shaun67 Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Hi all, Looking for a decent pair of leggings/treggings to replace my old Bob Parrat ones. Mainly used for beating and rough shooting. Any advice greatly appreciated. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washerboy Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Waxed cotton from ebay I've snagged expensive over trousers and destroyed them, so I just buy a cheap barbour copy and had a pair maybe 15 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep me also. Stud on leggings which I only put on when faced with really wet conditions or a field of sprouts or kale. Blackpowder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not been impressed with my purchases from seeland either bought the full kraft force trousers and jacket last season had nothing but hassle with the trousers. Came apart at the stitching around the crouch area sent back to seeland new pair arrived two weeks later same thing happened again in the same area. Just had them re stitched & re inforced at a local alternation shop hopefully they might last longer then a few Saturdays this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adzyvilla Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 I got some army surplus bib and brace over trousers from a stall in the market. I think they are goretex ones and they take a battering during the season. Not let me down yet and still holding together wear wise. Hopefully a place near you that sells similar.

Fishing Richie Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Bought a pair of these from the Game Fair last summer. https://www.fortisclothing.co.uk/shop/padded-waterproof-falkland-trousers/ They were made to measure and seem very durable. Cost me £150. I have not had these long enough so far to pass judgement but I do have one of the same companies vests which is 8yrs old and is still like new after lots of use.

I have the German Army Olive Green version, very good, only seen one other person wearing them when shooting and she was ex service too!
