  1. Thinking of an expensive windproof fleecy thing like a buffalo shirt,
    and wondering if wearing a rucksack over it would squash the fleecy
    stuff in a fashion permanently damaging to its properties?

    I've used this combination for four years and had no problems at all with
    the fleecy stuff in the Buffalo shirt.

    All the best

    I've had a Buffalo for the best part of ten years. It doesn't get much use
    now, as the elbows and cuffs are a little grubby, but it survived periods of
    hard, daily use both on the hills, caving, landscape gardening,
    archaeological excavation, etc. etc.

    There are the odd worn patches in the "fleecy stuff" but it's survival is
    incredible, really. It must be the oldest, most used bit of kit I have.

    Now I tend to wear a lightweight Gortex and have a down jacket in my
    rucksack ... perhaps I've started feeling the cold?

    Cheers
