Seeing as the last thread was so successful
Looking for a wool shirt jacket for Spring/Fall weather. Something like this but it was just a Google image and can't find the brand. Where should I look?
holy shit, OP from the last thread here, thought the last one was mostly hated despite the quantity of replies. noice.
>>724952
know what that jacket is? And can anyone recommend a base layer with the thumb holes/cuffs like this?
>>724960
I bought a couple of 'wool mix' shirts off asos. the fabric was super rough and prickly when i bought them but has softened up nicely. Totally fine over a baselayer, cheap and really warm.
Also my missus just bought a wool cape for £4 from a charity shop. It looks fucking amazing, 100% wool, super soft and thick. Jelly af.
>>724960
reverse image search tells me these are pendleton. Which means great quality, but pricey. I want some of these too.
So im a total nub when it comes to outdoor fashion. Kinda hiking in general, but thats besides the point. I need examples of layers and temp ranges, anyone want to be awesome? Obviously its subjective to each person, but amuse me.
>>725209
Just avoid cotton, and dress for what you expect the weather to be like at night when temperature is at it's coldest. You can always remove layers during the day.
Underwear should be wool. Synthetics like nylon or poly are nice but I always get swamp nuts wearing them cause they don't breathe as good. If it's cold weather, I will also wear wool long johns.
I wear a wool long sleeve shirt in colder weather and a nylon short sleeve shirt in warmer weather. In warm/mild weather I wear a wool jacket like >>724960 or a soft shell jacket if I'm expecting rain. in colder weather I will wear a thicker down jacket. Pants are always the same year round.
I personally love wool. My body doesn't breathe very well in synthetics.
>>725231
Recs for non cotton pants?
I really like MASSIF stuff, its mainly military contract stuff but you can buy anything from their cite.
Form fitted, insanely soft, HEEUUG pockets and ton of them (2 on each arm as well) and even fire proof for when SHTF
I was thankfully issued a ton of this stuff and I can totally vouch for the brand.
Its expensive since it has fire retardant and crazy softness but if you want to look good, operator and be warm off your ass I high reccommend you check out their gear.
I wear this jacket and its mega comfortable inna. Its very expensive so I understand no one buying it. Their undergarments are reasonably affordable and they are also hypersoft and effective. I wore this shit for months on deployment and always felt blissfully comfy in it.
>>725327
Nylon is nice.
>>725096
>what that jacket is?
Jacket is the coldsmoke anchorage m65. Pic related.
Basically a throwback to the original m65 field with eVent wp/b membrane
>base layer with the thumb holes/cuffs like this?
Icebreaker merino do some hoodies with thumb holes, but looks too "technical" for me
>>725327
Prana Brion pants are the most normal and affordable pants I've found. Have tried on the zion (same thing but cargo) and they're very nice. DWR softshell but thin enough to wear in summer

