Salopette

We trialed the Olive Green Salopette some ten years ago upon the request of professional stalkers in the very central part  of the Central Highlands of Scotland, an area of dirt track roads, steep stark mountains and often inclement weather. A harsh environment at the best of times, but which, in the worst...takes no prisoners. Good news travels slow and is rarely heard, but  satisfied smiles and a twinkle in the eye say it all! So do repeat orders. Just like trousers lasting 12 years and more, so have these shown a longevity and degree of dependability enabling us to introduce these in both Olive Green and in the Tweed pattern just in time and ahead of winter. Both are ideal when worn  on the hill in winter stalking, also on quad bikes throughout the year.

Many Keepers have asked us for a bib-and-brace like garments with longer back and protection for use when on a quad bike. So also have a number of winter High Seat experts in this country after woodland Roe, Fallow and Muntjac; and a number of clients in Europe in their usually colder conditions after Deer and especially Wild Boar. Recently inland Wildfowler's have added their desire too.
