DS is going to Andorra over Easter 2015 with the school. I have a vague kit list of what will be required already and am keen to start assembling stuff now as the trip is quite pricey and I don't want to have to spend a big wedge just before he goes. He will be nearly 11 when he travels.
Which brands should I be looking for for salopettes, jacket and gloves? We are an outdoorsy family and DS has a selection of warm base layers anyway so should be OK in that respect. After bitter experience freezing my butt off while shooting I am overly aware of the quality/ cost compromise and will always buy the best we can afford. As far as DS is concerned I also like stuff that will have a decent resale value when he has outgrown it.
So what to choose? He likes Animal but I'm unsure whether I am simply paying for the name rather than exceptional quality? If so which other brands should I be looking at?
