Angling Times said of this
"If you want to keep warm this winter get yourself one of these new cold-weather systems, they're absolutely magic!"
Their full page review of this clothing raved about it, and awarded it a maximum six stars for 'Features' and 'Quality', plus five stars for 'Value for Money' (it is 170 quid you know!).
The Minus Ten Outer Shell is manufactured from a specially toughened form of Silcatex which utilises a bonded membrane to make it extremely breathable and absolutely waterproof.
It is available as a one piece suit or as jacket and Bib 'n Brace Trousers, and comes complete with the Sleepskin Underlayer combination.
What is the Sleepskin System
Sleepskin is a technically advanced material used by mountaineers and other extreme sportsmen. It has abnormally high breathability and thermal properties, and is exclusive to Sundridge in the angling market.
How Does it work
Sleepskin is enormously effective at trapping warm air next to the skin, and at the same time transferring moist air and sweat away from the body to the outside of the Sleepskin, where it is dispersed by evaporation. Removing this moisture defeats the major cause of wind chill and hypothermia whilst body heat is sustained by retention of warm air flow next to the skin.
How Do You Use It ?
Sleepskin is worn as a mid layer between underclothes and an outer protective garment. You don't need to wear anything else as this revolutionary layer system keeps you warm and dry without any need for bulky uncomfortable clothing.