Newfriend here looking for some affordable wool baselayers. Anyone got any reccomendations?
>>727292
enjoy your ticks and skin cancer
>>727299
The minus 33 merino wool bottoms are the comfiest i've ever had. They aren't cheap($50-60) but ive found that cheaper wool bottoms are scratchy and not as warm. Dont skimp, you will be glad you got these.
Dont bother with their top though, the neckline is super uncomfortable to me.
>>725096
>Also my missus just bought a wool cape for £4 from a charity shop. It looks fucking amazing
i ain't tryin to creep on your missus but i'd appreciate a pic of the cape, sounds fly
You are all walking memes.
Am I ef ayy?
>>727561
The jacket is for sure - what is it?
>>727587
Fjällräven Keb
>>725355
looks like pyjamas
>>727426
pic related. it's brand new so i just asked her to send one. sorry it's a bit shitty, i'll take better ones when i get a chance
>>727607
oh nice - i've looked at the keb ecoshell but went for gore tex instead. is yours waterproof?
>>727654
All of the G1000 stuff has a coating of G1000 wax, which is a heat setting wax that essentially melts into the fabric.
Works pretty well in repelling water and looks pretty good doing it, you can add more coats to different parts of the jacket and make it more waterproof, or more breathable. I have a special edition Greenland jacket, very nice.
Am I /out/ approved btw?
Carhartt WIP is literally GOAT
>>727688
>>727688
yee i have a few pairs of the trousers. I like in the UK so waterproof and breathable rather than resistant is a big bonus. i guess paramo would be good
>>727654
that is not a cape
capes don't have sleeves anon
>>727654
Honestly, I wouldn't substitute a hardshell for it. Those lighter coloured areas on the torso are just some stretch fabric. Great for breathability with a backpack on but not so good at repelling water. Ultra comfy/cosy when combined with the Keb fleece though.
I'don't be interested to get my hands on one of the economy shells they're producing now. Can't see it trumping my dead bird swag for practicality but I bet it'll look awesome.
>>727654
lol it's a bathrobe?
>>727692
what backpack is this?
>>727737
What kind of trousers are they mate? Sound useful
>>728116
The Fjallraven trousers I have are Barents, Nils and Karl Hydratic. One pair of each. I'm 6'8" so their 'raw length' is great for me.
the Hydratic is waterproof and breathable, but when I mentioned that in my previous post I was talking about my Gore Tex jacket. It's GoreTex Pro which is amazing.
>>727688

>>725209
Anything but cotton really silk, wool, and synthetics are a good bet. In my opinion I really love merino wool and think its the best material for /out/ clothing.
>>724952
Would this jacket actually keep you that warm? I thought dead air space was still a thing?
>>725096
I have this. I ordered this for a base layer and it's kinda tight so maybe order one size up. But I like it none the less. The inside has a weird material. It's kind of like when you run your hand across the roof liner in a car. It kind of sticks to any loose skin on your hands. But you can't feel it when it's on.

>not wearing your superior Burden Karst
>>725369
Those look awesome and insanely comfortable.
Fit as expected? I need to know how they do because I'm saving up for these right now. I have a really nice pair of bjornklader pants for work and I need something for hiking. Should I have a layer underneath? How are they when they get wet?
I've been slowly moving my wardrobe away from a seperate /out/ and /city/ wear and towards clothes that fit both criteria. Seems like it would be better to have more a more simple, practical wardrobe.
At the moment I'm looking at getting a good fleece that can satisfy both - something practical and light for hiking trips but also something that I can wear around without looking like a middle age dad. Anybody have any suggestions? Not looking to break the bank too, considering its just a fucking fleece. I was thinking the Patagonia Snap T looks comfy af. But in Aus its hard to get non tacky colours and also no hand pockets is a draw back
>>728162
tbqh I hike in new balance 574s that I picked up for AUD50 on sale. cheap, light, sturdy, and comfortable. they've been great for spring through autumn hiking - i honestly wouldnt ever bother with hiking boots again I think. Maybe for winter hiking I guess.
>>727692
Would you please tell me what is happening in the window reflection to your right?
>>728542
Looks like a mashup of Minecraft and the London Olympics logo.
>>728584
This reminds of that thread from last year where the guy wanted something to last while /out/ but be fashionable as he gave off a mysterious vibe walking through towns in all black not talking to anyone. Did he do it? I never saw anything after that.
>>728816
Hah I remember that thread. I remember thinking he was a massive faggot for wanting to look a certain way with no regard to functionality
>I don't actually go outside, I just look like I do
>>724960
Filson, Woolrich, Pendelton, LL Bean maybe?
Does a sexier jacket even exist?
>>728741
It's a poster
>>725355
can confirm I have a nomex Massif jacket and it's fucking great
Icebreaker stuff is amazing, but the Realfleece line is a must have IMO

>>729389
wouldn't waxing make it a bit waterproof?
But what do i know.. i wear a jacket like this one, a Conquista Chamonix (something like pic related) and already feel good with myself.. maybe because i live in souther Brazil and our winters won't go below 3ºC in most of our cities so there's not much reason to have something beyonde that, maybe something more "social"..
Also: Seriously, these ones looks quite nice:

I gotta give the man credit for his enthusiasm. He wasn't taking "no" or "but you'll die" or even "it's a really stupid idea, stop" for an answer. He didn't go viral in the northeast and I have friends up that way so I guess he called it off... pity.
Post some dope button up non cotton shirts for hiking.

