This might be a bit off a bizare question!!! Its for the SAR winch ops and winchmen what are those red trousers with the black Reinforced knees and silver trim around the angles? are they goretex or nomex. who makes them as we require an alterntive flying suits. or Am i just making myself look a complete C"*T.

Sorry to disappoint you but you've got it all wrong... I think you saw them wearing their going home trousers. :E

Shot from the hip a bit too quick this time, Pont. The SAR boy's red kit is mountain kit- ie, Goretex.

The SAR Gore-tex gear (jackets and salopets) is made by Slioch and is standard issue for SAR rearcrew and military MRTs.
