Gill
prides itself on having a brand and products that people can
trust. Moving up a gear from the introduction of its yellow
dot fabric classification system earlier this year, our founder,
Nick Gill, has compiled a no-nonsense, What to Wear Guide, available
right here online, to help you make the right choice when you're
buying marine clothing.
What to Wear covers clothing requirements for every type of boating,
as well as recommendations for individual levels of expertise and
climate considerations. Information is provided on layering, fabrics
and design details, jargon busting the terms breathability, waterproofing
and durability.
Every activity the company undertakes falls within the context of
Gill guiding the enthusiast through the myriad of clothing and fabrics
as well as pricing options now available.
