£70 for a fleece seems reasonable to me never mind outrageous :lol:

Pablo,
It's okay for you millionaire students :wink:

But for me £70 is 10 hours cleaning wages (that I have to pay other people) or one acre's rent for a year.

But my new fleece is really lovely :D

My HH jacket cost £80 its warm, breathable and waterproof....... I have been looking at the Surfanic website they have some great end of season deals



Maybe im weird, i dunno, but i try not to look at price. I look at something and if i like it i will have it regardless of cost, brand or anything else.

I loved that jacket, i wanted it i bought it. I will wear it with my £3 tesco jeans sometime.....thats the way i am.

£70 for a decent fleece is certainly not outrageous. You can pay over £200 for a fleece if you really want, although personally I wouldnt and dont really see the point.
Millionaire students? :shock:

Snapzzz,
As long as you are pleased with it, that's all that matters. Sorry, I wasn't trying to have a go at you for spending that much on a jacket. I have spend masses of money on things that are important to me - like my teeth :lol:

I'm still above the snowline (just) :P :D

Bloody lifts are shut here tho, and too busy to take a day on skins!

My bargain of the winter was a Mountain Hardwear Monkey Woman Fleece Jkt for £39 instead of £100. Just what I wanted :D
