New Base Layer: Paramo Men's Mountain Pull On

Well the nice folks at Go Outdoors (thanks Adam) have sent me a new base layer to try just in time for the colder weather.

With winter on its way, I was offered my choice of fleece or baselayers  and was spoiled for choice.....

I have opted for a Paramo one - a brand that I have always coveted but never yet bought. Paramo have a really innovative approach to clothing that is pretty unique.

I will try it out on the hill this weekend but so far I have been impressed by the quality of the thing, with zips at the arm pit for ventilation, a nice deep zip at the neck and overall excellent workmanship.

I am looking forward to trying this out!

I have been looking at these too. Does the chest zip have a decent backing strip?

(Hairy chest here with too many painful zip experiences to mention!)

The whole thing is reversible Alan but there is no zip guard. Not sure how my hairy chest will cope either.

Hmmm. I'll cross that one off then!

I think these tps must be designed by smooth skinned women!
