Touchstone are no longer in business!
I have one of their wading jackets and have been most happy with it. I bought mine about 2 years back in a sale at Grafham Water tackle shop.

If you want a wading jacket I know Philip Wright is offering some good deals at the moment. (Nomad UK) You can sometimes reach him on 07716255100.
Cheers,
Alan.

Pity about that, I have two Touchstone jackets A wading & a 3/4 length. They are first class jackets. Why they suddenly went out of business is beyond me.

Highlander, perhaps they just couldn't compete with the cheap imports from China, Korea etc. Had one for years,only gripe would have been with velcro strap on wrist, jacket itself has been first class, great value for money when you look at the price of Simms etc.

Yeah your probably right. Were a UK company Must watch out for the velcro strap you mention. Mine are only used on occasion & are virtually brand new. I am wearing out my other jackets before switching.

PS Did I not read that some Simms are made in China. I saw a label on one once though & I thought I remember it said Made in Canada....go figure
