Quick shout out for these guys.


Went down there today looking for a thorn-proof coat and trousers for work. Expected to come back with a cheap waxed jacket and chaps but ended up with this: Verney Carron Rapace Hunting Jacket

Rip-stop, fully waterproof jacket and trousers for £165 and the quality looks impressive.

Hadn't been there before. Family firm, mostly an on-line supplier but they have a little shop area out front and I was impressed by the service, quality and prices. A couple of locals came in while I was there (horsey types and shooters) and said they swore by them.
Their own brand clothing is excellent value, made in the UK and looks way better than the far eastern stuff in the local agri-store. Need a new coat for beating? How about a waxed cotton jacket, UK-made for £40? You can't go wrong.

I shall definitely buy there again.
 
The Verney Carron gear I bought is French, made specifically for - and bought heavily by - the domestic hunting and shooting market. The French (bless em) take their shooting very seriously. No lifestyle wannabes like we have. If they think it's good, it probably is.
