Thread: Ready to go

Obey Z Uzbeki or you cant shoot .................. better stick with those Chinese made hunting clothes

Why would Uzbeki pretend to be something he isn't?

what you mean comfortable in wool ?

No, dressing like a tool

that doesnt say much about me but does about you

Why would he wear tweed? I'd respect him if he turned up on a horse in his Macedonian grab but tweed?

lets face it Pointer the question asked was loaded , Petros can wear a dress for all I care if he enjoys it !! Im not one to knock another mans choice of clothes if he looks different than others ..although some are knockers in all areas of life....................

I'm all for it. Tweed may well be your culture, but it isn't NZs. My concern isn't the clothes themselves, its with the elitist tag associated with it. It is the exact reason that our forefathers and the acclimatization societies populated this country with game, so that every person could hunt it, not just the landed gentry.

Uzbek you need a donkey to ride in on

You do look great bro...

Tweed has been worn in New Zealand for as long as I can remember Harris tweed ..... Breks as a style may not have although I would imagine in the early years they may well have been as the wool made garments were what keep our grandfathers warm as the styly Chinese made polyfluff hadnt entered the market .The Brits making these style of shooting suits are onto it me thinks -you may not but Im not going to knock your stubbies and polar fleece as Im not that small minded ........

No WH, although I swear by merino as an underlayer in comparison to polyprop

I couldn't see anything more impractical for my type of upland shooting where I do a lot of miles on what can turn out to be hot sunny days. Now I certainly could take notes in the presentation department in general and I do like your approach in dressing for trials but it would simply not be practical to wear that stuff while hunting. For me at least.
