Pleased to hear its all coming back, and yeah hopefully the 'made in China' doesnt reduce the quality, bloody shame about the HnF exclusive deal, i fucken hate spending my $ at the local shop, and only do it if i absolutly have too.

Hunting and fishing brought them.

SWANNDRI might be iconic, but they are bloody terrible things. You just need to be in a wet one to know that. Heavy, soggy damned things. Wet to the skin, and as soon as you step into the wind you freeze.

Sadly, I wore them for over 30 years. My last one is in the dog kennel, and the dog drags it out and leaves it in the backyard. I think she resents it too.

They used to smell like a Wet Dog ! Before the even got used as dog beds . On that note I wonder how many lost pig dogs got to sleep a night or two on swannies left out in hope of hosting that lost pooch ?

had a look at some of the new gear branded huntech at the Tahr show . the only thing similar was the brand. just saying

im glad you said almost!

Best thing that happened to Swanndri was when they enlisted the lovely Karen Walker. The stuff she had them making I wore to work in Queen Street, warm and rustic yet smart enough for business wear.

Hey at the end of the day no one is dragging you to buy the shit.............................................. ...................just saying.

Just heard through the grapeline that the people who bought Huntech are also the ones that provide the clothing for H&F

I had a look at the tshirts and tops yesterday, look like rebranded hf clothing to me, but we will see when the rest comes out
