Hi Everyone,

I am in need of a new jacket and bib & brace
And I have been looking at the wychwood rogue suit, Have any of you chaps got one or know if they are any good. Thanks for any help.

Had a gander in the local shop. Look's good but sorry can't advise. But I do have the two piece Prologic Wilderness jacket and bib & brace. Very warm and into my second season and no faults.

The Rogue outfit is excellent value for money, but the Extremis is even better. You should find it on sale for under ?100. I bought a set last winter and it kept me warm on one of the rare freezing days we had in February.

I haven't needed to wear it with the fleece so far this winter!

I've got an Extremis as well and I can't fault it. It isn't the warmest of suits, as it only has a microfleece lining, but you can wear an extra layer underneath in cold weather. The Rogue has thicker padding and a different outer fabric. I tried them both and preferred the Extremis which cost me about ?80.

This is the best offer ive seen so far, you get the jacket, the bib and brace and the fleece, all other places replace the fleece with a hoody.

I have to say the fleece is one of the nicest things ive worn, i have a buaghaus fleece and this beats it hands down. The jacket is lovely, keeps you very warm, so warm i havnt had to use both togethor.

I havnt tried the bib and brace yet, but the rogue ones were very nice and the extermis are alot thiner but with more insulation as far as i can see, and they can be converted to trousers

Use a Sundridge bracken myself with a sundridge sleepskin fleece underneath. Very light, warm, quiet when you move and totally waterproof.
