Gap stuff is good quality and doesn't fall apart or look old after a few months, not the cheapest but you get what you pay for. Anything by an outdoor brand that was designed to be used outdoors rather than by dog walkers will be good but you'll probably have to put up with being a walking advertisement. Anything that's got a brand name will probably fall apart pretty quickly.Comment

I dont know where my stuff comes from, the missus goes out with some of money, then comes back with some stuff. It works quite well
I do have one big massive regret though. We were up in the middle of Scotland about 6 or 7 years ago. There was snow on the ground and I needed some new kecks. So we went into an outdoor shop and I bought a pair of cheap lightweigt troosers.
They turned out to be windproof, water proof, easy to clean, and very very thin. elasticated at the ankles
they were made of teflon apparently.
I have never been able to find their like again. should have bought ten pairs. no... a hundred.

A T-shirt that cost £2 to make for £3, it's still crap but at least you don't feel ripped off.
It's the race to the bottom, they think we wont pay more so they reduce quality instead, this applies to everything in the modern world.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

I let you into a little secret - most of the chains use the same suppliers.
So you may as well buy it from Primark as M&S etc."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
