Regatta Gravitator (2012)

£65.00

One of the lightest tops out there and good for warmer conditions, with thin fabric and great stretch. A lack of membrane technology, coupled with the relatively open fabric weave, creates great levels of breathability, although at the expense of some windproofing. If the weather turns very cold or windy, you may need to slip a shell over the top. ...

Regatta Adventure Tech 35 (2011)

£50.00

A basic-looking pack with all the usual features you would hope to find on a 35-litre pack, but at a more reasonable price. You get a suspended mesh back system, hydration pack-compatibility, a rain cover and somewhere to store your poles. What does suffer, however, is a little reassurance in the quality stakes. The fabric used does feel noticeably thinner ...

Regatta Alpha Pro VXT 2011

£95.00

Regatta’s new boot for 2011 – the Alpha Pro VXT – marks the first time the brand has used Vibram soles – and they’ve certainly chosen to shout about it with bright yellow panels splashed throughout the rubber. Colour aside, the lugs are suitably deep and widely spaced to give good grip on muddy ground, though the heel breast is ...

Regatta Ghyllbeck

£75.00

Okay for most general walking. They’re never going to set the world alight, but if you’re planning on mostly walking at lower levels then they will be fine. The midsole offers enough flex for them to be comfortable on harder ground, but will lead to fatigue if walking on rough ground for long periods. There is quite a bit of ...

Regatta Lady Apocalypse X-LT

£65.00

Very reasonably priced shoes, the Lady Apocalypse stand out from the crowd with nicely styled soft shell uppers. The use of soft shell fabric means that they’ll offer great breathability, and feel incredibly comfortable too, with a supportive structure that instantly forms to the shape of your foot from the very first wear. They repel water very well too. The ...

Regatta Airbrake

£56.00

The Airbrake doesn’t immediately feel like a standard soft shell, with a face fabric that, although plenty stretchy enough, has a hardness to it and is quite noisy when you move. The shiny surface did give it a little extra waterproofing, at least for the test duration over a few damp, misty mornings, and it also makes it a little ...

Regatta Apocalypse Mid

£70.00

Generous sizing and very soft uppers make the Apocalypse Mid feel comfortable straight from the box, albeit rather like a pair of loose slippers. They’re unique in this selection because the uppers are made from a soft shell fabric. Coupled with a waterproof lining, this helps them stay waterproof, but also makes them feel rather lacking in support. The fairly ...

Regatta Formation X-LT 2011

£70.00

The Regatta Formation X-LT weighs 1044g (pair, size 11); Isotex waterproof lining; suede and mesh upper; stiff, supportive heel cup and toe box; rand on toe for durability; outsole has widely spaced lugs for grip in mud without clogging. But sole is bendy so not ideal on rockier ground; a more pronounced heel breast would improve braking; Isotex less breathable ...

Regatta Masquerade X-LT 2011

£100.00

The Regatta Masquerade X-LT weighs 1424g (pair, size 11); oiled nubuck leather upper with minimal stitching for maximum durability; Isotex waterproof lining; toe box offers decent protection; good cushioning; outsole has reasonably deep and widely spaced lugs for grip in mud. But the sole is quite bendy so this is not ideal on rockier ground; upper is not as supportive ...

Regatta X-Ert 35 Litre

£55.00

A budget bag that aims high with some features you’d only expect on a higher-end pack. Padding is good on the hips although not really long enough to stretch around. Shoulder section is too tight across the neck. The rear zip pocket is plenty big enough, although its opening is way too small. There are also a couple of slender ...

Regatta Descend II

£100.00

A low-priced jacket that uses PU waterproofing, the Descend II handles general wet weather well enough, although it wasn’t tested in any monsoon conditions. It did tend to get fairly warm and a little sweaty after strenuous activity. There are stretch panels, although they don’t seem to be in the right places – across the shoulder as opposed to under ...

Regatta Masquerade X-LT

£90.00

Plenty of padding make the Masquerade feel instantly comfortable, and the fairly roomy fit is best-suited to broader feet. There’s noticeably less heel support than some, but this will suit walkers who go for relaxed comfort above all. The sole provides good shock absorption, suiting them to hard ground, and gripping better on rock than grass. The Isotex lining is ...