>>731442
this one seems cheap enough to e able to be destroyed. (and to put wax on it to make it more water repelent)
Can't go wrong with Triple Aught Design. Ultra high quality and fairly /fa/. I get compliments on my brown Shag Master all the time.

It's only going to cause trouble
>>731652
I've got a Gorka set that I wear out hiking etc, never had any problems whatsoever. Even had people ask about it and be surprised that its military gear.
There's literally nothing militaristic about it at all.

That Haglofs tho
Where is this?
>>731657
if you dont mind my asking, how well does it breathe, how water resistant is it, and how well can you layer under it?
>>731693
Lemmenjoki park, northern Finland.
>>731652
yep, just use hiking boots, bright colous backpacks, i honestly don't see the problem.
>>731720
iy's quite wide inside, you can lyer a lot underneath it, it's made with a material similar to canvas and so more reinforced areas, i think if you could wax some areas it would be quite water resistant.
>>731720

they look quite good with normal hiking boots as well
>>731720
also, it's quite good all in one set piece of clothing
>>731720
As other anon said its a fairly loose fit which makes it quite nice circulation wise.
As it comes it's not super waterproof. What i've done is use some Nikwax wash in waterproofer which has helped quite a lot, it's still not completely waterproof, but it was never really meant to be. Its a good tough outer garment that stands up well to being roughed up over rocks and through nasty undergrowth. I've used it while scrambling, in the snow, in forests etc and I'm extremely happy for something that cost £40. Get a set and mess around with it!
>>731402
Is that backpack Patagonia?
>>731390
But it works so fucking well
I have a Gorkas too, and the BARS 3 is my all time favorite garment.
>>731868
My all time favorite /out/ clothes
Are cowboy boots /effay/out/? I'm seriously tempted to get a pair.
>>731877
It depends on what you are doing /out/side. If you are just walking around the farm, riding horses and getting aound they are okay but most arent waterproof. Day to day if you get a good pair they are comfy but forget hiking in them. Make sure you get some outdoors ones and not fashion ones. They also rake a while to break in usually and its worth spending the time making sure you get the perfect fit. Nothing worse than ill fitting western boots.
>>731882
Thank man. Me and a mate are going on a month long roadtrip delivering shit across the country. I'm looking for a pair that I could just put on and forget about for the day whilst looking like I know what I'm doing. Finding squared toed boots for under $200 is a nightmare
>>729315
Sami would get offended if you wore that in their presence.
Never wear native looking shit. It's offensive, it's like you're mocking them.

>>731877
If only i lived in the US..
>>731888
Prices here in Australia can be a bit steep bit over there you should be able to get a decent pair of ropers for that. Ropers are a bit shorter than a standard length and normally a square or snipped toe. Check ariat and justin boots. Plenty of options.
>>727688

Not to whom you're replying but I personally kinda like scratchy wool.
Although I'd imagine, after some /out/, my nipples sure as fuck would not.

Everyone that wears shoes has deformed feet.
>>733936
there are constantly festivals where people sell good stuff or go to a garage sale or flea market and with a little luck you'll find good stuff, for cheap.
>>734511
NO, just NO, those shoes were tight as fuck, nowadays footwear (the intelligent ones at least) not only is quite more comfortable and wide, the materials that made modern footwear are more comfortable..
if you want to go barefoot everywhere, or even with some kind of DIY flip flops, be my guest, but i'd rather have my comfortable hiking boots and walking shoes.
(all in all, most "social" shoes are uncomfortable anyway)
>>734656
>NO, just NO
>proceeds to detail advanced footwear of today that a minority of people wear for a minority of their time
Not much of a point, m8. What I am asserting is that none of us have the feet that nature intended us to have because we all grow up wearing shoes.
>>734702
nah bro you're just nitpicking pics of people who wore shoes that were too small
>>734719
Maybe you misunderstand. I'm not saying everyone has really fucked up feet like that first picture, right?
I am asserting that no one who wears shoes as they grow has feet that develop naturally. Even people that wore properly sized shoes at all times.
Look at the second picture I posted. Does everyone have feet like that?
I would suggest that the "normal" foot is like the one on the right in this picture.
That foot is deformed. It's just not as bad as the pair in the first pic.
>>734737
that's true but it doesn't make much of a difference other than some minor things like Cody Lundin always pointed out.

