“Top quality. Very little sign of wear. All fittings perfect. Enough adjustment to get a good fit at waist and shoulders. Sufficient room to use as over trousers. Leg fastenings open right to the top - it is possible to put these on without removing boots. Waterproof? - yes, and even the weak spot (leg fasteners) could be sealed up to prevent ingress of water.”

“Very happy. I'm a nominal 34 inch waist for most trousers and 29 inch leg, so initially ordered the Small size. Whilst these just about fitted, they were a little tight and didn't allow enough movement to comfortably climb a couple of stairs at a time. I exchanged these without hassle for the 36 to 38 inch waist, 30 inch leg which are fine if a trifle large but the braces allow them to fit well over walking trousers and jeans. Very comfortable to walk in, they are in excellent condition and have a tough, 'non-rustley' outer shell over the Gortex lining. Not had opportunity to wear in heavy rain but I have the matching jacket and once washed in Nikwax Techwash and wash-in waterproofer that is fine in a downpour. Only thing I was a bit disappointed in was having paid for the original trousers to be returned for an exchange I was charged a second lot of postage for the replacements to be sent out. I quite understand that the company can't keep footing the postage for repeatedly exchanging items, but I would have thought that they would at least send out the first exchange for nothing as good will? One star off for that. However, the quality of the kit supplied is perfect and the delivery very prompt. This is my second purchase from the company and it won't be my last!”

“These are really comfortable and completely waterproof. I've been very pleased with them as I've worn them out in heavy rain a few times now and they've kept me completely dry. They're really well taped and sealed - the taping and sealing looks properly robust and permanent, not like it might start to peel. The larger fit and the use of braces to keep them up has been really useful as well as it lets air move about and has stopped me from getting sweaty.”
