Last thing Purchased.

Here is a Frostline 60/40 gortex parka in 'Burnt Orange'. From all the way in the United States where it was made lovingly by some man/women who had a interest in mountaineering.
Frostline was a brand which sold kits to craft you own jacket and add what/take away what you want and create your own jacket.

They did not just stop at jackets - You could make your own sleeping bag/bags to take up in the mountains, Just needed a sewing machine and a little bit of creativity.

The company stopped trading in mid - 2010 however the brand can be found on
 sites such as eBay, This one I purchased from a bloke in Cheshire.

Frostline is the brand which inspired Engineered Garments/Woolwich on there 60/40 jackets which continue to be a presence in there collection to this present day.
