£150- £299 | translate:/Global/SiteRating: 5 | 2-2.99kg

Shared lightweight tents require compromise. If you want light weight you have to expect less space for two. If you want headroom then you’re going to have to lug more weight. If you want both, expect a heavy dent in your finances. But then along comes the Wild Country Aspect 2, which at just £150 offers a spacious sleeping area, ...

Scarpa Manta 2009

£220.00

Last year the Scarpa Manta 4-season boot had the GSB crampon system, but sadly the system has not become popular enough to warrant its continuity, so on the Manta it is now a feature that can be logged as that great idea that got away! The remainder of the Manta is classic performance-orientated design though. The boot sits lower to ...

£155.00

The Zamberlan Mountain Lite is a 3-4 season boot that incorporates the classic features that have been popular for British mountain walking for many years.

I had to select one of these six carriers for a walking trip to France, and it came down to a choice between the Macpac and the superbly comfortable Kelty Kids Adventure. But as we ...

Vango TBS Spirit 200 Lite

£200.00

For camping and backpacking in the UK this 2-person backpacking tent offers most of the features that most walkers will want. The Vango TBS Spirit 200 Lite is based around the well-established 2-pole tunnel design, which is renowned for being spacious, reasonably stable and lightweight; however a geodesic design would be more stable. But you also get the Tension Band ...

Scarpa New Manta

£165.00

Trail’s favourite 4-season boot for many years, last year this gained an articulated ankle cuff. In use this means the ankle cuff is so much more comfortable than before when walking. The ankle cuff is slightly lower than many winter boots to allow a more natural walking action. The rest of the boot is classic Manta with a one-piece leather ...
