New waterproof 'oversuit'
Can't afford a new set of textiles so thought I'd dig out the oversuit I used to use for my leathers (the tribal one from Hein Gerike with a lining) and found all three zips are crap one is completly bust.
I tried some in Fowlers but couldn't get them over my boots even using the magic placcy bag trick. Went to Hein Gerike to try on theirs got it on alright. I'd forgotten what a polava it is putting one of those things on I must have lost half a stone getting the first one on, deffo makes me want a set of textiles again and I had resigned myself to waiting till I can get a set. But then I went to the market at lunch time and found some waterproof overs at a stall that fit the bill, slopette style trousers and a big jacket. AND SOOOO MUCH EASIER TO PUT ON What do you recon?
