Sitting suits. Anyone tried one?

opinions on these for the winter months in a van

SITTINGSUITS

The Sittingsuit is the extra layer that keeps you warm on chilly days. The wind proof and water-repellant fabrics and padding will make sure to protect you from almost any weather and temperature. It is big enough for you to wear over your coat, as an add-on when necessary.

Are they just onezies

 

[Janine]

Some friends of mine have them but the suits are ginormous! A definite trip hazard for a shortarse like me.

 

[Lenny HB]

The way gas prices are going up I might have to get one and look a right pratt.

Trouble is with our insulated homes & central heating got used to walking around in tee shirts in the middle of winter.

Lucky you, I've got the heating cranked up to max and still cold.

Struck me that it was a onezie with a zip

They look like those swimming coats that seem very popular these days - called dryrobes, i believe.

Just looks like a badly fitting coat to me

 

[Spriddler]

If I had to get stuffed up in one of those to be warm when sitting around I'd stay at home.

Looks like my sleeping bag

I was thinking the same

I had a quick look at the men's section on their website to see prices etc.

I was confused that the description of the one suit i viewed said one size unisex design - why have a men's section and a ladies section if that's true?

Looks like a copy of the Grade 1, unissued, ‘German Sniper Sleeping Bag’ I bought for about £15 back in the ‘90s - but without the waterproof outer.

 

[Armytwowheels]

Some of us have these for use after open water swimming during the cooler months, also

very handy for sitting around in the evening when camping.

Very glamorous don't you think!

No probably, their website states made in China but then so are most things these days.

Churchill had a siren suit during the war so nothings new I suppose.

 

[Wack]

Made out of old plastic bottles , is 799kr about £60

 

[tacr2man]

Going by the size you just need an extra pair of sleeves and share one

Pete's probably still got the all weather onesie he bought c. 40 years ago that often had one of the girls (daughters or niece) in it as well as him apparently when they got too cold! They are supposed to be baggy to accommodate normal winter clothes underneath and successfully trap enough air to fulfil their intended function.

The New James Bond, looks super cool, even with the dangling labels. Miss Moneypenny looks a real hot Chic.....swims like a fish too...

 

[Armytwowheels]

And of course a great opportunity to be silly after a glass of wine or two.

They also sell a gym bag to put the coat in - defo a sleeping bag in disguise. Mind you, the Artist edition is quite nice

I’ve recently invested in a Kudd.ly bought initially for sitting outside at night when away in the van. Decided to try it out at home and absolutely love it. I haven’t had my central heating on yet as a result. Yes I look a prat but as there is only the dog to see me I don’t care!!
