Did I read correctly that Pertex have gone bust? or is it just one manufacturer if Pertex? What will happen to all that Buffalo Pertex and Pile stuff?

 

[outdoorcode]

Pertex the company did indeed go into administration, there's more info here

Picked my Nanok endurance -10 bag up yesterday from Andrew (Outdoorcode)

Initial feelings on the bag are very good . I cannot recommend Outdoorcode highly enough, he met me halfway to save the postage and seems a very nice guy, by-the-way I understand that he has some cracking German Shepherd pups available.

I'm looking forward to trying the bag out this weekend but a truer test will come as the dread of Winter approaches

Was nice to meet you Shaun, hope the 2 of you have many happy nights together

Andrew

Ps with regards to the GSD's 1 boy and 1 girl left, both pure black and eating me out of house and home

Well I did So I contacted Andrew (Outdoorcode) and he couldn't have been more helpful. My new sleeping bag (+pillow! ) has just arrived and I'm chuffed to bits.
Very fast, no fuss and just what I wanted at an excellent price.
Highly recommended folks.

Cheers,
Toddy

Mine has also just arrived (along with pillow) - I've been very impressed with the service from Andrew (outdoorcode); he was very flexible with the delivery location (office instead of home), kept me up to date with ETA's and even gave me the tracking number just in case.

I can't recommend him highly enough.

Now to try out the bag!

(Shame the weather's so warm just now)

Just spoke to Andrew at outdoorcode about another Nanok bag. Just to warn you ....... we've been snapping them up and they have almost exauhsted their supply of discounted stock so if you want one you better move quickly ........

Outdoorcode Andrew was indeed very friendly and helpful on the phone!

Got mine this morning
Next day delivery. Friendly and put up with all my nagging questions. First rate service mate. Delighted with it

Hmm - spec says they're 195cm long when in use - seeing as I myself am 196cm long, this might be a tight fit!

Anyone out there got one to hand to let me know if you think a 6'5 person would fit in one?

Hi Match,
I do. There was also talk about gathering some mullien. Things are (thanks be) quietening down for me just now but you're back into Uni aren't you? If you don't get a try beforehand I'm bringing my Nanok to the Scottish meet.
I've just had my 6' son, Andrew, try it out....feet right to the bottom there's about 20cms spare to the top of his head, and he's built like you. Don't know if it helps; you could ask Outdoorcode if he'd would let you return if it didn't fit though.

Cheers,
Toddy

Edit; Just noticed Beer Monster has one too and he's in Edinburgh.

Andrew - very nice man to speak to,

Cheekily asked for a "Free Pillow" and he said yes - very nice man

The Endurance 0°C is actually 200 cm, as they are designed so you can out a Endurance -10°C inside them to make a sleep system.

Bags arrived this morning......fantastic!

Andy/outdoorcode....agree with everything already said

Andy is a nice guy and very helpful. I had problems with delivery to my specified address, so he re-arranged for it to be delivered to an alternative one

Cannot recommend Outdoorcode enough!

Only 4 bags left apparently, so order quickly

Thanks Andy.

match: my colleague here is 6'6' (about 198/199cm?) and he seems to think you'll be fine, having held my bag (Endurance -10) up to him. However, just to be sure, he's going to try the bag on later - I'll let you know what he thinks.

Got my -10 this morning as well. Lovely bag. I spent half an hour doing caterpillar impressions in the front room!! It's very well constructed and warm as hell. I can see my self sleeping with both side zips undone down to my feet in anything but the coldest of nights. All I've got to do now, is keep it away from swmbo as I'll never get to use it myself!!!

Very good service from Andrew and he's even thrown in a lovely Nanok pillow as well

Cheers,

Martin
