!

I used to have the Mardale version of the special 6 an it was excellent.
The salopettes they do are karisma fleece and they are kind of an outer garment. I'm after some fleece to go under my lowie guide bib. The mountain equipment ones are like what I'm after, they are just so Damn expensive, £90 - £100.

If these are any use to you

Gone off the usual names, wore an extreme jacket last year for a bit, decided to get my own this winter and haven't been cold, wet or felt a breath of wind through it. lovely kit, in my opinion.

Like em, got em, salopettes, smock, jacket.
I'm after something not quite as warm as those, if I'm working hard and its not super cold I sweat like a b.....d in the montane salopettes.

The wife bought a pair of these in a sale many moons ago

but they were too long for her so I "borrowed" them indefinately. :-{D)

Too warm for all but the worst UK conditions unless you are just standing about. I always ended up with unseamly amounts of flesh exposed to the air to get the right tempreture.

To be honest I prefer their trousers,

which I was using in the snow today. Two layers over the chest tends to make me sweat too much for the wicking to handle.

Your quite lucky mate, "borrowing" from her. My Mrs usually "borrows from me. Usually I spend ages looking for something, then I'll phone her and find out that, Ive borrowed it "darling"
GRRRRR.