Regatta Boundary

£65.00

The Boundary has a really soft fabric, with a great feel that’s more akin to a sweater than a jacket, albeit with a decent amount of stretch. The DWR coating does shed rain, although anything more than the lighter showers we tested it in and we suspect the seams will leak first. Warmth levels are decent with fleece backing providing ...

Regatta Mania 2010

£60.00

The Regatta Mania multi-activity jacket uses Isolite 5000 fabric, which is waterproof and breathable; mesh lining improves comfort; hood rolls into collar; small chest pocket; two hip pockets; reflective printing; pit zips. But 508g (size L) is heavy; lower pocket access is easily obscured with rucksack belts; hood movement and sleeve movement are not as good as in higher-priced options.

Regatta Descend II/Adrianna 2010

The Regatta Descend II/Adrianna general-purpose jacket uses Isotex 10,000 fabric, which provides very waterproof and very breathable performance; mesh lining improves comfort; pit zips; main zip gets external stormflap; two chest pockets remain accessible with rucksack on; removable rollaway hood. But 708g (size L) is heavy; hood movement is very poor; no wired pea

Regatta X-Ert 25L rucksack

£50.00

Quite a big, heavy pack but the X-ert is exceedingly comfortable, courtesy of a well-padded, adjustable harness. It’s well-featured, with useful bellowed side pockets, walking pole attachments, a single pocket in the lid and an easy-to-use single buckle for the main compartment. It has a concealed key pocket and a useful rain cover stowed beneath the main compartment. The back ...

Regatta Lady Formation X-LT

£65.00

A forgiving and slightly sloppy last means these are best-suited to women with wide feet. Unfortunately the lacing system is awkward, making it quite hard to get any support across the forefoot. They’re comfortable from the box, though, with plenty of mesh in the uppers to help your feet breathe. The midsole is very soft, especially across the toes, and ...

Regatta Leonie II

£55.00

A nice-fitting jacket made from Regatta’s waterproof Isolite 5000 fabric. It’s a heavy jacket, but it packs down easily and some will prefer the extra protection offered by the mesh lining. Less breathable than many, but the mesh-lined pockets and underarm zips offer a welcome flow of air and Velcro adjustable cuffs pull up easily to the elbows. Pockets are ...

Regatta Cross Stones JNR 2010

£50.00

The Regatta Cross Stones JNR is a stylish girls’ boot with a reasonable ankle cuff and a waterproof lining. There is a good level of protection at the toe as well. The outsole has a decent pattern of lugs for easier terrain. Use this on forest trails and when sticking to the paths on the fells and it would offer ...

Regatta Lady Formation X-LT 2010

£65.00

The Regatta Lady Formation X-LT weighs 808g (pair, size 5); Isotex waterproof lining; suede and mesh upper; stiffness in toe box protects toes; supportive heel cup; reasonably aggressive outsole lug pattern; good price. But the Isotex waterproof lining is not as breathable as some higher-priced options; a heel breast would add more braking grip on slopes.

Regatta Cross Stones X-LT

£70.00

Light boots that are also low-priced. Very low at the ankle – almost a mid really – and they have negligible midsole support, so are definitely best for lower level walking. The uppers have a large amount of mesh, so will feel cool in the summer but perhaps a bit too cold in spring and autumn, and the Isotex lining ...

Regatta Seistan

£75.00

More waterproof than soft shell and as a waterproof it performs quite well, with a three-layer membrane fabric, taped seams and a very good, adjustable hood. As a soft shell, though, it fails to provide any real insulation, and is nothing like as breathable as some. It’s very adjustable with Velcro cuffs and a drawcord hem, and the hood is ...

Regatta X-Ert 25L

£50.00

A big, bulky pack for 25L, but this makes it excellent when carrying a full and heavy load. The back system is cool and comfortable and in conjunction with double side compression straps, remains stable no matter how full. It’s a well-made pack, with a good range of pockets and there’s plenty of adjustment in the harness. Good rain cover ...

Regatta Fast Track X-LT

£60.00

At first glance £60 seems like a good price for a pair of shoes for walking, and it certainly would be if you only really wanted them for casual use and really easy trails, but the Fast Track has a flimsy midsole that lacks the kind of lateral support needed for rough and rocky trails, and the tread pattern doesn’t ...
