Poster: A snowHead
|
Went shopping today and invested in the above two brands which I have no previous experience of.
TXMAXX finally came up trumps with a bright red Jeep Poivre Blanc jacket for my daughter - £38
I also picked up a slightly larger pale blue jacket (Annabel style) for when she outgrows the red one - Made by TOG 24 at the bargain clearance price of................wait for it....................£9!! I'm assuming this is a fair buy even if I put it away for a couple of years.
I got my son a pair of D2B mittens for £4.99 just so he didn't feel left out, but he had new gear last year.

Megamum, Well done. I've got a TOG24 jacket which I've had about 6 years now.

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

Megamum, there's a Tog24 outlet near us, and although I haven't bought any clothing, a rucksack I bought for hubby about 7 years ago is still going strong.

maggi, holidayloverxx, we went past a C&A on the train somewhere in Switzerland yesterday (think it was Spiez). Was dying to get off the train and see if they had any rompers for the EOSB Fartbag day

Yeah but ....
I was in TKMaxx in Belfast yesterday and saw a ski jacket for £320!... well it was one of THIS season's Phenix offerings and it was GORGEOUS
Mind you, a cheap flight and late accomodation deal and I could have 5 days skiing for that, so maybe won't be purchasing.
TK Maxx - always good discounts but not always cheap

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Megamum, My experience of Tog24 is that their stiuff is pretty good and hardwearing.
I have a jacket I bought from them (Their outlet shop in the Ebbw Vale outlet centre for £54) about 4 years ago that I have worn as my main winter coat every winter since, and it is still going strong.
That is actually designed to be a ski jacket, but for some reason, I have never actually used it for that

You know it makes sense.

The only C&A gear I wore was borrowed. IT was my first ski holiday. I was cold and wet.
