Kathmandu Monrovia (2012)

£85.00

Put on a Kathmandu jacket and people may assume you’ve just come back from New Zealand, because down under everyone’s wearing this popular Kiwi/Aussie brand. Well, it’s now in the UK! The Monrovia is designed to be lightweight and easy to pack when walking or travelling. The jacket is made from a 2.5-layer fabric with a print on the inside, ...

Osprey Aura 50 (2012)

£120.00

At first glance the Osprey Aura 50 appears to be crammed with clips, straps and attachment loops – and it is! There is an impressive six external pockets and Osprey’s patented Stow on the Go trekking pole attachment system, which allows you to keep your poles slotted to your left side for easy access. This is useful in theory when ...

Mammut Hera Element 40+ (2012)

£125.00

The Mammut Hera Element 40+ (as you might imagine) boasts a capacity of 40+ litres, but accommodates a generous amount of kit with room to spare, so it’s good for trips of several days. The rucksack has two compartments, one of which can be zipped away to create a single space, and large tags on the lower zips are perfect ...

Kathmandu Voltai (2012)

£100.00

As the lightest and cheapest of the rucksacks in our test, compromises have had to be made. In the case of the Kathmandu Voltai it’s that there’s only one back length available and it isn’t adjustable – so it will either fit you or it won’t! Also there is only one main compartment, rather than two found on others, and ...

The North Face Venture (2012)

£110.00

To increase its green credentials, the main fabric in the The North Face Venture uses 50 per cent castor oil rather than 100 per cent petroleum in its membrane, thus reducing its environmental impact. The fabric does not control condensation quite as well as higher-priced jackets, though. The jacket weighs little and packs down into one of its pockets. The ...

Contour Trail (2012)

£90.00

These are really comfortable boots that will feel great straight from the box. The fit is supportive yet easy enough to accommodate a variety of foot shapes. They’ve got a nice contemporary look, with metal lacing eyelets and reassuringly tough fabric. The laces are rather short, though – one to watch if you’ve got wide feet and need more room. ...

Peter Storm Dalmore (2012)

£60.00

These may feel harsh at first because the ankle cuff is quite stiff, but they’ll soon soften up. The fit is wide and forgiving, and while they’re a little short in the toe for the size, they lace up well to provide a fairly secure fit. The ankle cuff is on the low side, while the uppers are quite soft ...

Trezeta Juliette Mid WS (2012)

£100.00

These are the lightest boots in the test at only 470g per foot. The fit is snug for the size – it will especially suit women with narrow feet – and the lacing system easily spreads tension across the foot. The ankle cuff is fairly low, so doesn’t offer much support, and it’s also cut at an odd angle that ...

Marmot Dena Jacket (2012)

£130.00

Not only can you lighten your backpack with the Marmot Dena Jacket (at 325g, size women’s S, it’s the second lightest jacket in our test) but you can also boost your green credentials as the synthetic insulation is made from 100 per cent recycled fabric. Despite its light weight it does keep you relatively warm, and it can pack down ...

Marmot Baffin Half-Zip (2012)

£110.00

This is a kind of hybrid style of jacket that offers more warmth than a fleece with a bit of extra waterproofing thrown in. As a pullover style it won’t be to everyone’s taste, and it isn’t the easiest to take off in a hurry. But the thinking is that you shouldn’t need to take it off so often because ...

Helly Hansen Cross Insulator (2012)

£120.00

A classic mid-layer insulator jacket, in a bit of a 1970s ski jacket style. The synthetic fill allows it to work even in the wet and it’s not too thick so it fits under a shell easily enough. The relatively short cut of the body also helps with mid-layer performance. When used as a mid-layer, it can be a bit ...

Rohan Stravaig 35 (2011)

£85.00

A less-ventilated pack than some, with a channelled back rather than suspended mesh. The benefit of a channelled back system is that it keeps the load very close to your centre of gravity so that even heavy loads feel stable. The obvious downside is that you don’t get the airflow offered by suspended mesh back systems. There’s plenty of padding ...

