Freezer Suits - Expression of Interest

Time again for expression of interest in your winter gear folks.

Feelling the cold yet?
Want to be comfortable throughout your observing sessions?

As i have now retired from business, i am keeping minimal stock - but will continue to provide freezerware to this community as long as there is sufficient demand.
I have a minimum order requirement of $500, so please get your orders in if you are interested so that we can make up enough to place an order

if you are interested please send a PM

geoff

Full Suits $185 (XS to 5XL)
Jackets $145
Trousers $115
Bib Trousers $125
Vest $85
(larger sizes available - ask for pricing)

sizing guidlines as follows

to give you an idea of sizing look at the following
..............Pants......Waist..... .Coat...Chest
.sm..-........77reg.......30"/77cm............ ...34"/87cm
.med.-........87reg.......34"/87cm............ ...38"/97cm
.Lge.-........97reg.......38"/97cm............ ...42"/107cm
.XL..-.......107reg.......42"/107cm............ ...46"/117cm
.2XL.-.......117reg.......46"/117cm............ ...50"/127cm
.3XL.-.......127reg.......50"/127cm............ ...54"/137cm
and so on - add 10/4" to the pants and 4" to the jacket for each size up

this also applies to full suits

My freezer wear comes in a couple of flavours

you have a full one piece suit,
separate trousers and jacket
you can also have bib & brace overalls and jacket
on top of that, for less severe weather there is a vest

Hepworths freezer suits comprise the following -

• Tough PU coated oxford nylon outer, reinforced at front and arms
• Hi Viz Safety panels to front, back and arms
• Nylon taffeta lining channel quilted with thick bonded polyester fibre
• Hevy duty YKK slide zippers under velcoro tape storm seal covers
• Leg zippers are full length for fast dressing and undressing
• Roomy hand warming and utility pockets, upper chest and arm pockets
• Generous bulk knit collar and concealed draft-free knit wrists
• Hood lined with comfortable boa, finished with knitted windseal
• Reflective tape used on our garments is Australian supplied 3M tape
• 2 way zip
• Phone and pen pocket at left breast

I've had a Hepworth freezer suit for maybe 20 years now. It's still in as new condition - they're absolutely made to last. Additionally, they're beyond warm. During a Sydney winter, just light clothing underneath is fine and you'll be toasty. For the price of a 2" filter, they're money well spent.
