Pretty sure the purple and green version is the one Graham Bell was wearing on the last Ski Sunday.
I know cos commented to my missus on the appalling 80's Nevica look... 😀
Ta. That's the one Graham Bell was wearing in this week's Ski Sunday - he's "brand development director" or somesuch for Nevica, so sports quite a bit of their gear on screen...
Further PSA - lots of Haglofs stuff at 50% off on cotswoldsoutdoor today.
I resisted, just.
Jaysus, that's cheap!!!
Same offer in Field and Trek. Off to the local sportsDirect at lunch to see if they have one I can actually look at
My local SportsDirect has been demolished, so I've ordered one. Ebay for £50 if it's crap 😉
What colour'd ya go for DezzieBee?
EDIT:
Removable Snow [i][b]Baiter[/b][/i]
😆
Black. The others are a bit nasty. The [b]B[/b]aiter was what sold it for me, I can just leave it at work as a spare coat 🙂
[edit]the coat, not the Baiter!
Further PSA - lots of Haglofs stuff at 50% off on cotswoldsoutdoor today.
Some good prices on Rab stuff on there too.
I am also resisting, despite my Gore Tex jacket being 20 years old.
Black in size shortarse all gone. 🙁
Black in size shortarse all gone.
One sitting in my basket at the moment 🙂
Hope I can get back before the basket times out to push the order through if there's no stock in store...
You're more a medium surely nbt?
'tis a medium, aye.
Trying to resist here.
Not even going skiing this year but want it!
Cheers for the PSA, old school here we come!
Nevica ain't what it used to be quality wise (doubting the value at £160 RRP) but at worst it'll be nice for washing the bike!
Some sizes were gone but now showing again - so either they are updating, restocking, or the site allocated stock to a basket session then times out and releases it again.
What is the sizing like on them?
I am a medium North Face but don't want it to be too tight for the slopes.
(My wife said just get it as we are planning on going away next year anyway)
Anyone want to buy me a black in small? Struggling to do it phone with crap signal. 😐
I will text card details and stuffs if someone would do it. Not expecting anyone to buy it from their own spondulics.
i'll help darcy 🙂
i've got a small black and yellow in my basket ready to go for you
Got it.
Oops.
So much for a tight rein on spending this month. 🙁
mf - buy M & L - ebay one in a fortnight for £40, get the other free?
Philly, I'll inbox you on FB. Cheers. I phillythanker.
Change of mind Philly. As you were. 🙂
DD, you'll need a medium I think, just been to try some on and a medium fit me perfectly. Looks ok, nice touches in terms of fleecy liners for pockets and so on, but the material looks quite thin and the shoulder don't seem to have any reinforcements. Wouldn't bet on it lasting more than a few days if used for proper skiing, but if you just want it for knocking around it's not bad at all
Anyone know what Haglofs sizing is like?
Is the XXL really like XXL or more similar to XXL Italian cycing jerseys?

Sounds like it involves bouncing off rocks!
Sounds like it involves bouncing off rocks!
Well it involves carrying skis over your shoulder, and may involve falling over at times 😉
forgot to mention that the "pit zips" are not actually pit zips, they;re more or less where your rucksack straps will go...
These are better:

Yay! Mine has just turned up - gotta say I am happy with that - it seems a pretty well featured jacket and fits nicely.
And I got a free Sports Direct mug too - it looks like it will take about a pint of coffee at a go 🙂
those sports dierct mugs are impressive
i love mine!
Got one with the last sports direct PSA. Awesome coffee mug in the morning. Happy with the jackets then girls?
It has a barmy handle - a gorilla could sip his Darjeeling out of one of those no problem.
Anyone seen today's offer - jackets with headphones/speakers built into the hood for £6!
I've already got a massive mug, and 4 catalogues! Hope they don't send anymore!
(Those Kangols have gone already)
Got a link MF?
I think they must have sold out but here is the link that the email they sent me went to...
EDIT:

(Then clink on the Thursday deal).
I might go back tomorrow!
I got a great mug and a free jacket. Chuffed.
Thanks MS order seemed to go through ok.
They must have restocked. A bargain but I can't really buy two jackets in two days - even if I get another mug!
got mine. Its a proper ski jacket isn't it? I expected something cheap and nasty!
Smells weird though...
My Donnay trainers, tracky b's, cap and England top all arrived too. Properly buzzin!
I ordered on this avo, and just got an amil saying they've sent my order - but not the jacket 🙁 Anyone got a spare in Size L they don't want?
Yeah mine smells too - just leaving it out to air it. Otherwise it's getting bunged in the wash. I guess it is some fabric preservative or something?
Just been out in mine - nice and warm and kept me dry in a rain storm.
Then I put my hands in the pockets and mmmm, fluffy - lovely snug and fluffy pocket inners.
Very impressed for £20.
Even has a clip for headphones too.
Hood a tad on the short side though.
primark ski/ board jackets are pretty good too. Oxford Street has plain ( blue i think) Ski / Boarding jackets for £20 reduced from 40 i think Loads yesterday. They have matching pants too. I got a board jacket last year reduced and have riden it on dryslopes and it's brilliant. Feels a bit cheap and i was concerned it would be too hot. loads of pockets and really breathable. Mine even has a soft google pocket inside and MP3 holder an hole. Looks great too. When i've used it on the dryslope I forgot i had it on, and although cold the weather wasn't freezing. Salo has a removable hood and stash pockets near the wrists. Also it has proven to be tough. I Had a few dryslope falls and no problems there. Mines a lovely oversized cut too although i got the size larger really)
Although the no fear jackets look great (no experience though0 bear in mind they are not actually £150 jackets reduced to £40. they are basic jackets similar to the primark ones. slthough probably still a good buy. I've had other no fear stuff and i would say it's all been really good.
I tried some cheap board pants on in Sports direct (not sure of brand but not np fear) and tbh they felt like wearing multiple layers of stiff bin bags.
TBH for £50 say, best bet is TKMaxx.. or maybe the others mentioned above second
for £20 bargain!!
