  • Hi, my son also works outside with animals and one of the things he really appreciated last winter was those little hand warmers you could put inside your gloves.

    Someone I know who has worked outdoors as a gardener, electricity pylon repair bod, etc, for over 40 years recommends boiler suits.

    They stop that awful gap that keeps appearing between your trouser waist and top, and keep your back and kidneys from getting chilled.
