In Manchester Loads of Cloudveil jackets 66 degrees softshells Point 6 merino socks Smartwool socks Trek Mates baselayers including a lot of merino cheapo Trek Mates pack covers

 In Maidstone the pickings have been slim indeed, recently. No Marmot, no Cloudveil, no Paramo, no Patagonia.. nothing good at all really, just loads and loads of "Trespass" and "Regatta" rubbish.. maybe they don't expect their customers to want to go outdoors, here in Kent? [post edited to remove some ruddy advert that the website put in]

Sounds exactly like the shop in Cork - just full of rubbish!

At least you get loads of Trespass and Regatta....I cant remember when I spotted any kind of gem in Southport!

Some Cloudveil stuff in the main Nottingham store mainly in size medium or extra large. Including Koven waterproof Jackets and various insulated and soft shell pieces. Also some Keela stuff including Pinnacle Waterproof Jacket in XL reduced to £40 (RRP £100).

 There were some Markill cookware / stoves / gas lanterns in Stevenage TKMaxx. Mostly entry level stuff but I picked up an Ardor Light 3 set of anodized aluminium pans for £12. They normally sell for about 45Euros / 40 GBP. John

Marmot W Motion windproof jkt rd XS £17 #1060
Marmot W PreCip jkt L £40
SW W Rime SS jkt 12 £50 Almost bought an XS (UK6/8) ACG W Paclite jacket that was re-labelled at £30, but made the mistake of putting it back on the rack whilst taking details of other items. A bloke picked it up and his size 12, 5'10" girlfriend squeezed herself into the tiny jacket, so it was skin tight, but must have bought it. I should have done my kitmonster advisor thing and persuaded her it was too small; it was, by a long way...

CP...would have thought you would have known by now.... Never tell a woman something is too small or too tight...never ever suggest her bum looks big...and never ever comment when said woman's boyfriend is close by!
|
|
> CP...would have thought you would have known by now.... Remember, I kept my thoughts to myself... It wasn't that she was big at all (size 12 at 5'10" is pretty slim, after all). But trying to fit into something size 6? Just silly.

Hatfield Galleria TK Maxx has lots of Cloudveil stuff including the Down Filled Koven Plus for (IIRC) £120 in Mens Large. Several Enclosure Hooded Jackets (Mens XL) in two-tone blue now marked down to £58 (200gsm Primaloft One !) and one Red one in L (still marked at £80). Lots of womens Cloudveil (fleece hoodies, softshell, hard shell, down parka etc.), Marmot Precip in various bright colours. A few interesting things from Keela at very low prices (£35) including a robust looking mountain hardshell. They also had plenty of Lowe Alpine mens Gore Tex Pro Shell jackets for £99. And I was surprised to see a Paramo Alta II mens XXL jacket for about £60 IIRC (didn't look for long as it was so huge!). Some fairly good looking smaller dry bags (three for £5.99) In other words, plenty out there for the bargain kit hunter.

Interesting that you've seen sizes other than M; all the items I've seen have been M samples. I shall keep looking; an Inertia Peak in my size (S) would be nice...
