Hi Kas- i directed Joe this way- he is coming from a country that does not have the seasonal shops such as Aldi etc, and is wanting to either hire jacket and pants for 4- or buy if cheap enough- thought you would have the hire prices for Hunters etc?
cheers

You can always get it delivered to us if that helps with luggage allowance etc. You could then (if you decided not to do snowboarding again) sell it in the resort before you leave as I am sure there would be ...
Hi Joe,

There are shops here in Borovets where you can buy clothing although it is quite expensive as you are buying in a ski resort and there are no 'hire' shops for clothing. It would be worth you looking online and seeing if you can order something from a discount site in advance. You can always get it delivered to us if that helps with luggage allowance etc. You could then (if you decided not to do snowboarding again) sell it in the resort before you leave as I am sure there would be some takers.

Hope that helps & please email me if you need any more help!

I would recommend Surfanic gear. Inexpensive and very good. You can pick it up direct from their website or on ebay. I have few bits from them and they are all superb snd stylish.
