New Capes ? www.pelerinen.ch

I have not found this among our information, so -
I found a new (to me) Swiss site where they make capes up to a maximum of 150 cm in length. They look like rubber lined cotton, but my German is not good enough to find out. They obviously aim their sales at whole families or clubs who go walking in the mountains. They are expensive, but then they are Swiss and if they live up to the norm for mountain gear they will be worth it. I think I worked out that a 46" (115 cm) length one would cost sFr 134 (£100) and the postage is sFr 12, but that may not be for sending to the UK.
I am taking the liberty of including a picture. I am sure they would not object to the publicity!!!
