I've got a vail - it's logo free thankfully, in brown as I'm doing detail! It's good, kept it's shape in a year of use and washing, no holes, no complaints. I'd consider another, but don't want to be an 'A' board for Howies.

i have a few, bought in the sales (inc. the singletrack ones) and they are ace. They are really comfy in cold and hot weather.

I wouldnt pay £50 for them though, and especially not with the blooming great Howies logo across the front.

love the tomproof jeans, but they only do them in reg, no long leg.

Got a a Vail T from ages ago ~2006, still in good condition, works well. Dunno if the new one is as good as the old one.

ok it's pricey, but at the time I was a bit of a fanboi, I still like howies, but can't afford it so easily now & there are more options for similar items

They seem to hold up well compared to other merino I own, I wpould buy another if I needed to - in the sale again probably though! I can't remember what I paid but it was a bit less than mrp.
