At the quality and price it don't stay on the shelf for to long. As mentioned I use one of the Crane small cool bag as a brew bag. And in the summer it's just the right size to take 8 tins of beer and a couple of ice packs. Wish I'd bought a few more.

If you can't make the store. There's always the online option.

The "cargo trousers" where in store yesterday so I bought a couple of pairs of them

Doubt I would wear them fishing though, they seem a bit thin and doubt they would last long if you go creeping about amongst bushes and briars. They are that thin, they have no warmth to them so probably useless for a cold Spring and a cold Autumn etc and definitely out for Winter use. But, maybe ideal for just sitting around in on a hot Summers day on the bank and they probably dry very fast too if you fall in or wade out to net a fish or even spill your beer over them.

Because they are only "Light" they fold up very small so maybe ideal to use as spare clothing in your bag or for sleeping in on a Summer night with just a blanket.

But, I bought them mainly for day to day wearing at home and they are very comfortable and that light, you don't notice your wearing them.

In fact, regarding drying time, just rememberd that I washed a pair to get the creases out, hung them outside just over half an hour ago, just checked them and they are bone dry, everything else is still wet including my jeans etc and its cold, no sun and a light breeze. But, they had been spun, so if you fall in, they would be a bit wetter and take a bit longer to dry.

Sorry for bumping an old thread. But for those that like a bargain with quality products
Aldi from this Sunday gone have a few fishing bits in the middle isle. It's not showing a lot online. But there does tend to be a bit more in store.

Soft Shell jackets are on sale, I bought 2 last year, I was that impressed with them I wore them right through Winter for just day to day use clothing at home and going down town shopping etc

Got some salopettes years ago from Aldi, still going strong, albeit the elastic shoulder straps are a bit knackered and it's a bit tight nowadays. May have to pickup a larger pair if available

I did not see any salopettes in store or even online. In fact, they do not have that much

Slough Aldi had a bunch of bits in this weekend. Soft shell jackets, joggers, neoprene wellies which I've had before and were great. Also really nice looking small rucksacks, looked very well made and only £15. Regret not buying one as I typed that!

Those wellies are great for the money, I'm on my second pair, first pair lasted a couple of seasons and there still fine.Only about 25 quid.
