Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

It's a fleece hat, a neck and chest warmer at the NEC ski show.

Hi Snowheads,

I was at the ski show at the NEC on Friday and saw a stall that sold fleece neck warmers that turn into a hat with a built in chest keepy warmer. Would anybody by chance happen to know the name of the company or website address please?

Thanks very much
Andy

Wow, what a quick response - thanks Tatty.

Yep, Buffwear is what I was looking for though I can't see on their website the one that has the chest warmer. It was like a piece of rectangular fleece sewn onto the neck warmer that came down to the stomach area. Maybe it's a new line that hasn't appeared on the website yet.

Thanks again
Andy

Bored At Work, I made my own version of the very same thing - but if you find the site I would be interested as there is not much fabric fleece choice available and I'd like something a little different this year. I made all our family one each about 7yrs ago, and they still wear them now - I wouldn't ski without mine. They are not new, I saw them at the ski show years ago and bought 2 for £20 (I think) I then modelled mine on the ones I bought - Good luck !

Two Christmases ago we got as far as Plagne centre decided it was too cold windy and snowy so we went home, put another log on the fire and stayed indoors and watched the skiers and the snowfall through the nice thickly double glazed lounge windows, it's quiet a decadent feeling Very Happy

Thanks for all your replies. I've just checked the exhibitor list at the show and it would appear that Buffwear were the ones, but then the Polo Pancho from Whotzhot does look to have the chest warmer built in... hmmm??!!??

Thanks again

Bored At Work, 'fraid not. Though the one I have is a kind of burnt orange, I believe.

However, you can get them here: http://www.kiwiinnovations.com/pancho/pancho.htm and here: http://www.whotzhot.info/Polo_Pancho.html What's the matter, do you not have Google where you live? Laughing

Thanks Lizzard, pink is the ONLY colour that will work at the moment. As for Google, I tried many searches terms but it always came back with the standard neck warmer (though i was a little lazy and never went past page 2) Embarassed .

Bored At Work, those two were the first sites which came up when I searched on 'polo pancho'. Randomly I also have one baby-pink ordinary neck warmer, likewise yours for a fiver. Though following Incogskisnow's blatant piece of stereotyping I think I might hang onto it and wear it all winter just to be obstreperous. NehNeh

well done I never spotted those other colours.

Bored At Work, I wonder if they will give you discount for buying 2 like they did at the ski show when we bought ours - might be worth ringing and asking?