Lowe Alpine Airzone Centro ND35 (2011)

£100.00

A classic walking pack that’s durable, comfortable, and carries loads with ease. There’s slightly less room in the main compartment than some, but there’s a large expansion pocket on the front (perfect for carrying waterproofs), and a really useful zip pocket for storing kit you want quick access to. The lid pockets are on the small side, though. It’s got ...

Hi-Tec Altitude Ultra Luxe WPi 2011

£100.00

Forgoing a waterproof liner, with the Altitude Ultra Luxe WPi, Hi-Tec instead use an Ion-Mask plasma treatment that makes the fabric repel water. This is a good addition to a leather boot especially as this version features more stitching (potential leak points) than it did when Trail tested it in 2010. The ankle cuff is a good height, being not ...

Jack Wolfskin Crosshike Mid Texapore 2011

£100.00

The first thing I noticed with the Jack Wolfskin Crosshike Mid Texapore was how padded and comfortable it felt when I first put it on – it was like wearing a pair of slippers! The laces are held in place over your foot with fabric lace loops, which helps prevent them digging in at any pressure points; and though the ...

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 ...

Scarpa Ranger GTX

£140.00

These are a classic walking boot, with as little stitching as possible to affect the leather’s natural water repellency. There are only a couple of stitched sections towards the rear of the boot, leaving the front clear of any weak spots. The leather itself feels nice and thick, giving plenty of support all over and good protection for feet. There ...

Trezeta Helvellyn

£100.00

Named after England’s third highest mountain, and they’re probably ideally suited to climbing its well-trodden rocky paths. The minimally stitched full-grain leather upper reduces the chances of them springing a leak. One notable exception to that is on the tongue bellows, where fabric has been used, probably to keep the price down. The use of speedlace hooks makes it much ...

Berghaus Explorer Ridge

£125.00

This is more of a two-season boot and as a result is a bit softer than many of the others on test. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, and straight out of the box, the softer flex and ample inside padding make them incredibly comfortable. They sit quite low down and so offer a good amount of feedback from the ...

Brasher Hillwalker

£105.00

The Hillwalkers have a fit well-suited to those with larger volume feet. The design is also classic walking boot, with lots of unstitched leather on the uppers. Shock absorption is great, with plenty of bounce in the sole which really helps when walking on stony ground and stretches of road. The grip from the sole is good enough and provides ...

Hi-Tec Altitude Glide WP

£65.00

Very lightweight walking boots made from full-grain leather. Because they’ve got a low ankle cuff and very forgiving fit, they will especially suit walkers with wide or problem feet. These boots don’t have a waterproof lining – instead the fabric has been treated with ion-mask waterproof technology. This helps keep them lightweight, and also does a great job of keeping ...

Dare 2B Restrain

£50.00

The stretchiest trousers out there by a country mile – stretchy in an elastic band way. This stretchiness really adds an extra level of comfort when walking over boulders or climbing. The fabric is lightweight and as quick-drying as the majority of similar fabrics. The trousers are cut a little wider in the lower leg than some, however, and there ...

Rohan Trailblazers

£75.00

A great pair of trousers for the walker looking for something a bit more technical, without looking overly technical. Stretchy fabric works really well at boosting comfort levels and there is enough wind resistance in them to keep out hilltop breezes, or at least reduce their impact. That wind-blocking also helps them to work effectively over a range of temperatures ...

Vaude Farley III

£70.00

A classic pair of trousers built with an eye towards travelling, thanks to their built-in sun protection and mosquito repellent. There is no stretch in the fabric, although the cut is suitably generous to negate this. The fabric itself is fairly lightweight too, aiming them at the summer walker. They aren’t a true convertible trouser but you can roll the ...

Vaude Jura 24

£60.00

The Vaude is a smart, traditional-looking pack, with a single-buckle lid closure and a cavernous main compartment. Kit separation is simple, with a large pocket on the lid and expansion pockets on each side – ideal for hats, gloves, snacks and water bottles. Features are kept to a minimum, although it has got two walking pole attachments and a rain ...
