Meran Lady GTX Walking boots

These boots are lovely & comfortable, the fit is great as I've a wide foot, they take a bit of wearing in but are definitely worth the money.

The best mosquito repellent

The mosquitos love me but not anymore! The expedition max deet is superb. I never got one bite and usually with other lotions and potions I’m eaten alive!!!!

Now, I'm not an explosives expert by any stretch, but I would reckon that these Base Camp duffel bags can withstand a hell of a blast. The large is plenty big for a full on week/fortnight of stuff and the grab handles/carry straps make it not too uncomfortable to haul, even when full of odd shaped camping gear. This is my second one as I needed something bigger than the medium that I use a lot and it has done everything asked of it.

Printed Survival Bag

The best shop for hiking gear or any other outdoor activities. I visited this store few times, and something I love about this shop is its staff, they are very well knowledgeable about the perfect gear for each sport. Today Carol assist me choosing a down jacket for my summit night for Elbrus, she is just so good, I recommend her to anyone who is not sure about what is best for their trip or activity.

I have visited all the outdoors shops in Dublin, and not body is well knowledgeable like the ones in The Great Outdoors. Well done guys and keep this standard.
