Dry Suite BARGAIN?

[peteb]

I was in Bicester village (outlet centre) on Saturday, just off the M40, they have Helly Hanson Drysuites reduced from £399 to £99, be careful as some are marked up as £149 so get the ones with the £99 tag on These are NOT the breathable ones but are good value for money. They have the rubber ankles (not boots, although there are some oftem there as well), cuffs and neck seal. LOvely colour with a front zip but no convenience (fly) zip, so I guess you pays your money and takes your chance

They are in the back left hand side of the shop, if you are feeling really flush they have an ocean flotation survival suite for some ridiculous amount of money, reduced from say £899 to £400 or so, may be of use to certain individuals on here

There is also a Musto shop that has some very smart drysuites and survival suits, although a bit more expensive.

I hope it is of help to someone, but with winter coming and the rush on these drysuits don't hang about, apparently it is the fashion, nearly everyone in Bicester walks around in them now

Wow Pete! If only you were half as funny as you think you are you wouldn't keep on getting banned from forums!

Take a week to cool down . . .

I looked at these about 2 months ago, so if they still have them they are not exactly flying out of the shop!
I personally did not think that they where that good a bargain, I think if you got one you would soon wish you paid a bit more & got a breathable one with boot for around £175 to £200!

How true got a non breathable one and would not get another, time to pass it on to the other half and get me a new one

I would strenuously NOT recommend the HH ones.
A mate of mine tried one on in a Lymington shop.
I thought he was going to die. By the time he had got it on his body temperature has risen to an alarming degree and his face had turned the colour of beetroot. By the time he got it off he must have lost a litre or so of fluid. His clothes were soaking.
Funnily enough they were also priced at £99.
Maybe they were the same ones? And still unsold?

Me and the missus are thinking about getting a pair of Typhoon dry suits with moulded boots.

Suggestions welcome
