I have owned an Ecrin Rock for about 15 years now and I use it every week. I can wear it all day in hot and cold weather and it is always very comfy. The helmet is extremely hard wearing and I have been thinking of retiring it, but as far I have not yet found another helmet which is as comfy and well made as this lid.
An All-time Great Helmet. (think I may just get a new one)

Well if you are looking for a comfy approach shoe which you can keep on climbing in when you get up to the crag. The rubber on these shoes is super grippy and when climbing on the local Gritstone there is nothing better. However the side of one of my shoes has given out and I will need to replace then soon, they are 7 months old, I would expect a good quality shoe which cost a fair wack to last me 12months. So I love these shoes but I will not buy another pair.

Sleep is so important when out on the hill, this bag is the most usable down bag I have ever known. I will keep you very comfy in the super cold and its design and breathability allow you to use it even when it gets warmer, which lets face it, it doesn't get that warm it this country any time of the year.
