Mountain Equipment Morpheus 2008

£200.00

In the Mountain Equipment Morpheus (the women’s version is the Seraph) you get classic Mountain Equipment features like large chest pockets and a great hood with a stiff peak that moves really well with the head.

Mountain Equipment AR Ultralight II tent (2008)

£200.00

It pitches outer-first with two vertical poles supporting the outer, and then the inner is suspended from inside. The wedge-shaped design creates a reasonable amount of space to sit up under the ridge and ...

Mountain Equipment Wet and Dry Kit Bag 70

£70.00

The use of 1000 denier rubberised tarpaulin in this kit bag should have ensured durability, but in our puncture tests the fabric was disappointing. However, the inclusion of an internal compartment for damp or smelly kit keeps your gear fresh. Oversized handles allow the bag to be carried as a rucksack, while a removable shoulder strap is also provided. The ...

Mountain Equipment Dragonfly

£290.00

This two-person tent from Mountain Equipment is as easy to pitch as any you’ll find, taking less than 10 minutes to erect. It’s big, but also very light, so is perfect for summer backpacking. The double-door design is great for keeping the wind out. Perhaps a little narrow at the foot for longer trips.
