• Purchased about 3 years ago. It has been used in extreme weather conditions (rain, winter living in the mountains, summer, and free camping with endless salt...). It has performed excellently in all circumstances.
    The intensity exceeds the needs as a headlamp. For more lumens, there are handheld flashlights. It has a good spot and good flood. You wouldn't call it lightweight, but its weight is not a concern. Its duration is approximately what the company announces. The only (but significant) lack is the red LED.

    Excellent jacket for very low temperatures! It was purchased this year and tested in Tzoumerka with temperatures down to -6 degrees and a breeze. I was really just in my shirt and felt nothing! Its insulation does an amazing job. However, be careful, it is by no means a mountaineering-technical jacket. It is heavy and does not have ventilation zippers. Its waterproofing will not let you down, but it’s not for too much... In conclusion, you get it as your basic jacket for casual walks, not caring about how cold it is.

  • I have had them for 3 months. They have been mainly used on accessible mountain trails, and they have performed well in every situation. The waterproofing was tested in the morning humidity of low vegetation and in heavy rain, and nothing got through. I don't know how they will hold up if I happen to dip them above the laces. They keep the foot stable, but their sole requires caution when the traction is low.

  • In this price category, the Mora has no rival! The rope is a relatively small knife, with a serrated blade on the back ideal for outdoor tasks. It is quite durable, stainless, and its handle is non-slip. I wouldn't recommend it as a primary outdoor/bushcraft knife, on one hand because its blade is 2mm (batoning) and on the other hand because the back of the blade is not 90 degrees so it won't work with the fire starter (you can fix it with a file). However, it is ideal as a backup since its 110 grams do not weigh down our overall load too much.

    It has been used about 7-8 times and has performed excellently. It is spacious enough to turn around inside with the sleeping bag. Its materials are top-notch with excellent breathability (so that internal moisture does not form) and durability. The bottom is very sturdy and despite rough handling, it has shown no signs of wear. Its waterproofing has not been tested because when it rains, it is under a tarp, but when I washed it after an outing, I tested it with the shower and not a drop got through.

  • Excellent tent. Top quality materials, very clever design, and quite lightweight. It has been tested and has performed excellently in prolonged and heavy rain and strong winds. It features cleverly placed air circulation management points to prevent internal moisture (perhaps the most important issue with cheap tents). It comfortably fits one person and a 70-liter backpack.
