Berghaus do a Paclite jacket that's pretty good for most forms of mountaineering for (I think) about 160 squids, but it's often possible to pick them up cheaper in sales.

I've got one of these, it's fine. Have run a couple of mountain marathons and travelled around with it a fair bit.

And in the kitchen there's a leaflet from Go Outdoors in Sheffield you can get a North Face wind proof and water resistant jacket for 17 quid.

Mines a medium and I'm 6'1" and slim. So I guess the sizings pretty generous.

What is it with R&R?!

I just tried that link, for £50 I quite fancy another jacket. But when I try I just get "You currently have no items in your basket".
Not the first time this has happened either.
Hey ho.
