MSR E-Wing 2011

It’s essentially just a large fabric sheet with the only detailing on the main body being ...

Berghaus Snowdonia 2.1 2010

£130.00

I’m not sure what has surprised me most here – the fact that Berghaus has designed its first ever tents, or that they are being made under licence by the Blacks Leisure Group and will only be available in the UK from Blacks and Millets stores. Either way, what is most important is how the products perform.The Berghaus Snowdonia 2.1 ...

Aztec Esquina

£130.00

This extremely stable semi-geodesic tent from Aztec, which is light to carry, pitches really easily (inside and outside together) and has just about enough room for two for shorter backpacking trips. Good ventilation, courtesy of mesh panels and two-way zips, and well built. Looks good, too.
