Men’s Spring & Summer Collection from Craghoppers

October 1, 2018 by DaveLeave a Comment

With a trip to Thailand planned to celebrate Songkran (the Thai New Year's festival, which thankfully involves lots of water fights during the warmest time of the year in Thailand), I grabbed a couple of lightweight clothes to wear in Thailand's notorious intense and oppressive tropical heat and humidity. One day I spotted the heat index at 115F equivalent to 46C. First up was the Craghoppers Bermera travel shirt - created with InsectShield … [Read more...]

February 17, 2013 by Dave2 Comments

Pants, Bluff Works (Reviewed February 2013) Recently we were approached by an independent clothing company, Bluff Works, which boasted versatile pants that look good in an office yet hold up to the rigors of outdoor activities. These pants were the brainchild of founder Stefan Loble who wanted a solution to the constant ironing and washing of his work clothes.

Vizini

July 1, 2010 by DaveLeave a Comment

Vizini (Reviewed: Jul 2010) - Where better to test out a product meant to be worn in the sun then the sunny state of Hawaii.
