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 ...

Patagonia Torrentshell Parka

£140.00

A lighter weight, and therefore more reasonably priced jacket here. Although lighter, the face fabric does have Ripstop properties to boost resilience, and it coped well enough with a few scrapes and bumps. The lower price point also means that there is no membrane waterproofing. Instead the H2No coating does the breathable/waterproof job, and as a result it can get ...

Rohan Cloudcover

£145.00

A roomy and comfortable jacket that’s cut long to keep your hips dry, although the arms are rather short. It’s quite a smart-looking jacket, made from soft polyester fabric that’s easy to move around in. There’s plenty of space in the hood to bury your head into, with adjustment at the side and back and a large stiffened peak. You ...

Dare2B Trilight

£70.00

A fairly lightweight jacket that’s long enough to cover the hips. It’s nicely styled for walking in, with fabric that flexes easily and arms that don’t ride up when you reach forward. Disappointingly, the hood is rather small, and won’t keep your face dry in heavy rain. However, elastic adjusters at the sides and back allow you to cinch it ...

Peter Storm Trail

£75.00

A comfortable jacket with a long hem that covers the hips easily. It has got a decent-sized hood – great if you’ve got long hair – with baffle adjustment at the sides and back. You can also roll it away in the collar if you want a smarter look. It’s made from Peter Storm’s Stormshield fabric, which is waterproof and ...

Peter Storm Skiddaw II

£65.00

Very soft, full-grain leather boots that will only really suit women with wide feet as they are very wide across the toes. They’ve got a soft yet supportive ankle cuff, and although the tongue may feel harsh at first, it soon softens with wear. Disappointingly, the lacing system is a bit fiddly, making it difficult to get enough tension across ...

Craghoppers Endurance Lite

£78.00

Quite heavy at 350g, and the Endurance Lite fabric is also very noisy to walk in, with an old-school plastic mac feel. It keeps rain out, although the fabric doesn’t breathe well, so watch out for condensation build up on the inside. However, it’s got a great storm flap, with a wide strip of fabric covering the main zip, secured ...

Tog24 Halo

£75.00

The Halo is rather heavy for a lightweight waterproof, but very reasonably priced at £75. Most of the added weight comes from the heavy nylon fabric, which is lined with polyester throughout to help it breathe. It does a good job of keeping out a shower, but will wet-out eventually so it’s not ideal for long, rainy days in the ...

GoSystem Apollo Ti 2011

£100.00

The GoSystem Apollo Ti weighs 194g (+ gas); boil time 2min 55sec to 6min 15sec; 12cm diameter pan supports ideal for bigger pans. But best boil time only available with fresh gas canister; elaborate folding design does not seem to offer benefit over lower-priced stoves with wider supports and lower profile.

MSR Miox Purifier 2011

£135.00

The MSR Miox Purifier is a very compact and lightweight system that applies an electric current to a small portion of rock salt solution, that’s in turn added to the water requiring purification. To operate the system, fit two lithium batteries into the red purifier unit, fill the salt chamber with rock salt (supplied) and add a few drops of ...

Snugpak Elite Proximity

£70.00

Relatively new to the world of outdoor clothing, this is a brand new model for Snugpak. It’s a fairly standard looking jacket and the cut isn’t quite so athletic as some tested, so you could wear it to the pub – if you’re the sort of person happy to sup a pint in an orange jacket. The brushed, slightly fleecy ...

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 ...

Hi-Tec V-Lite Sonoma WPi

£90.00

The Sonoma were a little stiffer than anticipated when first on, with an oddly rigid tongue, but after a short distance they softened up. The front of the sole is particularly flexible, allowing a natural foot flex and a pleasant gait, and the midsole still provides enough support. Good levels of shock absorption do make a difference on road sections ...

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 ...

Columbia Shastalavista 2011

£75.00

The Columbia Shastalavista weighs 984g (pair, size 11); mesh upper for exceptional breathability; great sole unit with good lugs for mud; good cushioning; good stiffness for general walking; good for dry travel. But no waterproof lining; not the best shoe for running as a little too ‘clumpy’; mesh upper not so durable for rockier ground.

Teva Churn 2011

£67.00

The Teva Churn weighs 584g (pair, size 9); mesh upper and drainage holes allow water out easily; very low-profile, stable platform; well-cushioned; fold-down heel converts shoe to a slide-on shoe; perfect for use in watersports. But away from water has very limited use; sole lugs very shallow so only good in water; upper allows water in easily.

Helly Hansen Trackfinder 2011

£71.00

The Helly Hansen Trackfinder weighs 828g (pair, size 11); extremely breathable mesh upper; sole has good, deep lugs for grip in mud; good stiffness in sole for paths; good cushioning. But toe box offers very little protection; no waterproof lining limits use of shoe; once water enters it cannot easily escape as no drainage ports near base of sides.

Rohan Lapka Tech 2011

£125.00

The Rohan Lapka Tech weighs 1416g (pair, size 11); synthetic and suede upper; Barricade waterproof lining; very aggressive Vibram outsole lug pattern for mud; good sole stiffness for rocky ground; solid toe box for protection. But boots with less mesh and stitching will be more durable; this is the Brasher Lithium rebranded, so it may suffer from the same durability ...

The Timberland Belknap Mid F/L GTX weighs 1160g (pair, size 11); up to size 14; synthetic upper with Gore-Tex waterproof lining; leather overlays for durability; firm toe box protects feet on rockier ground; reasonably deep lugs for a good grip in mud. But very soft sole flex detracts from performance on rockier ground; upper is quite soft and may not ...

The Anatom V3 weighs 1524g (pair, size 11); suede leather and synthetic upper; Tri.aria waterproof lining; Vibram sole unit with good, deep lugs for grip and wide spacing to prevent clogging. But sole unit is surprisingly bendy, limiting performance on rockier ground; boots with less stitching may be more durable; lambswool footbed is not as comfy as standard footbeds; toe ...

Millet Beyond 1200 2011

£120.00

The Millet Beyond 1200 is the lightest bag on test, and it packs down fantastically small. Apart from the threads, elastic and zip, it’s all made out of fully recycled materials and so will appeal to anyone looking to reduce their environmental impact when buying a sleeping bag. In terms of fit, the bag is cut quite close for increased ...

Golite RS3 Mummy Sleeping Bag 2011

£125.00

The Golite RS3 Mummy Sleeping Bag is another bag made from largely recycled content, resulting in an 80 per cent reduction in energy use and greenhouse gases compared to normal manufacturing techniques. It’s a well-tapered fit and sports a three-quarter-length zip to save weight. You also get a decent baffle to protect that zip from cold spots. Inside, the bag ...

Lifeventure Sleeplight 1800 2011

£90.00

The Lifeventure Sleeplight 1800 is a sleeping bag designed with an emphasis on travel, so you get something called an EX3 coating against bedbugs, mosquitoes and odour build-up. The full-length zip that runs around the feet means it’s very versatile for warmer nights or milder climates, and you can open it out to make it into a duvet. It also ...

Columbia Mobex Winter Omni Heat

£90.00

A most unique-looking pack. A geodesic dome-style of pole construction helps keep the weight down whilst retaining its shape well, making it easy to load. It certainly is light, and when lightly packed, it flexes well and sits pleasantly in the small of your back. Unfortunately the lack of a proper back system makes it very sweaty, while the zip ...

Lowe Alpine Polar 2011

£120.00

The Lowe Alpine Polar has a recycled polyester outer; 650 fill power 80/20 down; two zipped hip pockets; zipped internal pocket. But 810g (men’s XL) is heavy; no hood; not as warm as others; no adjustment at cuffs.
