I have got an outhaus swag. They're really good for one night car camps, or as extra accommodation when you have a bigger tent (or campervan... that's what I use mine for) They take about a minute to set up, and are pitch black inside and very well ventilated. Most of the time I use mine...

I bought all mine when the £ was a lot stronger, and cactus would post your gear to avoid customs charges. Their stuff really lasts. Subscribe to their emails, sometimes you get a bargain in the sale. They sell their shorts off at the end of NZ summy, just in time for ours!

Hi...how long from the tip of the pin to the the first hole on the belt? (Ie the smallest waist it will fit)

Definitely the toughest trousers you'll find. I've got shorts from 2006 that are still going strong, and some trousers from 2007 that are barely broken in.

Hi, Long time BB member, amongst other outdoor forums, and former BCUK regular. I've been googling a few bits, and came back to BCUK via a link. I'm still out and about in the countryside, hiking, camping etc. Obviously I'm still a gear nut. Good to see the forum so busy.

Interesting thread: I drive and cycle, live in area frequented by a lot of road cyclists due to the quiet roads.... The behavior of club cyclists can be infuriating: 3/4 abreast, in a large groupe, travelling at 20 mph, on fast two lane counrty lanes makes it very hard to pass. Even a couple of...

I have got a set in medium - any good to you?

Great video! thanks!

I've stayed at that campsite in february, the showers and toilets were all frozen ( I was in a nice warm caravan ;) though) It's a great place, nice and quiet, and a good location. Thanks for reminding me of it! Good trip report btw.

+1 for not bothering with the wax! imo for waterproofing it's a waste of time, go the grangers etc route. The wax does seem to improve wind / weather resistance though, obviously at the price of breathability.

great thread. Good to see someone getting out from behind the computer! Props for toughing the blisters out.

@ John Fenna; were you the guy fom the original buffalo ad? If so you're an absolulte outdoor ledgend!!! I've still got the buffalo shirt and superbag i bought on the strength of that ad in 1992!

I'll have it if it's still availiable!

AS a firefighter i've worn the Goliath fireboots for 5 yrs or so, with no problems, and have just been issued the side zip steel tog boots for daily wear. they seem to be pretty good, comfy out the box, and some lads have had them over a year with no signs of wear ( bear in mind they have an...

I've got the longs and the shorts. I'd be amazed if anyone makes better (tougher) trousers. if you're on fb look them up: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151294935053427&set=a.10151294934978427.495224.18529293426&type=1&theater

I'll have the filson hat if it's availiable! pp?

I've stayed at grizedale a few times a year for the last four or five years. It's a superb site,my favourite in the lakes, primarily due to the owner, Arthur, a farmer who had diversified and is always friendly and helpful, and the fact he allows open fires. The pods are excellent, please dont...

I've got a 4s outer and inner, but they're lg iirc. If you're over 6ft / 14.5st you'de be pushing it. let me know if they're any good to you.

i'll have the french knife please!

i think the new ad, and the hands free protocol is superb. most of the people i know would be unwilling / reluctant to perform 'mouth to mouth' cpr. There no real excuse for not wanting to give chest compressions. It's not rocket science, plus the ad's caught people's attention across the...