If you guys dont own one of these Bundeswehr parka liners already,I highly suggest getting one.
There super warm and super cheap and have worn my one out hunting a number of times.
It can get quite cold out here in Irish boglands when your hunting sika so this is perfect for me.
I dont think the /k/ store sell them anymore but here's a link to the site I bought it from.
http://www.asmc.com/Clothing/Men/2-Line-clothing/Jackets/German-Army-Parka-Liner-Used-p.html
>>727692
Really digging everything you got there, especially the patches. I was going to get that pack but I ended up getting a FAST Pack Litespeed.
>>728102
Tactical Tailor Urban Operator pack.
>>735649
this guy knows whats up. cotton flecktarn parka all day,that liner is so godtier,
bought a another German parka, a little more obscure i think this time, as far as i know its from like 1982, detachable presumably synthetic fur liner
>>727692
I'll be honest, there's a lot of cringe going on here..
>>736295
How do you like the Litespeed? I've been teetering on getting one for over a year but I just don't know if I could justify it. I don't know if it would offer much more functionality than my GR0. Or maybe I'm scared it will offer too much functionality over my GR0 and my GR0 will end up collecting dust. Which would make me sad because my GR0 has gone with me everywhere and I'm sentimental about it.
>>736318
Honestly I really wanted a Goruck but I got the litespeed for $195 which is $100 less than a GR1 so I'm happy. It's a great pack, the back padding fits me perfectly though the contours of the straps don't really fit me (I have the old model, the new one has narrower, thicker straight straps). It has a TON of webbing on the outside and I don't really know what to do with it besides attaching an admin pouch but I don't know which one to get yet. The pack's beavertail (I believe TAD calls it a "transporter tail") is really useful, I'm always using it to carry a couple of water bottles or my jacket if I get too hot. It has a pair of mesh pockets inside that are a bit smaller than the GR0's but they're great for holding things like a scarf, gloves, a flashlight, batteries, socks, underwear, or maybe a first aid kit. I can't really speak for it's waterproofness because I've only been out in light rain with it.
Really if you love your GR0 then I I think you should stick with it, all the litespeed really has over it is the mesh back padding and the transporter tail.
>>724952
Just bought this jacket, /out/. How'd I do?
>>736314
Same guy again.
There kind of like German copies of the Soviet Telogreika.
It's what kept the Ruskies warm in the Eastern Front.
You can still buy them inexpensively from Poland,as far as I know,they were used by the Polish up till the mid 70's.
>>731877
I've gone caving in them before. Worked pretty well.
I'm okay and actually like normal modern hiking boots, but i think there are those who wish there where some classic rugged old designes, but with modern features..
Is this Wolverine - Wilbur Waterproof Leather Boot /OUT/ worth? I know a friend who would love to have these instead of normal hiking boots. Though he would use mainly in urban/reain situations..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPJy-jzes58
Just bought a pair of Keb gaters. Am I /fa/ noaw?
>>736776
Danner boots are pretty much exactly what you're looking for.
beautiful classic design, world class quality, great ankle support etc, and modern tech like goretex membrane and vibram soles mean they're not just hipster bullshit, they're solid, decent boots.
only problem is the price, but i bought a pair a month or so ago and was worried i'd regret spending the cash (I don't have the money to make purchases like this flippantly). I do not regret it. so happy
>>736800
they are classic, but not the type my friend and I a re looking for unfortuantelly, though Danners seems to be quite a nice brand (The problem is that we live in Brazil, so every choise must be thought carefully, once the product is chosen, any friends that might travel to states will probably get the boot for us)
>>727561
White Mountaineering pants? They're really nice whatever they are. Definitely /fa/.
>>739043

