With the temperatures finally floating above freezing, it may be time to hang up the boots. However, with the weather still being all rainy and poury, American boot specialists Danner still have a trick up their sleeve with the Trail 2650 GTX silhouette. With a lightweight mesh upper,…
It’s been a little while, but it’s time for another update on our work with 1% For The Planet. We’ve spent the last few years donating 1% of all our Patagonia revenue towards restoring some of Cumbria’s ancient woodlands. Previously we’ve bashed bracken as it puts other flora…
First of all, that’s the name of the children’s Christmas book we’re bringing out. Don’t buy it, it’s awful. Secondly, as the Lakes is getting pummeled by snowfall which swiftly transitions to powdered ice, we thought we’d slide our way up one of the peaks on the east…

We’re well into Autumn now – last week saw a pretty radical temperature drop, so much so that we’ve even turned the office radiators on. Only in the morning though, we’re not made of money. But, in the afternoon we bring out the Penfield. The American outerwear label…
We’ve been working with Icelandic outerwear label 66°North for a good few years now, sweltering in their abundance of Polartec® and GORE-TEX® innovation, and loving it. Knocking about since 1926, their gear is designed with functionality in mind, supplying professional Search & Rescue teams with some pretty hefty protection from…
