Robens Down Lite 700 (2012)

£160.00

Robens’ wide range of kit includes this very competitively priced down bag with a temperature rating of -9 deg C. Down insulation is more efficient than synthetic, which is why the Robens Down Lite 700 is lighter than similar-priced synthetic bags. The side zip extends to 30cm from the foot, so you can keep your feet warm while venting your ...

Jack Wolfskin Mountain Sunrise (2012)

£260.00

While down is more efficient than synthetic insulation, it suffers more if it becomes damp (from condensation in a tent for example). To reduce the chances of moisture affecting the down, the Jack Wolfskin Mountain Sunrise has a waterproof shell at the toe and head, the two areas most likely to get wet when camping. This does increase the weight ...

Rab Ascent 500 (2012)

£200.00

The Rab Ascent 500 has been restyled for 2012 and comes with a good stuffsack that allows it to be compressed smartly for easy packing into a rucksack. The bag feels like it can easily cope with its -5 deg C temperature rating. The foot of the bag is particularly spacious for increased comfort, and the side zip ends about ...

Mountain Equipment Xero 550 (2012)

£300.00

The Mountain Equipment Xero 550 is a very popular bag for backpackers thanks to its good weight and packed size, coupled with a good temperature rating. There is an EXL elasticated lining, which provides a closer fit than most bags without restricting movement – and this system makes the bag feel a little warmer than others. The bag does not ...

Mammut Ajungilak Kompakt 3 Season (2012)

£150.00

The Ajungilak Kompakt is an extremely well-established classic synthetic 3-season sleeping bag. At 1850g it is heavier than equivalent down bags, but as it’s filled with a good-quality synthetic insulation it feels slightly warmer than other bags of similar temperature ratings. The bag’s stuffsack comes with compression straps so it can be cranked down to a respectable size. The bag ...

Alpkit Pipedream 400 (2012)

£150.00

Alpkit is well-known for producing great kit at great prices, sold via its online store. The Pipedream 400 is an extremely popular down bag, thanks to its price and weight. It’s not quite as warm as some other bags here though and it does not get some of the extra bonus features, such as a more water-resistant shell. But it ...

Ortlieb Duffel Bag 60 (2012)

£140.00

The Ortlieb Duffel Bag is an inventively designed waterproof duffel that comes in 85 litre and 110 litre versions, but the 60 litre example should be big enough for the average hillwalker. The main benefit of the waterproof construction is that it can be used for kayaking expeditions – particularly popular on the west coast of Scotland – and could ...

Vango Cargo 65 (2012)

£38.00

Although the Vango Cargo 65 is the most affordable duffel in the line-up it’s not short of features. Its simple design comes with two solid grab handles at each end, two mid handles with a clasp and – most inventively – two stowable shoulder straps that allow you to carry the bag in the style of a rucksack. It’s nowhere ...

Berghaus Mule 40+20 (2012)

£60.00

The Berghaus Mule 40+20 Expandable Kit Bag is the least technical-looking of the bags on test, yet it is able to expand in capacity by 20 litres, making it a particularly versatile choice. It could comfortably function as a hillwalking tool or as a general-purpose bag for travel, gym clothes or work use. The Ardura fabric construction is more supple ...

Lowe Alpine Travel Trekker II 70 (2012)

£170.00

While the other duffels in this test are relatively straightforward affairs, this multi-function bag is a combined rucksack / carryall with enough hidden compartments, nets and storage spaces to house Jason Bourne’s passport collection. This versatility – combined with a total 70 litres of space available – makes the Lowe Alpine Travel Trekker II 70 a viable option for a ...

The North Face Base Camp Duffel M (2012)

£90.00

The North Face Base Camp Duffel is one of the most established models on the market, and it has long been regarded as an industry standard product. It offers many of the same features displayed on the Vango Cargo, but with a tougher, sturdier design that is reflected in the price tag. The ballistic nylon construction – reinforced by double ...

Lifeventure Expedition Duffel 120 (2012)

£50.00

The Lifeventure Expedition Duffel 120 is a wheeled duffel that’s new for 2012, although 70 litre and 100 litre non-wheeled versions are already established on the market. The wheels are treaded and rugged enough to deal with more than just smooth airport flooring, while the base is reinforced to prevent damage to the underside while it is in motion. There ...
