Tramperman

Just thought you should see just how ridiculous I sometimes looked going up mountains in New Zealand. Here Tramperman makes an appearance in Peckham with his friend Batman. In the Kiwi backcountry, such an outfit barely raises an eyebrow. The emphasis is on practical clothing, which keeps you warm and dry. So cotton is eschewed in favour of polypropylene and merino wool products. And sometimes wool mixed with possum fur, which is hollow and therefore a great insulator. However, it still amuses most Poms to find themselves running around in tights and short shorts rarely seen since Kevin Keegan was performing on Britain's football pitches.