Those look awesome. Are they good quality or just hipster fashion?
>>739043
The look like fjallraven vidda or barents pants.
Been looking at getting a pair but even if i can find them at a decent price, getting them sent to australia is a ball breaker.
>>739088
I have a hydratic shell jacket and a fleece jacket. Some of the best stuff I have. It is pricey stuff but I think its worth it.
>>739085
Are they long? I want to get myself some /out/ pants but im 6'5" and most /out/ pants dont have a waist/length measurement.
>>739090
Good on you mate. But i asked about the boots, not your jacket.
>>739092
they are. you're supposed to hem them yourself.

Ranger Shirt reporting
feelsgood
>>729405
I own the Skogsö as well and really like it. I did not buy it wanting it to be a completely waterproof jacket - I have a proshell for that. I found that whenever it was'nt raining I would much prefer not wearing gore-tex, but something like a woodsman-shirt instead. However with those I had to put on my gore-tex as soon as any rain was suspected.
To sum it up I have tried to bridge that gap. I love the comfort and breathability of the polycotton jacket, and still I dont have to bring out a rain jacket as soon as I feel a raindrop on my skin. I own Fjällräven pants as well and i'm slowly becoming quite good at aplying thier wax a way I like it. You can make the fabric pretty water resistant but never water proof. The way it is waxed right now, my jacket will keep light to medium rain out for about half an hour without it starting to soak through. But then again it dries pretty quick anyways. I also like playing around with where I apply the way, leaving some areas unwaxed for better breathability and other areas like shoulders heavily waxed.
>>739587
Does it feel pretty light to wear? Looking for a decent all round jacket as i have a shell or poncho for rain. How long does the waxing last for usually?
>>739092
they fit me perfectly and i'm 6'8"/203cm
>>739439
some are made in china, most are still US made. easily verified by checking their website u ignoramus
>>739570
what size did you get it in, mate?
From what i've heard and seen the bush shirt is more of an outer garment for cold weather and the ranger shirt is more of a spring/autumn and mid layer garment. how does it do in the rain?
>>739565
I've got one. Two things about 'em:
*I MIGHT have sized up if I could try them on. It's plenty big but the hood doesn't come over my big head as much as I'd like. Possibly this would be different with a larger size? Probably not.
*You'll be warm and maybe not notice it until you take it off but they trap sweat like crazy. Cotton would be a bad idea under this.
>>739664
Went with a Large. But then I was also able to get mine from a shop (Bushwear - Perth) so trying them on was an option. Did't try on the Bush Shirts or other stuff by them otherwise I'd have given you a rough idea of sizes and shit.
I'd probably agree with that, the Bush shirt does look quite smart if you wear it all tucked in like Uncle Ray does. I've been using it as an outer though. For work recently I normally have a merino base, a teeshirt and a heavy cotton work shirt so having it on loose on top of that instead of a fleece or something has been pretty effective. I often remove it and just wear it while we're sat around on breaks or sharpening saws and stuff.
For just a single layer of the material, in light rain/mist, it's kept me dry over the course of the working day. In actual downpours, as long as they go off again fairly quickly it's fine too. I've never gotten wet wearing mine.
You'll dig it, don't worry about the sizes too much.
>>739609
I have a size medium which weighs 610 grams. The cut feels much like any other good quality softshell. The fabric of course does'nt stretch, but I am not restricted in it at all.
I'm normal to slim built and my arms are quite long and the medium size is fine for me. (I'm 187cm and weigh 73kg's) If you're heavier you should go for a larger size as the jacket is slim around the body.
As for the wax. I was in Norway for about a week this winter using fjallraven pants. I was a lot on my knees is the snow and after comming home I did want to reapply some wax to the knees, ass and at the very bottom of the legs. Other than that I think it last a long time.
Unlike DWR treatments I dont have to wash it into the whole garment, so it only takes me a few minutes to add some extra to certain areas using a hairdryer.

