    Well other than I look great !!!! The vest has big pockets for shells or what ever and the breks are just the best for in and out of boots or if a little warm just socks to protect your legs .Tweed is all wool -the best fabric ever and its very comfortable to wear ...... you should try it sometime.
    Tweed or not to Tweed that is the question

    It's not the actual dress choice I'm having trouble with, its the reason behind it. If you were blue-blooded landed gentry I'd understand, if it was entirely practical I can understand too. It's got this classless mongrel stumped All I can surmise is that it makes you happy, if so then good on ya. It would be a boring world if we all owned labs and spaniels

    It was a genuine question at the start but you seem to have taken it sideways .... Take it as you will...

    As for an opinion
    With NZ weather I don't think your dressing choice has too much use so the looks my be swaying your decision more than anything.
    5 minutes it rains, 10 minutes its boiling hot. Waterproofs will make you sweat, anything else you'll get socked in it from the rain, so you screwed both ways. The way I see it, wearing less is the best, anything that dries fast. Looks for hunting don't matter, Trials jeans do the job really.

    At the end whatever floats your boat Brian.

    I don't believe you but that doesn't matter !!! Just enjoy yourself Petros in what ever you do and don't knock others for doing so as-well --no offense taken and enjoy your weekend in Northland

    What are trials jeans? If they are denim then they are in fact the worst thing you can wear here for hunting.

    jeans do our trial sport no favors in the eyes of others.Imagine the hunt if they didnt turn up in Red and Black coats but jeans --I dont think many would bother to follow it as the whole tradtion would be ruined . Traditions ,maybe one appreciates them more as one gets a little older ..doesnt one lol
