Seeland LED Light Cap

I was sent this cap to review a couple of years ago, and from the start I loved it, well, for the short time I had it that is, because as usual, it turned out to be yet another useful gadget that Muddy Madam decided to steal.

It's a traditional styled peak cap, but with a difference, and the difference is that it has small LED diodes hidden in the front edge of ….

Wigwam's Cypress Trail Socks

These socks are predominately made from cotton which for me, the Muddy Madam, is a godsend. I have a big problem finding walking socks as most of them contain a good proportion of wool.

Tilley Outback Hat

As you may have noticed, if you’re a keen follower of The Mud Life reviews, sometimes we go a little crazy over new pieces of kit, and other times we like to give credit where credit’s due and re-review old products, simply because of their longevity and general reliability.

Today I’m singing the praises of my old Tilley Outback hat. It really is a testament to how good Tilley wear is, that after 6 years of near constant use, it still……

Eskeez Thermal Base Layers

Back in the days when I was a Bouncer, during the harsh northern winter months we’d all wear some sort of thermal base-layer. We had to, stood outside ‘bouncing’ up and down wasn’t good for our street cred’. Our choices back then were limited, unlike now of course, now I’d be wearing a brilliant Eskeez Thermal base layer…..