hey its you that dick from fa

What's this called?
>>740146
A Gorka. Russian army cammies.
>>740117
Those things are shit in every way; they look awful, they feel awful, they are bulky, and they are not very warm. Biggest waste of $20 in my life.
>>740117
cant unsee this color combo as shaggy from scooby doo
>>724952
I'm amazed no one has posted the superior clashing bright colours style. The US seems so drab with its fashionable greens and greys.
It's top tier eff ayy no matter what you say. Also climbing hardware always adds to aesthetics.
>>740497
hmhmm filled me with doubts friendo- i like look unless it looks different irl; feel? like poorly cut or the material; bulky? like weight or under the arms or what and idm about warmth
>>725231
Any brand recommendation for wool boxer briefs? Preferably on the cheaper side but yeah, i already know
>wool
>cheap
Pick one
>>741206
You should be filled with doubts. As far as looks go even that picture somewhat shows that it's a dumb neckbeard-ey jacket that you WILL get weird looks for. The outer material feels like burlap, and the fur liner is the furthest thing from soft it could possibly be. The jacket is VERY thick but doesn't even provide as much warmth as a light fleece layered under a softshell.
It's probably the worst piece of surplus clothing I've ever owned and I used to collect surplus.
how many of you use gaiters?
(Found pic on the interwebz)
>>741638
i really don't know what they're for. i really don't see the need for them. they're primarily to keep your legs/feet dry?
>>741638
Don't leave home without em in the winter if there's snow on the ground. Also must have for anything alpine with ice. I'll wear them for trail work if its raining or hellaciously muddy
>>741640
>>741644
and also some gaiters are intended to use as protection from snakes
>>739439
that actually isn't true, they are still made in the us
I sell boots/shoes/hikers
>>729371
Whats the Skogso like? Good to buy?

i got a pretty effay fit i use as my everyday inna woods attire. ill post it tommorow morning.
>>742391
I sell them everyday
look at every danner, every box, they all state "made in the USA"
they also have don the made in portland oregon seal.

Jesus Christ.. the deathcoat, ik the liner is removable but is the fur collar that i now see as an extended neckbeard ty ?
>>731868
>But it works so fucking well
Fucking indeed
>>743285
Really what I feel makes it look neckbeardy is that it just fits wierd. If it fit humans well then good but I still don't like the feel of the fake fur at all.
>>742384
As a German, I do find people's doomsday preparations in the US slightly odd. Why is everyone convinced the end is nigh?
>>736314
I have the same olive German parka from the 80s and wore it for about a year now
It's a bit heavy in some situations but i love the design and functionality
>>743311
It comes from the boredom of life. A fantasy of being constantly active and alert, independent self sufficient.
>>731651
Gloves in that environment?
>>743301
alright thats fair play, i mean i was looking to use it for urban as well as woodland use so thatd be a problem, is there any other surplus coat or jacket you'd particularly recommend ?
>>743311
bright colors in outdoor clothing remind me of that inner city jack wolfskin hivemind wave that happened some years ago without the connection to extreme elements, nature and adventure
I also don't like camo, but love black and olive
>>743351
What is this jack wolfskin hivemind you speak of? What did he mean by this?
>>743484
it's a German thing. Germans love functionality in things even if they never use or need it.
Around 2009 jack wolfskin gear became extremely popular and omnipresent.
Especially with rather inactive or older people that live in a sheltered city environment.
Now there is a store in every small town but the brand also changed their image to appeal more dynamic again.
>>743311
Zombies are just a codeword for niggers and beaners.
You should be prepared now, Germany. Your zombies are getting hungry.
>>743500
Also, Jack Wolfskin products are actually kinda shitty. They're like Germany's North Face.
>>743351
It's true that over in the UK, the majority of people who buy a Gore-Tex jacket, for example, will never use it outdoors. But then again people buy North Face Evolution Triclimate jackets by the ton so horses for courses...
But it's nice when you see someone in a bright jacket that's covered in patches and scratches and you know the guy wearing it has been somewhere cool and climbed/hiked in it for years and it's his companion.

