After the “tame” Garden Route we can hardly wait to finally set off inland. The national parks are lined up next to each other like pearls on a string, and the Addo Elephant Park is certainly one of the most popular. We pull up amongst the crowds at the entrance, which seems rather like an amusement park with souvenir shops, cafés, restaurants and campsites. Everything is so pedantically maintained that no blade of grass grows in the “wrong” place.

The Ultimate Road Trip: Meet Our Guest Bloggers
For anyone with suffering from an incurable case of wanderlust, a cross-country road trip is the ultimate in adventure. Save the money. Quit the job. Buy the van. Throw the map out the window, put your feet on the dash and go.

That’s exactly what Mary Hall and Adam Rondepierre are doing, and they’re living proof that spontaneous adventure can actually involve quite a bit of dreaming—and planning. Before meeting, they both dreamt of experiencing America on an undetermined route. For Adam, he envisioned photographing the landscape while searching for waves, inspiring art and gluten-free food. Mary’s plan was to mosey from mountain town to mountain town in search of trails to hike and ride (while stopping frequently to drink beer and shop for antiques).

Pennine Outdoor Waterproof Fabrics



The MET Office has recently revealed that the 2012 summer was the wettest across the UK in 100 years. In June, July and August, over 370 mm of rain fell throughout the United Kingdom. These figures also follow a wettest April, meaning that so far, it's fair to say that 2012 has been a washout. Now that we are officially into the Autumn season, things can only get wetter. If you are wanting to design and create you own outdoor clothing, you really need to look into picking the right waterproof fabrics.

Waterproof Fabrics PVC Coated Printed Ripstop


PVC - Stardom
I think we should have called this Saturday Night Fever, I might even be daring enough and use this to cover my kitchen table. We have just bought a new table, after 10 years, and the original one came in the house so it was very old. We finally went for it and bought a new table for £150, heavily discounted because there is a crack in it bit the top is a beautiful round slab of oak and my son just wants to dent it with his knife and fork, the more we say no the more he laughs. Maybe this will stun him into remission?
To tell you a little bit about the fabric, it is a PVC coated ripstop fabric, waterproof and pretty stiff, not too stiff but it is not like a rubber coated polyurethane which would be totally malleable. You could make wonderful bags, aprons, table coverings and the more adventurous could try making a jacket.

Jacket Men's
Jacket Outdoor
Jacket Outdoor Station

I have this jacket for 2 years now and wearing it mainly around town. This jacket is sufficient for my purpose but if you are looking for something technical, go elsewhere. The fabric is made from polyester with a thin layer of fleece backing. I find them neither very wind nor water resistance. The fabric is also stiff compare to my other jacket using the Windstopper fabric.
On its own, this is a good looking jacket but when you consider the price, there are other jackets with better features. If Arcteryx is your thing, save the money here and go for one of their more expensive jackets.

Customer Review :
1. I needed a waterproof boot for walking, with a low heel and good traction. After trying several brands and styles in the store, I ordered these online. They are nearly perfect. The one and only drawback is I wish they were not so wide across the ball of the foot, since my feet are fairly narrow. Worn with a hiking weight sock, they are very comfortable, but feel sloppy with a regular weight sock. The instep, ankle and heel fit are great and they don't slip. Love the looks with pants or skirts. They're also light, warm, and have good arch support.

2. I am so so happy I bought these boots. They are comfortable, actually waterproof, and are flat boots that actually look cool (which is very hard to find, at least in my experience). I've worn them every day since I got them, about 2 weeks ago, including in a few rain storms. They clean up quickly and easily when they get muddy, too. Plus, they look good with skirts. Love 'em!

3. I love my new Laura Croft boots!! :-)
someone told me they looked like something she would wear so that was an extra cool compliment.
First of all i have been suffering from plantar faciitis over a year now and after therapy and such i have progressed. I havent been able to wear heels for sometime now or anything attractive or stylish... until now!
The inserts do have a natural arch support which is wonderful.

I wear a 7 1/2 and they are TRUE TO FIT for my feet. I was worried they would be too small but then again, it is not a heel, and i tend to go 1/2 size down in heels.

I am very pleased with this boot. In fact i dont think i could ever go back to a high-heel boot again. I was so happy and pleased that the folks at Merrell were able to invent a boot made for walking and comfort.

I have the Cherry Brown which are just beautiful. the leather started to scuff on the first day and at first i was annoyed but i actually started to like it. the scuffs make it look distressed and add dimension to the leather. besides, perfectly looking leather shoes are boring.

my only other minor nit is that they dont zip up all the way on my calf unless i squeeze in, but that is because i could lose a few pounds. no biggie.
this is a great leather boot for fall/winter and will have plenty of life in the years to come since they are seasonal and well made.
Next, i plan to get the Merrell Spire Peak boot in black!
