Regatta Geo Mountain Pant

£30.00

These hill-walking trousers weigh just 328g; low price tag; 2-way stretch panels on knee and seat; elasticated waist with belt loops and fly; five pockets (three zipped); drawcord ankle cuff adjustment. But pockets are quite small, even when used as handwarmers; only knee and seat panels are stretch; fabric not as durable as some; no map-sized pockets.

Montane Terra Pants

£70.00

Hard-to-beat walking trousers that perform well in all but the hottest and coolest conditions. The sizing is quite generous, but to fine-tune the fit they’ve got a part-elastic waist and chunky, removable belt. The fabric is soft, supple, very lightweight and water-repellent, and dries really quickly. It also provides some wind protection, and is wonderfully breathable. There are wide, zip-access ...

Meindl Emotion XCR

£80.00

This is a roomy multi-activity shoe from Meindl, but the superb Variofix lacing system helps hold it securely on your foot, making it a pleasure to walk in. It’s well padded, without being over the top, and there’s enough mesh in the uppers to keep feet reasonably cool. However, it’s very low-cut at the ankle, which will suit some, but ...

Sprayway Hydrolite

£80.00

This multi-activity jacket uses two way stretch fabric; removable hood; front zip gets double stormflap; map-sized chest pockets; mesh-lined chest pockets for ventilation; excellent removable hood movement and fit; excellent walking jacket.  But 550g (men‘s size L) is getting heavy for multi-activity like running or biking; you get higher levels of fabric waterproofness and breathability at higher prices.

Keen Targhee Mid

£95.00

A lightweight 3-season boot weighing 1040g (pair, size 11). Very wide, spacious forefoot and toe box; eVent waterproof lining; rubber toe bumper; reasonably stiff sole unit; fairly aggressive sole; low ankle cuff for extra comfort; superb comfort on easy terrain. However, toe box is not stiff and protective; other boots on the market provide more protection and support and they’re ...

Keen Targhee Mid 2008

£95.00

Keen’s rise in popularity has been due to its unique foot profile, which is based on a moulded toe bumper that rises from the sole to protect a very wide and spacious forefoot and toe box. While being best known for their range of sandals and low-cut shoes, Keen also makes the Targhee Mid, a remarkable boot that has become ...

Brasher Hillmaster GTX

£115.00

A little harsh at first, but didn’t need much breaking in. They’re quite narrow, but the internal leather lining is luxurious and very comfortable. Deep-cleated sole unit best-suited to softer going than rock and the mid-flex midsole and lower ankle cuff bore this out, making them less versatile than some. VITAL STATSColour: BrownSizes: 6-14 (UK including half-sizes); Euro’ 39-47Upper: Full-grain ...

Raichle All-Degree Lite GTX

£140.00

The Raichle All-Degree Lite GTX is quite simply among the most comfortable 3/4-season boots you will find – well-padded in all the right places, easy to lace up and very supportive. The fit’s quite broad, and they are also really light. Hard to fault, the All-Degree is light and agile enough to compete with most high- performance three-season boots, yet ...

Vango Ultralight 200

£150.00

This 2-person tent features a very unusual design, yet it has incredible stability and a surprising amount of living space. It is a single-skin that pitches far more easily than it first appears. Once erected the external door gives direct access to the inner living area, as there is no porch. The headroom easily allows two to sit up, and ...

Vango Ultralight 200 tent (2008)

£150.00

ReviewThis ultralight tent is an incredibly stable design and it is also very light as it is only a single-skin  model, but there is a surprising amount of space inside. It pitches very easily too. Once erected, the external door gives direct access to the inner living area, as there is no porch. The headroom easily allows two to sit ...

Berghaus 4 Seasons Trek

£250.00

This winter jacket is made from Gore Pro Shell fabric with the new Micro Grid Backer to provide excellent condensation control, although in this case the lighter green areas have a ripstop fabric to resist tears. The jacket gets a front zip with a double stormflap to keep the worst of driving winter rain out. Very long side vents allow ...

Garmin Oregon 300 2009

£330.00

In-car satnav is now so common that the humble road atlas is more often than not stashed away alongside the spare tyre, the red triangle and the rusty jump leads just in case there’s an emergency. These days a rolling road display with a polite voice instructing the driver when to turn off is how many of us travel the ...
