Hi folks, can anyone recommend a pair of trousers or bib & braces suitable for summer that won't break the bank?
I heard the preston drifish line is a bit naff, but there isn't a great lot in a similar price range.

I have the Korum bib & brace, worn it for the last 3-4 years in all seasons
got front pockets and double ended zipper, best thing is when you have finished a mucky session it's just a dip and rub in a bucket of hot soapy water then hang em out to dry for the next session.

I have the korum one too, its breathable so perfect in the summer and as darran says very easy to clean

When you say Leon Grant, do you mean the tri-cast range? I've been looking at the drennan ones too. I figured the korum Bib and brace would suffer from the same issues as the preston ones, but might have to have a proper gander.

No good asking me- the wife reckons I look like a tramp when I go fishing!
My general summer trousers are some ski trousers I got from Selby Game Fair for a tenner and I also have some waterproof trousers from Go Outdoors for a tenner.
