Endorsements cont'd..Pete Mcfarlane - Scotland's outdoor guru to thousands - says this of Taranaki baselayer:
I've washed it in water that was far too hot, I've left it lying crushed and festering at the bottom of the washbasket on occasion and it's been accidentally tumble dried with Holly's stuff on more than one occasion.
Simply, I’ve tried to destroy it and failed.
It's been great to wear, performs as you'd expect a nice bit of merino to do and it's kept its shape. The seams, which aren't flatlocked, haven't caused me any grief. This is something which always comes up in reviews and in popular opinion, flat lock seams don't chafe. I think we need to revisit that and say "Well finished seams don't chafe".
Merino is where it's at for your first layer, it's just more comfortable and it protects you from the unfriendlines of softshell pants against the skin. You don't stink in the tent or in the motor on the way home.
I like the Chocolate Fish stuff. I'll be using it all constantly through winter. The fabric strikes the right balance between stretchy softness and having a bit of resistance. The cut is just right for me, the tops keep my kidneys warm and stay tucked in, the leggings don't have an irritating waistband or ride up the crack of my arse (these things are vital to our mission and must be shared),
and the Beanie is magic. Celia in Francesays: Tony posts on the bikersoracle website in response to a posting on Icebreaker gear Ondrej emailed us from Slovakia to say Emma from Sheffield emails to say TRIALS UK RECOMMEND CHOCOLATE FISH Cyclist Alex Baker was one of the first to try out our new lightweight Taranaki 190 beanie and has this to say: It fits great under a helmet and the seams are a lot less noticeable than the synthetic ones I have used (Polaris and Lusso) It is not quite as warm but that's a good thing as after adding 250g of super-insulating polystyrene helmet you can over heat pretty fast. All the normal praise for super fine merino applies (no itch, does not stink after a few rides, works well over a range of temperatures etc...) For £7.50 its a cracking bit of kit...!" A contributor to Outdoors Magic forum posted: Chocolate Fish - the special one! It's become one of those companies that you find so good that you start recommending to anyone you know with a passion for the outdoors.
