Catherine in Cumbria

Catherine in Cumbria

We're constantly impressed by what Genus customers get up to in our gear.  From creating incredible orchards, landscapes and allotments, to using them on archaeological digs.

Last week, we received a lovely email from Catherine in Cumbria.  She's training for a punishing 18 mile hike across Snowdonia in aid of Prostate Cancer.  She's finding her Warm and Dry Trousers offer superb protection from the elements in terrible weather and, in slippery conditions, the kneepads "made slipping down like landing on a feather pillow."  Her photograph shows how well the Warm and Dry are standing up to other sodden leg wear - the design team has added it to their inspiration board for more winter developments!

Good luck with the hike Catherine!
