Scully Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I ordered a pair of their bib'n'brace thingies for lying prone shooting, beating etc at Lowther Show in August, which I still haven't received actually; (must give 'em a bell) so I can't tell you how good they are at the moment.

coatesy75 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Yes i have the Falkland Coat & Trousers i like . they are Good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudpatten Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) I tried some on at a recent game fair. It seems very well made and the sizing was extremely generous. I know two fowlers who have their jackets and give them a very high rating. Most of their top end stuff is desperately expensive. I`ve just had a look at their website which may be a bit dated. Their catalogue shows a much wider variety of camo schemes, most of which is miltary style patterns.

rimfire4969 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Their Falkland coat is right up with the Harklia Pro Hunter price, it will have to go some to match or better that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I have two of their Mammoth Jackets and they are wonderfully made, very warm and have lasted for years! http://www.countrycovers.co.uk/products/8/mammoth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Terrible company to deal with, I had to argue endlessly to get a refund on mis described and represented goods. Involved OFT in the end I ordered a pair of their bib'n'brace thingies for lying prone shooting, beating etc at Lowther Show in August, which I still haven't received actually; (must give 'em a bell) so I can't tell you how good they are at the moment. Start asking for your refund, I hope you paid by card (see my post). I don't tend to slate companies coz we all make mistakes but in their case I most certainly will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westley Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I am unable to comment on the Company, but I can comment on the clothing. Working outdoors, I was issued with a full suit of the original Arktis clothing (now known as Country Covers), consisting of coat, 2 liners, 1 x quilted and 1 x fleece, both liners can be used as individual jackets, 1 x hood and 1 x pair of overtrousers. They are now around 15 years old and apart from a small tear on the quilted liner, they are as good as new. They have all been machine washed countless times and are still 100 % waterproof. The overtrousers have a full length zip down each leg which enables them to be put on or taken off without the need to take them over your boots, there is then a full length velcro zip cover which stops water getting through the zip. The jacket has all the usual pockets for cartridges etc and handwarmers, also a drop down seat at the rear.The hood is excellent with a wired peak and front facial flap, which leaves just your eyes exposed. If I have any minor complaints, they are, when the liner is zipped into the jacket, you can not get to any inside pockets. The overtrousers could have done with a front fly and maybe belt loops, but I wear them with braces. All in all excellent gear and I would cetainly consider them again should the need arise.

Have all relevant paperwork, receipts etc, on which it states the waiting times for 'customised' items, which mine was, so they have a bit to go yet. May just call and enquire to let them know I haven't forgotten though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimLondon Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 I've got the shooting vest and the waterproof bomber I'm very happy with both. They have a stand at the international horse show at Olympia where I struck a deal and got some discount and of course got to try before I bought.

dodeer Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 The clothing is very good. It isn't cheap but quality costs. It'll last many years. Keep calling if you have prOblems as its a small company based on a farm. If your local go and try the stuff on and have a deal with the owner.
