What a massive lovely collection. How do you even chose what to wear with that many pieces.

When you have a large collection it's always difficult to choose what to wear, I'm sat here right now in a pair of unlined PVC chest waders that only arrived today, but I can't get the thought of my Farmerrain HD rainsuit or one of my Maxden's out of my head, I know my collection is way too big just now, 40 rainsuits, 22 pairs of boots, 7 pairs of chest waders, 3 drawers full of gloves and let's not forget the dozen or so gas masks, coveralls and hazmat suits, and all this is crammed into a one bedroom flat, I'm glad my landlord doesn't come round that often :)

OUTSTANDING collection!

I see how FOMO comes into play: I would not have wanted to miss them.

I like to think each coat has a story, has a place, has a person related to it.

:lol:I know I can sit there ages looking at it all. At least mine doesn't seem to be as big as some of your gorgeous hordes. And it's broken down a bit by what kind of session we have planned.

I'd say go maxden but then again it may be because that's one I missed out on and value it rarity and peaks my interest. Really always wondered what those were like in real life.

I feel sad for the ones that don't get used and go in storage. Like they are lonely not carrying out there purpose.

I am ruined: all I could think about last night was that huge watermelon! The soft PVC and the odor was haunting me. i would tell myself if I had that watermelon I would get wrapped up in it and be so cozy.

This is things dreams are made of.
