ok dont get the blue magic marine ones - they disintergrate... go 4 roosters or the gul ones but always go for under the knee ones and knee pads or if you get the abuv the nee ones buy knee pads too - ones with padded knees n a cut out back or with a back of a lighter (?) material...

dont get the rooster ones! they will fall apart, ive had mine 4 a year and the battens fall out of the pockets and the seams are fallin apart, the new magic marine ones with the adjustable battens are really good tho

my rooster ones are great ok so the tumble drier nearly tore them to shreds and theyre now held together by the pair of lycra shorts i wear over them but they work and theyre better than the gul ones |
