Hi, after some for the autumn/winter any recommends? Id want them waterproof as well as warm , looking at the ESP and the FOX brands but any users of either who could comment, thanks

I use the stash quilted through the summer and warmer autumn nights. Good comfortable fit and waterproof. Not warm enough on colder days though I switch over to trakker elements. I would like a look at the new esp 25k salopettes for colder days.

Snugpak salopettes... Richard Walker put me onto these years ago... I should have known tbh.

I use the Drennan ones, which will be the same as the ESPs all bar a few details. I’ve got both quilted and normal, both are fantastic. They are extremely waterproof but have superior breathability compared to other brands I’ve used (Preston, Korum). I would say though the quilted are very warm, so if you are a very mobile angler they may be a bit too much. I only use the quilted in winter (not autumn), and find the normal suffice for the rest of the year.

I've used some from Aldi for a few years and love them. Never sat out in a downpour in them though, so not 100% sure on their waterproof qualities.

Can't beat the Aldi ones for value and warmth, perhaps too warm on the milder days! I've had a pair for a few years and they are standing up far better than the Wychwood ones I had previously, also picked up another pair last time they were on sale as a future backup.