Those are good, they will readily absorb any errant drops of your beard oil when you are sending dick pics through snipchat or whatever the fuck it is you hipster faggots do these days.
I`ve always found Bear Grylls to use quite nice outdoor clothes
Any idea what brand these pants are?
>>729371
what show was this from again? I coulda sworn Ive seen it before

varg?
>>745491
What are those boots?
>>745893
Is he wearing some sort of gaiters?
What are some good ponchos? Or shoud I just get a rainproof or raincoat?
>>748635
It would depend on your objective, but in general ponchos are good against heavy rain. If that is not what you'll be facing, get a raincoat.
>>748640
Im visiting the Faeroer Islands on foot for 2 weeks.
So i just got the Husqvarna work shirt and one thing i'd love to have is leather/canvas patches on the elbows. Would it be worth taking it to a tailor or are patches just overrated?
>>748653
Check the weather for this time of the year for the last 3 years.
get a poncho if:
>Heavy rain — when the precipitation rate is > 7.6 mm (0.30 in) per hour,[105] or between 10 mm (0.39 in) and 50 mm (2.0 in) per hour[106]
>Violent rain — when the precipitation rate is > 50 mm (2.0 in) per hour[106]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain#Intensity
Don't trust the word of locals, as they are always used to the weather and will tend to underestimate.
Hope it helps.
>>743247
try going on their website, checking this box, and seeing how many models disappear.
hint: its almost all of them
>>748663
It depends on how much it's going to cost abd if it is a place you wear out.
>>728181
what is this called?
>>750524
It's a /fa/ meme. Don't bother
>>748626
yeah I think the part that says salomon are the gaiters.
>>727400
What, do you hike fully covered from head to tow in the summer? Maybe you should try shorts and a t-shirt. You know, like someone without brain defects?
>>728542
That......does not look good. To me anyway.
>>741638
I wear them for winter hiking, and in the summer if I'm going hiking somewhere especially muddy, but mostly its just in the snow.
Nothing worse than hiking in snow and having to stop every 30 feet and scoop snow out of your boots with your finger.
If you wear trail runners, they'd probably be helpful when doing scrambling so pebbles don't get in your shoe. The picutre looks like somewhere you'd get a lot of rocks in your shoes.
I'm looking for a pair of short shorts for summer hiking. Specifically, shorts with an inseam of 6" or below for men.
>>752086
Topo mountain shorts are comfy and lightweight
>>752086
>6" inseam
You want your balls to hang out?

that'd be a löjtnant m8
>>752086
go to a thrift store and buy some cheap running shorts. I've got some spaulding 6in shorts that are perf for hiking and cost me $2. Besides that, maybe look into Patagonia Baggies
>>731900
As a sami I say nah, it's hilarious.
just got his jacket off eBay for cheap. am happy
>>753204
>Norse
how much did it set you back? looks p sweet but too /fa/ to wear /out/ - i'd be worried about ruining it
>>753207
only AU$60 because eBay.
I only just googled it and realised it was waxed, is waxed good for outdoors? I know barbour coats are waxed but have never had one before
>>753207
not wearing it /out/ is ruining it. /fa/ is a terrible place full of people who weigh 100 lbs worshipping 70 pound gender neutral asians with weird haircuts.
What I'm getting at is that in 6 months it won't be cool to wear anymore anyway so don't be scurred senpai
>>753215
Ever handled a Drizabone? It's like that. An oldschool method of making waterproof gear that much of /out/ might poo-poo today for being heavy and not effective enough.
I think it does have some pros, though. It can take a beating and last a very long time. Though it will need re-applications of stuff occasionally.
