Lowe Alpine Nanon ND 50:60 (2012)

With two stretchy side panels and adjustable straps to make it go even further, it’s the perfect space to cram your ...

A classic walking pack that’s durable, comfortable, and carries loads with ease.

Lowe Alpine Airzone ND32

£65.00

Although designed for women, it is best-suited to more petite ladies, with its shorter back and overall shape. The shoulder straps are a lot thinner than those on the men’s variant and can dig in when the pack is loaded. The hip straps are great, with the split design helping to grip. The back system is excellent, with its light ...

£140.00

A nicely styled jacket made from Lowe Alpine’s own Triplepoint XC fabric. The fairly roomy cut covers the hips easily and there’s a high collar to bury your face into in bad weather.

A classic soft shell, the Omni Lite delivers top-class performance in a stripped-back design.

Lowe Alpine Atacama Pant

A good-looking midweight pant that offers excellent value for money. The fabric feels soft against the skin, but although it dries quickly, it doesn’t resist a shower as well as some.

The Sierra Lite does an excellent job of keeping wind and mild rain off, while providing some insulation and great breathability.
