I have heard occasional rumours that these may be making a reappearance for Trolls anniversary in 2015. Does anyone know if they are true, and is anyone else planning to stock up if they are?

In reply to davidbeynon:

As they make the Troll Omnis' in-house, I'm sure that if they thought there'd be sufficient demand, a short production run of jesters could be arranged - you could always contact them directly: sales@trolluk.com

In reply to davidbeynon:

Oh god, I do hope not, they were bad enough first time round…!!!

In reply to davidbeynon:

The ones with the panels of different colours? I'd buy a pair for old times' sake.

In reply to davidbeynon:

Oooo, thought this was regarding trolling on the daily mail

In reply to davidbeynon:
I suspect some Old Gits use them as winter thermals now....what an incentive not to have an accident!

In reply to davidbeynon:

I used to wear them to the pub with a pair of para-boots.

In reply to Forester3:

That's certainly a possibility. My wife got a one off pair of bright orange trouses from them for my birthday a couple of years back - one of their prototypes I believe. It may have hit the shops since but I haven't seen another pair.

There's nothing like browsing through absurdly patterned trousers on a rack to find the most offensive though. Getting them custom made would rob me of that experience

In reply to davidbeynon: the idea of the Jesters came from one of our rescue team members, Jim Duffy. Jim sadly died last year, but I think if they did do a batch quite a few of the team members would buy a pair in his memory.

In reply to davidbeynon:

About ten years ago, for a laugh, I bought a pair of red omni's which had the 'dancing troll' print. I wore them a few times until the novelty factor ceased - then I felt silly! I ended up selling them to a mate who has worn them every time he's been out climbing ever since - they just refuse to wear out!

Also, he thinks the pattern's great .

In reply to Forester3:
Onmis are great - light weight, fast drying, windproof & with a cut that doesn't restrict movement at all. What's not to like?

You can even get them in plain colours.

In reply to davidbeynon:


I've got a pair of those (also the red ones with the dancing trolls), and you're right.
The only thing I can fault them on is that they can feel rather sweaty when it's warm (the downside of the fast-drying/windproof thing).

In reply to Richard Wheeldon:


Fixed that for you.

In reply to dek:
That would be me! Always wear them as thermals when skiing so watch out if I have an accident!
