Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi folks,
any suggestions for Goretex softshell jackets? Looking for one for a trip, ideally with Recco as my travel insurance will give me a discount if I have that along with my
pieps!
I was on the lookout for a Haglofs Couloir jacket as it seems to fit the bill although it is a discontinued item apparently? I need one with a helmet compatible hood, pit zips, not fussed it it has a snow skirt or not, as above, RECCO fitted and not massively expensive.
Failing the Couloir, any ideas?
Thanks, Den

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

the Pieps I can understand, but I thought Recco was just about recovering bodies. Which travel insurance - I'm intrigued?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Denni, If all else fails just cannibalise an old jacket/pants/boots and stick the recco reflector into your pocket, its a passive device so you won't do it any harm. Not that it will do much beyond making your body easier to find as Megamum says!

For insurance companies point of view a quick body recovery may keep costs down. Relatives stuck out tbere waiting for news, search claims etc.

Ironically - I'm just about to send back a couple of Couloir Pro jackets (the 2014 version) to SportPursuit which I managed to pick up at around £250 a piece (a large and a medium). I'd bought both sizes intending to send the one that didn't fit back - but as it happens I hadn't realised quite how green they would be in the flesh !
I think I have 14-days to get them back for a refund - but if anyone wants to take them off my hands happy to let them go to a good home instead.
