Green Wellie Shoes

Advantages: Dry feet
Disadvantages: None I have found yet

...made by a company called Willowdale Products and there is quite a selection to choose from ranging from the usual green wellies through to multi-coloured and patterned ones; from traditional boots through to shoes and clogs. The range for ladies is the Jolie range with Jolie Wellington Boots, Jolie Ankle Boots and Jolie Clogs which all come in bright colours and patterns. In fact, I opted for the Buckingham Shoe which is a shoe version of the well ...
...I should mention that it does also come in navy blue. It is made of PVC so is fully waterproof but, like wellies, has a cotton lining for comfort. It also comes with the same type of substantial sole so you feel quite safe in slippery conditions. I have to say that they have already been well worn as my main task after I bought them was to cut the grass. I hesitate to say 'lawn' as by this time the grass had grown so long that it more resembled ...

Review of Willowdale Jolie Shoes

Dry as a dry thing

Advantages: keeps me dry and warm
Disadvantages: None

Regatta Packaway II Womens Waterproof Jacket When the summer holidays wer looming and it became clear that it would be wet, it was imperative that i finally bought myself some kind of light weight waterproof jacket. I don’t know a lot about these things but knew that I wanted something which would keep me reasonably dry and would fit nice and neatly in the boot of the car. In my experience, if I just throw a coat into the boot, it ends up filthy ...
...I could then lose!! WHAT DOES IT PROMISE? So, I have a new outdoor jacket, waht will it do for me? The jacket makes a number of promises: • Isolite 5000 fabric forms a barrier against water droplets, so I won’t be saturated • Permeable to water vapour and so lets perspiration escape • Windproof • Isotex coated polyamide which is a fully waterproof and breathable fabric which is heat taped. So, there we have it, a coat which should allow me ...

Review of Berghaus Spectrum Hat

All in all a good buy.

Advantages: Lightweight and comfortable
Disadvantages: Inclusive belt isn't the best

If you're looking for some lightweight, comfortable walking trousers but don't want to break the bank then these are a pretty good purchase. With an average retail price of £30 - £35 they are a good few quid cheaper than some of the more fashionable brands but retain the quality of an established company. With more pockets than you would have stuff to put in them these trousers are an excellent choice for the outdoor enthusiast and achieve a successful ...
...you to the Arctic they are warm, comfortable, light and quick drying. These trousers also look pretty' good. Whilst arguably pretty low down on your list of priorities when you're up a mountain, they're actually casual enough that you wouldn't look foolish or too out of place in the pub on your way home. The belt that they come with seems a little suspect and I would probably advise replacing with a more substantial one as far as negatives go I ...

Ideal for those active holidays . The only disadvantage is that if you are sitting for a long time when wearing them the zip can be uncomfortable and dig into your thighs . ...
