New Season Styles and Colours from Paramo

We have just taken delivery of new products from Paramo in our Harrogate Branch. There are fresh new colours for established favourites like the men’s and ladies’ Cascada Jacket and some technical new introductions in the guise of the versatile Summit Hoodie co-ordinated with the Fuera Ascent windproof jacket.



Women’s Cascada Jacket £194
Páramo’s top selling walking jacket, the Cascada is suitable for a wide range of hill walking
activities, from winter walking to dog walking, from rambling to munro bagging. An established favourite, the most popular colour for many years has been Heather. We thought we’d change things a little and have introduced Plum, a richer colour with a raspberry trim.

Men’s Cascada Jacket £194
Páramo’s top selling walking jacket, the Cascada is suitable for a wide range of hill walking activities, from winter walking to dog walking, from rambling to munro bagging. An established favourite, usually available in a variety of fairly dark colours, we thought we’d brighten things up for Spring and have introduced this version in Chilli Pepper with dark grey trim.

New Torres Gilet £77
The new Torres Gilet has lost weight with a new face fabric and 100g synthetic insulation meaning it tips the scales at an average 330g. This has been achieved even though the new version is also slightly longer than it’s predecessor. It can be used for overlayering over an Páramo waterproof garment or worn directly over a base layer. Either way it will deliver fast insulation when needed for the body’s core torso area without encumbrance on the arms. It packs down into its own breast pocket for transporting, but this low pack size can deliver a high warmth-for-weight ratio even when wet.


Women’s Fuera Crest Jacket £66
The NEW Fuera Crest is the first wind proof garment in the Paramo range designed specifically for women, with a contoured fit and well thought-out features making it an ideal multi-activity jacket. The Fuera Crest is a very versatile water-repellent (if maintained with Nikwax TX Direct Wash-in) windproof which combines well with both Cambia and Parameta S baselayers for temperate days when breathability and flexibility are more important than total weatherproofing.

Men’s Fuera Ascent Jacket £82
The technical Fuera Ascent is an exceptionally versatile windproof for worldwide summer alpine and multi-activity use, being harness, rope, pack and helmet friendly. The Directional Windproof fabric provides renewable water-repellency and excellent breathability plus is tough, lightweight and rapid drying. The generous sleeve/torso vents allow excellent temperature control and work systemically with the Summit Hoodie Fleece to create a highly flexible duo, precisely adjustable for variable conditions and a wide range of temperatures.
 

Summit Hoodie £112
The technical Summit Hoodie is a versatile mid layer for worldwide summer alpine and multi-activity use, being harness, rope, pack and helmet friendly. The Nikwax Fleece fabric provides renewable water-repellency, excellent insulation and a cosy feel. The generous sleeve/torso vents allow excellent temperature control and are designed to co-ordinate with those in the Fuera Ascent Windproof Jacket to create a highly flexible duo, precisely adjustable for variable conditions. The average weight of this garment is 580g, illustrating Paramo’s commitment to reducing weight in their technical garments.

25 years on...still going strong

In November 1992 we were working hard to get our shop in Peebles opened. We were living in a draughty old shepherd's cottage in the Moorfoot Hills at the time and one day, our landlady remarked that there was a famous mountaineer coming to give a fundraising talk in aid of the village hall. It seemed unlikely but yes, Chris Bonington was coming to Carrington. It proved to be a memorable evening that people still occasionally mention to us today. Standing room only with an eclectic audience of school children, Women's Institute stalwarts, elders of the kirk and a smattering of outdoor enthusiasts. It probably wasn't the kind of gathering Bonington was used to speaking to but his professionalism and communication skills ensured that his stories came alive for everyone in the room. At the end of the presentation we joined the scrum of autograph hunters and got his signature on a poster which we hung in our new shop on the day it opened. It stayed on the wall for quite a few...
