22nd Apr 2015 Aquasphere Kaimen Exo Goggles
To my mind there are really only two things that matter with a pair of goggles: do they keep the water out, and do they stay mist free. The Kaimen Exo does both with bells on. I swim once a week...
21st Apr 2015 Salomon Bonatti WP Jacket
I got the Bonatti to replace a well-aged Mountain Hardware Quark jacket. The Quark jacket had some good features, but its durability had let it down a little, it currently has no material between...
21st Apr 2015 Scarpa Zen Pro Approach Shoes

1st Apr 2015 X-Kit Jacket - Preview
Am pleased to say that I've had a sneak preview of this jacket. Looks amazing. I love the cost point and the PDF download option of the pattern. My Mum will be hard at work producing these for the...
1st Apr 2015 The North Face Paramount Convertible Trousers
OK so convertible trousers may not be hip, but they are just the ticket when going light is important and the weather is mixed. I've had a few pairs of convertibles before - convertible, if you're...
