Tiso Waterproof Test on Sutor Machine
« on: August 06, 2012 »

Anyone ever had a waterproofness test done by Tiso?
Thinking of testing out my new Mountain Equipment jacket.

Anyone know how long the turnaround on it is?

Nipped in yesterday and spoke to Dean and Dave in the middle floor of Tisos.
They gave each jacket a good looking over and the consensus is that the berghaus needs sprayed and the Mountain Equipment is fine - its just a lot warmer than the berghaus im used to and ive been sweating in it.

More use of the pit zips I reckon.

Dave also managed to sort out a zip which has been very badly stuck for some time now - so I should be able to continue using the berghaus about town to spare the Mountain Equipment for the hills.

Well pleased with the help from both of them, good blokes and know their stuff.

The only downside to going outdoors is having to come back inside.

I do a free one that involves elastic bands and a garden hose.
