Pure Hydration Aquasak Inline Filter 2011

£40.00

Many walkers use a hydration bladder stashed in a rucksack with a feeder pipe that they drink from while on the move. You could just filter the water before putting it into the bladder, but a more practical alternative is to fit this inline filter to the bladder’s feedpipe so the water is filtered as you suck it through the ...

Drinksafe Systems Waterstraw 2011

£20.00

The Drinksafe Systems Waterstraw is about as simple and light and low-priced as it gets. It’s a water straw by name and by nature: all you have to do is remove the caps from each end, place one end in the liquid and suck through the filter at the other. When you’ve quenched your thirst, just shake the Waterstraw dry ...

Eurohike Compact X

£40.00

The Compact X is one of the most compact poles out there, with its four-section design, but this does mean it is also heavy. The poles are pleasantly sturdy in use, considering the price, and you can buy them individually if you want a low-cost trial or need to replace a damaged pole. But the grips are disappointing, made from ...

Raidlight Never Dry Reservoir 2010

£26.00

French company Raidlight concentrates on the ‘fast and light’ end of the market, and this is a hydration system with some interesting features. There’s insulation for the hose to prevent liquids from freezing in the tube, or overheating in the sun. There’s also a small valve at the top so that the bladder can be inverted and drip-dried. The hose ...

Eurohike Compact

£40.00

With four sections, the Compacts have a shorter than average pack-down size, which makes them ideal for carrying and travelling; although perhaps the best hasn’t been made of this as they still only extend to 125cm – one of the shortest tested. They have hard plastic grips and narrow webbing straps that are adjusted with a ladder-lock buckle, so not ...

Highlander Himalayan Trek 2010

£48.00

The Highlander Himalayan Trek has some carbon fibre in the shaft material, which reduces the weight of this pole to a very respectable 516g per pair. Packed length is good too at just 57cm. The foam handle is well-contoured with an extension down the shaft, which makes this a very comfortable pole to grip on a variety of terrain. There ...

Blacks Compact Pole 2010

£40.00

Forty pounds is a very low price for a pair of poles. But it is even more noteworthy when you realise that these poles also include anti-shock springs inside to take the impact out of placing the tips firmly down onto rocky surfaces. This is a longer pole than many too, so it’s better for those who are taller than ...

Vango Deluxe Cork Anti-Shock 2010

£38.00

Vango set the standard for making products with remarkable performance at low prices. Their Deluxe Cork Anti-Shock are typical of the brand as they offer most of what most people want at a price that most people are prepared to pay. The pole has anti-shock built in and the handles are cork – and these two features alone are impressive ...

Craghoppers Travel Compact Pole 2010

£30.00

At just 344g for a pair the Craghoppers Travel Compact Pole is very lightweight. Its walking stick-style handle may be preferred by some people but the handle can also be used in a conventional trekking pole way as it has a vertical cork grip too. There is also a webbing wrist loop on the handle. The pole has three sections ...

Coleman Exponent Mini Headlamp 2010

£20.00

The Coleman Exponent Mini Headlamp weighs 40g; 1x LED; swivel head; compact.But the battery case opens far too easy by accident; 1xCR2 battery rather than more popular AA; short battery life of only 7 hours; very little information supplied compared with other headtorches so we cannot supply Lumens value of output.

GELERT ADVENTURE TREKKING WALKING POLE

£25.00

Review: A really comfy rubber grip, let down by very narrow webbing straps. The poles also have a section of foam that extends down the shaft slightly but this isn’t held in position so can move up and down if you pull on it heavily. The aluminium shaft proved strong, but is quite heavy. The twistlock adjusters worked well, but ...

Peter Storm Stormtech Gaiters

£15.00

A bit tight over the boot, making it very hard to engage the front hook. A good length and weight, though, and easy to adjust. Light and waterproof and, once on, barely noticeable. Less breathable than some and the webbing underfoot straps may need replacing regularly. Contact: 0800 389 5861, www.millets.co.uk

Berghaus Form Gaiters

£30.00

Rather baggy in the leg and also very high, and while the adjustment worked well at the foot, the cuff strap wasn’t as efficient as a drawcord. The unusual side zip design made them easy to zip up, but the lace tab at the front was fiddly. Effective once secured. Contact: 0191 516 5700, www.berghaus.com

Trekmates Flexi Tanker hydration system

£11.00

This Trekmates Flexi Tanker hydration system has just a tiny screw cap opening, making it awkward to fill and almost impossible to clean. The Trekmates Flexi Tanker is a solid reservoir that’s easy to handle and the water it delivers is taste-free. Bite valve gives a slow flow rate, but does have an on/off tap.Contact: 0115 940 9170, www.trekmates.co.uk
