buttoned or spring sides, namely, that in heavy wet, or soaking turnips, the 

 water at last gets in between the interstices. In Mr. PENNELL'S gaiter there 

 are no buttons or springs, and consequently no interstices, their place being 

 occupied by a waterproof seam. The modus operandi by which, incidentally, 

 all the bother of buttoning and unbuttoning is got rid of is simply a reversing 

 of the ordinary sequence : the gaiter is put on first and the boot afterwards. 

 The absence of buttons should commend itself to anglers, especially trollers. 

 The price is the same as ordinary leggings." Bell's Life, 3Oth April, 1884. 



" This legging is made on a very good and very simple principle. . . 

 There are no buttons or springs to fasten up. . . You have only to pull it on 

 and tighten a strap at top and bottom. For either fishing or shooting it will 

 be found to save time and trouble and give much comfort. " Fishing Gazette^

SANS BOUTON" SHOOTING AND FISHING LEGGINGS. 



" The ' Pennell Sans Bouton Shooting and Fishing Leggings ' (registered), 

 an invention of Mr. CHOLMONDELEY-PENNELL, are amongst the novelties 

 attracting notice at the Sportsman's Exhibition. By this very simple and 

 practical invention the labour of putting on and off of leggings is reduced to a 

 minimum, there being only one button at the bottom and one strap at the top 

 to fasten. The sides of the leggings are represented by a waterproof seam, so 

 that the sportsman walking in wet turnips or long grass will keep his legs and 

 feet dry instead of getting them wet through between the interstices of the 

 buttons and button holes, as in the case of the ordinary leggings. We commend 

 this very simple and useful invention to the notice of our readers." Land and 

 Water ; 22nd March, 1884. 



Th e leggings are made either in leather, flax or canvas.
