Cheapy kagoul's

I'm wanting to buy 4 adult and 2 childrens cheapy Kagoul's just so that I can store them on the RIB to use on a rainy day if I and the crew get caught out. I'm not after anything fussy, just something that isn't going to fall to pieces in 5 minutes of use.

About a £5er per garment or cheaper. Anyone give me a link to a supplier?

Thanks Andy, I've not heard that word - Kagoul - for about thirty years.

You've brought back happy childhood memories of school field trips, and bright Orange 'Kagouls' that if you were skilled enough could be folded inside out into the large front pocket to carry around like a small pillow.

You were the hero of all your school chums if your parents had splashed out on an expensive one, and inside the pocket was an elastic belt that allowed you to carry the packed up kagoul around attached to your waist.

Ahh, happy memories.

Sorry can be absolutely no help at all with where to buy them.

Nasher.

As strange as this might seem try someone like Screwfix or Machine mart.

Otherwise a google search of workware

Usually a lot cheaper than the high street outlets

Those kagouls will be as much good as a chocolate fire guard in a solent squall
Sounds like child cruelty to me ?











Happy new year mate

I been told that for cheap waterproofs one must visit poundland or other £1 stores! am not sure of the cost though!

Not that i have been in in any of these, so it might be a rumour!

Check out Peter Storm - the original kagoul. Should have taped seams as an absolute minimum, otherwise Garfish's binliner is a close second!
http://www.peterstorm.com/

How on earth can www.kagoul.com be a site for gay men?

Try www.targetdry.co.uk/browse/mac-in-a-sac I got them for the whole family and they are really good. They pack up into tiny bags that are easy to store on the boat. Not sure how much I paid but it was more than a fiver.
