TK Maxx are really cheap and have some good past season jackets and sallopettes. Hope this helps!

I have managed to pick up a few bargains on ebay. There are people who are going skiing for the first time that buy all the gear and then don't want to go again. There are also people who change their ski outfits everytime they go. So you can often find stuff that has hardly been used.

Last week I picked up a pair of Degre 7 sallo's for £30 they are as good as new, in fact if they had a label on them I would think they were.

Snowboarding gear is baggier than skiing gear...That's all I know! lol

I tried on a pair of sallos last week, given that my current pair have 60 weeks experience. They have a distictive errm, gluwein, gulashsuppe, zipfer,rotwein hue. At £30, they were obviously class gear. That's my current ones. The ones I tried on were £250, and they were not as good as mine. I feel 80 weeksa coming on......

My ski jacket is White Rock and is still as new after about 12 trips/washes/Nikwaxes. I ski but really feel comfortable in boarder pants. Used to wear my son's cast offs but now buy proper ladies boarder pants. Have just replaced my old ones (Tog 24) with No Fear ones from Sports Direct - reduced from £99.99 to £29.99. Tried TKMaxx but nothing I felt comfortable in.

My ski jackets last for years the reason ....... I wear them for skiing not for Apres ski or wearing through our winter. 8)

My next point is I brought some cheap sallo's last year "Dare2be" don't bother they are rubbish, only wore them for three days and a small hole developed at the bottom of one leg.
I tend to buy the cheaper sallo's as I tend to get too hot in the more expensive ones, but on this occasion I brought too cheap.

I normally buy all my gear online including Jackets, Amazon for my last jacket at £80 and about £35 for Sallos, I normally buy the Sallos from skiwear4less have always got a good service from both parties.

Ian, isn't there supposed to be a hole at the bottom of each leg? )
