im a hot person anyway but its getting serious out there!

dragin camo pants for winter with backup waterproofs and longjohns if need be! , i usually wear army lightweights with really long knee lenghth socks but been wearing tracky bottoms recently, just too warm!!!

anyone know a cheap alternative? not spending another £100 on trousers!! was thinking of stealing the armour from my never worn aikitos and stitching them into my combats then swapping the into my draggins for winter? anyone ever done this, any pointers im not too hot with a needle!

or a tracky comfy pair of cheap summer armoured troos? any links?

cheers

Steve

just get some stick on velcro and stick it on the armour pads and on the inside of your pants ,

or get some hein gericke strap on knee protectors £25 last time I looked,

or go to a market and get some iron on sheets , where you iron it on and it sticks piss easy to make pockets with that stuff to accept some knox
