You typed out the URL incorrectly.

Can you find this offer at their site and post a link? Their search isn't very good.

*ETA*

I found the items. Here is the Jacket and here are the pants.

The first picture leads me to believe that you only have 4 fingers on your left hand. Creepy.

Nice tip, Warden; thanks!

Tell us more about the stuff, and what you do and don't like.

How was the sizing? They don't have a jacket in my usual size (38), though they do have small sized pants. Did I ask how was the sizing? :-)

He does only have four fingers on that hand. The fifth digit is called a thumb.

Five fingers......now that would be creepy.

Jeez, I only have 4 fingers on my left hand too

. Maybe it's a Sprint thing.

Is the armor CE approved?

HI WardenRoss,
I have had those Tecknic pants for several years now, same design. Do you have hip and knee armour and zip out thermal lining?

Don yes mine is CE approved, also very good hip armour.

Oho, I have 4 fingers on my left hand too............geez it is a Sprint thing, very creepy indeed!

cheers,
DaveM

I updated the links above...

Also counted my toes and fingers this morning...Looks like they are all there...sorry for the scare!

Sizes...

I wear a 46" in a suit jacket....ordered a 46" in the Teknic jacket and it fits right.

I wear a 38" in dress pants...ordered a 36" in the Teknic pants and it fits right (they are designed as overpants, but I wanted to wear them as regular pants, thats why the smaller size).

They are Gore-Tex XCR material...very "high end" stuff at a bargan price.

Here is a review on similar gear (I don't agree with his sizing complaints).

You guys in the 'states get all the good deals, you can't even buy Levis 501's in Aus any more (at any price!).
