Unfortunately, Mel had to be out all day, so, post the in bed card opening (Mya not me, I didn't get a look in) and the lovely Black Farmers' sausages and eggs for breakfast the day was all me and Mya.
As the sun again graced us with it's presence we decided to hit the beach. There's still a nip in the air and I wanted to try Mya in her new ski jacket and she already loves wearing it.
The jacket is from Wed'ze - read the bumf below - official sponsors of the European Winter X-Games basically it is one of the brands considered to be a Decathlon own brand check out www.decathlon.co.uk
Decathlon being a French brand (first store opened in Lille) promote French companies and over the years have worked with brands who see the value of being associated with such a large organisation. Others include Quechua, Simond, Tribord, Geologic, Domyos.
Their products are all really good and offer great value for money with some great materials and styles.
Mya's jacket is made from the material "stratermic" www.stratermic.com which is thermal, windproof and waterproof.
It comprises a hood, powder skirt, one internal elasticated pocket, two velcro closing waist pockets and one velcro closing breast pocket, zipped front with velcro wind stopper and velcro cuffs. Inside there's also a label for name, address and phone number.
Mya loves wearing it already even though it's still a little big for her. So far we've only tested it against the cold and slight icy breeze and it performs really well.
We remained outside for about an hour with no complaints about being cold. Once back inside and with the jacket off Mya was still very warm.
So, we both think the jacket is a roaring success.
We'll definitely be buying more Wed'ze products in the future.
