This new version holds true to the heritage of this boot by having a good stiff sole with an aggressive lug pattern, so you can kick the edges into the snow or crunch through scree with stability and comfort. But now you ...

Meindl Air Revolution Lite

£169.00

These Meindl boots fall into the stiffer, more robust category of fabric footwear, attempting to be a viable three-season boot. They have a really stiff sole and they did feel heavy on the foot – a sense exacerbated by their stiffness. The tread pattern has very deep lugs that really improve grip in grimy fields and on hillsides. There is ...

Asolo PowerMatic 200 2009

£150.00

The Asolo PowerMatic 200 weighs 1864g (pair, size 11); Gore-Tex waterproof lining; triple-density PU sole for cushioning; low ride height for close-to-the-ground feel; great sole stiffness for rocky ground; virtually stitch-free leather upper; solid toe box, lots of support.

Rab Super Dru 2008

£200.00

The Rab Super Dru is a modern classic that is very hard to beat if you’re in search of a functional, lightweight hill-walking jacket. The Super Dru is made from 3-layer eVent fabric, which controls condensation better than Gore Paclite used on some other jackets. You also get more abrasion-resistant fabric over the shoulders and sleeves. The body is longer ...

Scarpa Manta GSB 2008

When Steve Jobs released the Apple iPhone, it must have been seconds before someone said, “Great – but when are you going to make it smaller?” Just look how tiny the iPod Shuffle is compared to the chunky original iPod Classic.The Scarpa Manta 4-season boot has stood the test of time well, with surprisingly few updates to keep boredom and ...

Rab Baltora Guide 2008

Like a number of jackets here this soft shell is made from Polartec Power Shield fabric, which offers very high levels of wind and water resistance, while maintaining a higher level of breathability than more waterproof fabrics. This top has a little more insulation built in than most, making it ideal for winter action. The jacket is relatively long too, ...

There is brushed lining too for a little extra warmth. The fabric feels tough and ideal for withstanding scrapes over rocks when climbing or mountaineering. There are stretch panels down the ...

Vaude Hogan Ultralight Argon tent (2008)

£230.00

ReviewThis is a lightweight version of the classic Hogan tent. Unlike the Hogan, it pitches inner-first with a pre-assembled pole frame that forms a skeleton from which the inner is suspended. The outer then goes over the top, with quick-release buckles and ladder-lock adjustments. There is one entrance and this leads directly into the single porch. As with many Vaude ...

Lightwave G1 Ion

£198.00

The weight and price of this 2-person tent are both great, considering what it offers. It is a 3-pole geodesic configuration, which is the most stable and spacious design. Pitching is easy, thanks to colour-coded poles and ladder-lock adjustment at the base. I liked the fact that the outer comes down close to the ground, to fend off side-driven wind ...

In short if you feel the cold, go for this as it is warm as it gets. There is also a detachable down hood to make this a ...

Rab Vidda

£180.00

The very lightweight jacket from Rab has a pleasant, technical look. The fit and length of the arms and body are good, and the deep, adjustable hood excellent. It’s very roomy in the chest, which will be perfect for some women. Although simply styled, the attention to detail is very apparent. The cuffs and hem are fully adjustable, the hood ...
