tweedledee Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Guys I'm after a new coat at not crazy money...anyone any thoughts on Verney carron or a laksen grizzly?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennett Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I have a Laksen, but not the grizzly. It is my wet weather coat, so been well tested and had never let me down, another gun has the same one but a few years older and he is more than happy with it. It does come up quite big though, so maybe worth checking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wymberley Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Would a Glenmore by Hoggs fit the bill? As you'd expect it's well made and looks good. Sadly, having not been too clever coming up to a year ago and ever since I've not been able to put it fully to the test but so far all is well.

Scully Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 Laksen don’t make ‘poor’ anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfieri Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 My Laksen lightweight is now 13 seasons old and other than stitching on one of the cartridge pockets coming undone it’s never let me down and still very dry in all weather.

Dougy Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 11 hours ago, Scully said: Laksen don’t make ‘poor’ anything. +1 Me and the Mrs popped into Brocklehurst in Bakewell the other week. I came out wuth a Lasken windproof jumper. £189. At least we got free parking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTaylor91 Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 I have the Verney carron ibex trousers and they are spot on. They have been drenched and never soaked through. Good quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenBhoy Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 Following this as I'm after new jacket for the coming season. What do people think of ridgeline? This seems a decent price https://www.ardmoor.co.uk/ridgeline-torrent-iii-jacket-ridrlcwjt3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
