Amazonas are a German manufacturer that make high quality hammocks and Simply Hammocks offered us the chance to test and review the Moskito-Traveller Pro from their Ultralight range.
Despite the fact that this is part 1 of a two part story of one man's walk from the southernmost point of Italy to the northernmost point in Norway the title is something of a misnomer.
A single-layer solution providing comprehensive backcountry protection with exceptional breathability, the Airah combines waterproof GORE-TEX® performance with air-permeable Polartec® Alpha® insulation.
Arcteryx have got an enviable reputation when it comes to winter wear, combining build quality, design and functionality in products you can rely on. When they announced a new insulated jacket in the form of the Cerium LT Hoody we jumped at the chance to put it through a full 3 months of testing in preparation for the winter season.
It's been a long time coming but people are finally getting back to the hills. In the run-up to lockdown we had a number of samples in on test including the Arcteryx Proton LT Hoody.
The Arc’teryx Gamma SL Hoody is the Canadian company's latest offering in the Gamma range and there's no doubt what the SL in the name means. If LT means light then at half the weight the SL is distinctly Super Light.
Arcteryx are famous for their style and innovation so when they designate a shoe with the letters LD for long distance you have to sit up and take notice.
I have massive hands and skinny wrists. It's true and trying to find gloves that both fit and perform isn't easy especially for the colder months. I've been through many a pair and either they don't fit or I don't get any feedback from the handle bars. The price has been irrelevant £7 gloves have outperformed £70 gloves. So when the bonKa gloves landed I my door I didn't let the brand or the price influence me.
