LIGHTEN YOUR LOAD

Reducing pack weight (and thus increasing fun) begins with the three 'heavies' - your shelter, your sleeping system and your backpack. VentureLite offers guidelines for each of these, alongside comment on lightweight adventure kit such as stoves and fuel, clothing and footwear, lighting, nutrition, water purification and survival gear.

Craghoppers Kiwi Stretch Trousers

Well, a bootcut stretch pant, eh? Interesting work Craghoppers! Rather tight in my size but step up a couple of inches and I've found a very comfortable pair of smart/casual activity trousers. Only time will tell how they stand up to wear and tear but on initial inspection, they seem pretty steady. Two zipped pockets (these are quite deep, so not really useful for heavy items, as will smash around on your leg) and one combat style pocket on the right for larger items. The stretch fabric is impressively flexible, allowing for full movement and the waist features belt loops as well as elastic. A great product from Craghoppers.
