Hello, Can anyone shed any light on current status of Extreme Clothing and the made to measure service Keith use to offer for 'ultrafleece' style clothing. I have an old catalogue and went to get updated prices and the website seems to have disappeared. He used to get a mention here occasionally so if anyone has any up to date info (or contact details?) that would be appreciated.

Oh, I see. And not a mention of fleece anywhere! I shall drop him a line and try to find out what the score is at present. A good film as I recall - who knew that the jackets were so special.

Did you ever get any response? I have a very faithful old Field Smock from Extreme but the zips are beginning to give out and I want a new one. Nobody ever seems to answer my emails and I'm beginning to suspect that Extreme is no more...

I managed to get hold of Keith earlier in the year.Advised me that he was now only operating the business on a part time basis but he was still getting some good business in such as  supplying  Keswick   Mountain  Rescue Team with Fleeces.He promised to send me a brochure but I never heard anymore from him.Got a couple of Ultrafleece garments from Hilltrek in Scotland in the end.

I never had anything back from emails and gave up. Like Trentham I found other places still have a bit of ultrafleece in and were not so difficult in giving money to!

I was speaking to Kieth (by email) earlier in the year - and it was clear that Extreme is now very much part-time and (I think) he was about to depart on some weeks or months travelling away. Cant be of anymore help though - as just after that saw just what I wanted on ebay...and got it for £5!

The website is still running...but very out of date (have a look at the specials page...it dates from 2002)

Mardale still make a range of Karisma/Ultrafleece stuff: http://www.mardale.com/sierra.html

I have a few odds and sods of theirs and it's okat stuff backed up with good customer service, especially if you want something non-standard.

Pete.
