A fair few years ago I stumbled onto the Roaster, a rashie with super good thermal linings that worked perfectly to cut the wind chill

It was made in WA by a guy named Ian, does anyone know if he still makes them and where I could get one from please

I think Ian owned or worked in a surf/sail shop

Thanks all

Brownie, do you mean the windwarrior rashie?
I had one for a few years until I wore it out. Was the best item I had purchased and suited exceptionally well.
Had a lining inside that kept me very warm.
I don't think these are available any longer, and the lad who sold these was Kev. Cant recall has seabreeze name however .

No the Roaster. They were very warm.

I think they're unavailable now, but the thicker polypropylene fleece rashies would do the same thing I guess (?)

I've got one! Had it for years still like new!
Happy to say still fit in it! Awesome product makes all the difference in winter....

I'm sure it came from WA and I have a grey blury memory that Scott Mc may have something to do with it? Or family member?

I've just ordered one of these on eBay....$45 including postage.....thanks for the idea people. Looks good to me and hopefully the red one will stop me burning and freezing and getting lost all at the same time!
By the way.. I'm not suggesting that this product is necessarily any good but I sure am hoping it is.

Yeah Clarkee, that's the guy

Shame he no longer makes them as they were the bomb

JonesySail hopefully Scott Mc might have been involved and could make some more

These are like gold for keeping the cold out, never had anything as good as a roaster....

Thanks for the replies guys
