Thread: Stoney Creek Jackets - feedback wanted

Used Swazi for a few years now and got work to buy me the Stoney Creek Tundra jacket and pants to try.

Jacket is waterproof (as in from above via rain), as much as a garment can be with holes for your head and arms. Pockets in good places,

Trousers not well thought out at all, too loose round the waist on mine and the belt it comes with will pinch together at the back when tightened up. Too loose round the ankles with no real way to tighten up apart from the press studs which are too far forward so not tight enough. Might add another one later.

The Tundra material is way too loud if you wear the jacket and trousers together. Prefer to just wear the jacket then a set of Swazi overtrousers with the soft material. Otherwise it sounds like someone rubbing sandpaper together!

Made in China, huge negative for me and explains how they are able to come in at their price point. Would not be surprised if someone found a message begging for help inside one, what with the Chinese using Uyghur slave labour. Pretty disgusting how a company can profit from exporting labour like that, not taking on any responsibility for their workforce. Swazi not perfect but seeing 'sown by Jane in NZ' gives a bit more comfort to the mind. Then again have Swazi not started using labour in Thailand to make their cheaper stuff?

The search for perfection continues...
