I have used them over the last three years, my biggest ever spend was from them. Had to move to an external frame so got the rather pricey Savotta LJK for me its been worth every penny, I also have the Savotta 339 and love that too. Been using the Finnish ground mat in my hammock recently and I turn it upside down between the layers and it helps keep it in place due to its non slip surface. All in all I really like Varusteleka.

What about import duty? I thought anything coming in over about £10 was hammered by HM customs and excise?
If not then I can see quite a bit of stuff I might take a shot at

No import duties mate. Finland is part of the EU.

Hope the wallet fares well, they certainly have some good kit there. I have had new items and surplus from them. The surplus has always been in good order too.

Thanks for the discount - 'got my order in.
As others have said - liking the humour, 'hungry mans sizes'
Despite the assurance they were unused, I was not tempted by the brown US surplus underpants...

Does the discount extend to your intriguing range of "genocide" field kit?
Still haven't worked out the wool cargos sizing!

By the time that happens I will be bankrupt and living in the woods full time with all the kit I bought from Varusteleka.
Hi Varusteleka
I’ve just been on your site and it’s fabulous. Looking at a few tins of “cock” as we share a sense of humour so who doesn’t want a can of something unmentionable in there stocking at Christmas!
So as one so close to St Nick how’s about a wee Discount code for all your Bushcraft brethren?
Go on - make Santa proud!

Blimey! What a great website- simply the fastest most functional site I’ve used this year - brilliant!
Just done a quick test order to see how things travel.
No Skrama in stock so I’ll order one with nice new belt when you’ve got them in stock.... I’ll also get something nice to drink coffee with!
Looking forward to seeing this kit.
Thanks team

Might be an idea to send them an email to see about a code, the guy hasn't been in for a while.
Got to be said i have been using these guys for a few years and they have always been spot on until my last order. Trousers sent out completely the wrong size and poo condition and took a week to respond to my email...ill see how quick the refund happens as they're now o/s of the correct size.

I heartily recommend Varusteleka shop!
I have been ordering from them some surplus items and they have been in excellent conditions. Most of the items received seems to be unissued and those that have been used and abused are still in perfectly usable state. For example, the surplus snow gaters had few tears in them but a simple needle, thread and 10 minutes of your time and it is all fixed. They also did work without the repairs.
Costumer service is excellent and shipping is fast. Prices are sometimes few euros higher than in more unknown surplus shops but you know that you get the proper stuff.
If you are in doubt- don't be! Great shop with great gear, both new and surplus!

I love their "about us" page.
