Mountain Gear

Gear! What can we say? Like many people who spend time in the mountains this is one of our favourite subjects.

At the bottom of this page you will find a series of links to our favourite shops and manufacturers, we're sure you'll find something to spend (or waste) your hard earned cash on here.

Before that, and to help with your buying decision, we'd recommend that you take a look at our latest reviews of mountain sports and equipment.

Obviously buying kit is a personal choice and what is good for one person may be a disaster for another, so we would always recommend you try before you buy.

At the end of the day, while having kit can increase the enjoyment you don't need the best money can buy to have a great time. So get out there and enjoy!
