I had to research Aldi's food standards a couple of years ago and I can say that their food quality is top notch. As for the tools etc you deffo get what you pay for. I'm sure the clothes though are fine as base layers though. Mind you I've used Penny's long johns for years and they are as good as the ski gear from the out door shops. Do nothing for your marriage though if your misses catches you in them! :shock:

As I'm brutal with the cold I always buy a few of these bits as they are excellent and very cheap for the quality you actually get.

From the current batch the Polo neck tops are very warm and comfy and ideal under a fleece, the ski socks are good and cozy too.

I still have a pair of the sallopettes from 2 years ago and again really warm.
