Okay sun hoodie
September 3, 2023

I would spend a few more dollars and get a more technical sun hoodie. The fabric is okay, definitely a lower quality than other sun hoodies I own. It washes well, fit is true to size.
Their email blast were pushy, asking for more purchases before the package even arrived.
Based on item quality and customer service/marketing I won't be ordering from this brand again, there are many other high quality outdoor brands offering higher quality products.

Waterproof pants

Yes they arrived on time but the size was much bigger than the sizes we have in Australia. So I have sent the item back to you and I am waiting for my refund.

So happy with the quality
July 28, 2023

By far the best trousers that I have for my outdoor work projects. I do a lot of bending and the trousers are so comfortable but more importantly hardy and flexible.

Would highly recommend.
