Trekmates Stainless Steel Vacuum Flask

£8.00

The stylish, coloured finish adds extra grip when handling this flask, while the simple screw-top design is easy to use and will not easily clog. The cup also gets a good plastic lining that extends around the lip to prevent burns. But others provided better insulation for the drinks, and there are no instructions to advise on cleaning or preheating. ...

Outdoor Designs Boojum Bladder 2 litre

£10.00

This hydration system is made from a double layer of PU and crackproof-tested down to -20 deg C. The screw cap is compatible with Nalgene water bottles and therefore also many water purification systems. The large cog grip screw cap can be easily opened wearing gloves too. The system did not leak and the water tasted okay, although it wasn’t ...

Thorlo KX Hiking

£10.00

Gripped the foot well and didn’t ruck when pulling on boots. Slightly rougher material than some, but no problems in action. With heavier padding and thicker fibres than most, these were very warm but dealt with sweat well and provided plenty of protection.Contact: 01539 740840, www.thorlo.com

Keen Boulder Canyon

£12.00

A superbly soft and comfortable sock with specific left and right fit and good grip. Less padded than most. The high wool content dealt well with sweat and meant little odour, but perhaps a little lightweight for cooler weather/tougher walking.Contact: 01572 772500, www.keeneurope.eu

X Socks Hill Walking Short

£12.50

With dedicated left and right and a very ‘elastic’ feel, these held their position perfectly. One of the warmer socks tested with good padding underfoot but may be too much insulation on the shin and ankle for some. Contact: 01250 873863, www.x-socks.com

Wigwam Merino Comfort Hiker*

£13.00

Superbly soft against the skin but not as elasticated as some, so care is needed when pulling boots on. The high wool content dealt well with sweat and remained fairly odour-free – a big bonus. Thicker and warmer than most. Contact: 01462 685890, www.wigwam.com

Extremeties Hiker

£13.00

These have a high wool content, lovely soft feel and there was no slip or rucking at all. Thick, warm socks, which will suit some but not all. Great moisture management and no smell problems. They lose out on versatility for warmer weather use. Contact: 01773 837373, www.terra-nova.co.uk

Alpkit Gamma 2010

£15.00

Alpkit is well-known for providing incredible value for money, and so it is perhaps no surprise that the Gamma’s performance matches that of many headtorches costing twice the price. You get a battery pack at the back of the head and the red LED is fitted here. This can be set on strobe or as a red light. The front ...

Blacks Night Vision LED Headtorch 2010

£15.00

The Blacks Night Vision LED Headtorch weighs 34g; 1 x LED; 1 x red diffuser for night vision; 2 x CR2032 batteries; swivel head; one power mode plus strobe. But very limited information provided; single power setting limits efficiency of battery use.

Gelert Ascent

£15.00

These Gelert Ascent trekking poles have only two sections, which makes for a longer (more bulky) pack-down size. But this also means they’re less prone to slipping than some. With a comfortable handle and reasonable weight, this is a bargain pole for all but the very serious hillwalker. Two-section design makes them easier to adjust and tighten. Adequate performance and ...

Jack Wolfskin Thermo Bottle

£16.00

A rubberised coating provides a more secure grip than most others. Better still the insulating properties are good. You get a press-button closure plus a cup. But others offer better insulating performance for their weight and not everyone is a fan of button-operated pourers, as they tend to clog. Capacity: 1000mlMaterials: stainless steel flask and cup, plastic stopper Sizes ...

REGATTA X-ERT PERFORMANCE BASE ZIP-NECK

£16.00

Review: The fabric is soft and has enough stretch to make movement easy. Lovely snug collar, too. As a base-layer it feels soft and warm and copes well with moisture, and it looked good on its own, too. Some odour retention, but not too bad.

Vango Anti-shock Walker

£17.00

Vango’s Anti-shock Walker is a bargain pole offering great value for money. The alloy design is quite heavy, though, and the nifty little compasses in the handles don’t always work. Even so, they’re nice poles, with all the essential features and at a reasonable price. Adequate performance on the hill.

Source Widepac hydration system

£17.00

This Source Widepac hydration system opens at the top, making it easy to fill and clean, and closes securely with an excellent, easy-to-use slider. Nice detachable hose, too. This Source Widepac delivers big gulps of taste-free water and the cap on the mouthpiece keeps it clean. Needs a shut-off valve for full marks.Contact: 015395 60214, www.bramwell-int.com

The Ring CybaLite Duo weighs 53g; 1x white LED, 1x red LED for night vision; power output 26 lumens; compact unit; uses 1 x AA battery; similar design as Kathmandu Coupled 0.5W but with a lower price. But white light has only one setting; only 6.5 hours of white light output; head tilt mechanism not very secure.

Lifeventure TIV Vacuum Flask

£17.00

This flask comes in a metal case, while its black, grippy, anodised coating makes it almost too sexy to use! Inside there is a copper coating to improve insulation. Performance was okay and you get clear instructions. But the plastic lining of the cup does not extend as far as some around the lip to prevent burns. The screw-top pourer ...

Peter Storm Micro Half-Zip

£18.00

Baggy plain fleece cuffs let down an otherwise nicely-fitting top that boasts a superb snug, high collar and a good-length hem. The fabric feels warm and soft against the skin. A warm top that works well both as a mid-layer and base-layer. The zip is a useful length, making it easy enough to get on and off and aiding ventilation.VITAL ...

Result Performance R155J Junior 2009

£18.00

The Result Performance R155J Junior is half the price of many of the children’s jackets in this review. Bargain! It comes in at a very respectable weight too and packs down small so you won’t mind carrying it for your children during dry spells. Reflective piping wraps around the whole jacket at waist level so it is easily picked out ...

Peter Storm Ailsa Micro Two Tone

£18.00

This Ailsa Micro Two Tone fleece from Peter Storm is comfortable and cosy, with a tapered fit and flattering side panels. One nice touch is the fleece tab at the top of the zip, which prevents chafing on your chin. There’s a good size range and although this is one of the lightest on the market, it’s well-insulated and won’t ...

Greenheat Base Camp Stove

£19.00

This stove weighs 570g; boil time 12 min to 14 min; simple to use; fuel doesn’t spill if knocked over; fuel is green gel made from sugar cane so more environmentally friendly than most; refills cost just £3.50; 10cm diameter pan supports. But best boil was only slightly more than a simmer; slow boil time.
