We always need at least one big backpack among our luggage. In various occasions we need to carry some of our stuff on our backs. From simple one-day hikes to multi-day trekking adventures, it is absolutely necessary to be able to take only some pieces of our equipment with us (our tent, sleeping bags, stove, … Read More
REVIEW | RedFox Expedition Duffel Bag 100L
We couldn’t decide what kind of luggage would be the best to withstand the load of spare parts, tools and other heavy objects we carry. And it’s not only the weight but also the shape and the material of all this stuff that make carrying it tricky. When we saw the Red Fox Expedition Duffel … Read More
REVIEW | RedFox Basalt climbing pants (Women’s & Men’s)
We need to begin describing the RedFox Basalt Climbing pants from their best feature: they are amazingly comfortable!

Any other type of gas stove (propane, butane etc) isn’t an option for us, because a) we are on a long-term trip around countries where it can be difficult to replace or refill the bottle, b) we use our stove not only for … Read More
REVIEW | Katadyn Vario water filter (15 months use)
