Try strauss direct.  FAst and some  good deals on.  Good prices and the embroidery is good too.

We got 4 shirts, 2 water proof jackets ( warm too) and 4 sweatshirts.  All embroidered for about £120 I think.  give or take a few bob
only strauss gear i have is "classic" trousers,very hardwearing,good practical designs and good service with no hassles on returns
Good quality hmmmm,why take em back then.

High prices?  You pay for what you get - simple as that.

The polo shirts are pretty rubbish quality but we buy 20 at a time (there's 4 of us) so that equals a fresh shirt everyday of the week.

Look at it this way

2 jackets per man = £220
2 trousers per man = £200
5 polo shirts = £20
pair of boots = £60

total cost = £500 per man

We look good, it definitely helps getting new jobs/better jobs

Staff and myself work better (its a psychological thing) in Uniform.

I agree yes the jackets and trousers are expensive but they last really well.

Only my son and I have the regatta x-ert jackets, we bought them for leisure wear but got them embroidered anyway - always advertising.

2 jackets per man = £220
2 trousers per man = £200 I can under stand the jackets but the trousers  :o

the trousers are full goretex, they are the best available.

Trust me - worth every penny.

Never too warm/cold/wet - just right all the time, they look good and last really well.

ahhh

nice one jsmc

the ones we have are Goretex brand, so they are definitely top quality but if I can get something similar for less then thats where I'll go.

Thanks mate
