Sad news, great store. I will be watching what comes up on sale very closely.

I spent some time in their Aberdeen store when I was over there three years ago. Prices were good and I was treated like a celebrity. I think I had three or four assistants dealing with me.

Yup, every time I go home Hein Gericke in Newcastle was a must visit, good prices, good gear, huge selection. My jacket is still mint after 6 years use.

Do you look like Billy Connolly?

Noooooooo

But then, my two HG textile suits seem to be lasting forever so I probably wouldn't have shopped there again...
