Are these knot trail stars with the new green fabric? Not had a look at it yet. I think for the money some of the knot stuff is hard to beat

I wonder if the green is a different fabric or just colour? They absorb a decent amount of water but its surprisingly good stuff.

I read somewhere that the green fabric was a little different but the only person I know who has bought both versions is @Mole and he ain't sayin'...

The green is by Knot. The fabric is better quality than the orange I had initially. More consistent weave and not as creased looking coating. Construction is the same.
I paid £36.82 posted for the green one last July. From Yuki Shop.

If you can live with the gray, I can beat that price by a fiver including shipping. Mine won't come with pegs (I dumped them) but it is seam sealed.
Hi Balagan, that would be great, thank you very much. If you message me your details I'll send the payment over with my address.

Alpha comes in several variants. The original one was too fragile to be used without an internal lining, then a more solid one made it optional and finally the latest one can be used without lining or face fabric. Whichever one the Thermoshell uses, I reckon the lining was mandatory because it is wafer thin. I was expecting something a little beefier but I'm keeping mine because I like it. It's more of a light fleece replacement with some characteristics of a windshirt.

@Balagan so you own Inov8 termoshell? So its "softshell"?

Same :rolleyes: I do find webtogs a pain though, hardly ever any decent info on products, at least on mobile so that should help.

I had not seen the Pardox before! How does it compare to their other insulated midlayers like altus or cirrus?

Asking for a friend....
