Now I'm not a very good shopper so I've been planning on buying replacement overtrousers for several years!! My main use is prone target shooting plus RO'ing. I swallowed hard when my wife suggested a trip to yatchy shops and saw the prices.....So I saved myself for Aldi....yay!!!

At the moment Aldi have camo or green fishing trousers for £25. Breathable, waterproof, windproof and padded. Zip and Velcro fly so no more accidents on the bib

. Opening ankle for boots.

Hope this helps someone!!

Cool, I will take a look. I've been using some old snowboard salopettes. Keeps me warm and dry, but they have seen better days.

I use those country covers (now Fortis clothing) overtrousers,i wear jeans or whatever under them in winter and just the over trousers in less cold conditions, they are waterproof and breathable,£100 tho,but I've had mine 8 years with God knows how much stalking,rough shooting and range time and they are still amazing...

I guess everyone has heir own favourites....
I bought NewOldStock german army bib overtrousers.
First pair lasted me 8 years cycling to work every day. Am now on second pair and bought a third to go in the loft for when current ones wear out!

For £35 they're amazing.... Genuine Goretex without other branding. No padding in these though.

Seller huitz-uk. And the 42/44 is 'gross' so a large... Good overtrousers on my 36/38 uk waist.

Aldi also sell fisherman's gloves with fold back fingers for £4-99 if I remember correctly.

They are made of some sort of green neoprene type material and are warm and waterproof, terrific value for money.

I have a pair of DPM overtrousers by Kammo. http://www.kammo.co.uk/shop/4577492147/ ... pm/7431577

They are warm and silent. If you wash and retreat them correctly they will last you years. Had mine about 10 years. They are cheaper now than when I bought them, bugger!

Overtrousers they are not, but I bought a pair of 5.11 Tactical trousers in Teflon coated ripstop polycotton with reinforced gusset and many pockets for just £35.

I can confirm that they are water resistant, windproof and keep me warm on cold days.

For very cold days I have a pair of fleece lined Buffalo trousers.

I have been using Regatta Professional waterproof (breathable) trousers for the last 2 seasons and they are superb, it's Isotex 5000 which copes well with kneeling/sitting in pools of water during the winter CSR matches, under £30 delivered on ebay.
