Just interested to see what peoples opinions are on the worst items of outdoor clothing they have ever bought. Any items you would never buy again? Anything that really did not live up to the hype?
Not really bought, but for me it was anything the Army issued.
It's either too heavy, poorly designed, cheaply made or simply doesn't work.
NI rucksack is a prime example, i'd sooner throw a bin linear over my shoulder.
i've never read such a stupid post on any forum !
Ditto on the Karrimor boots, had two pairs, rubbish. Can't seem to get a good pair of boots these days without selling a kidney. Don't think that I've every had a pair of boots better than my RAF high leg DMS boots. Even my £95 boots from Mountain Warehouse have started to let water in between the sole and the leather upper.
Karrimor must have gone down hill on the boot front. Although I have a 45lt Sabre rucksack and love it very well made and strong.
