Campsite luxury from Alite with the Mayfly Chair

Alite is a small company from the Mission District of San Francisco. Its founders have a background in product design for some of the biggest names in the outdoor industry. When they set up on their own they wanted to acknowledge that it's a small minority of customers who actually take outdoor gear in to the dramatic, remote environments that tend to feature in the advertising campaigns of outdoor companies. They felt that most people just enjoy doing their thing outdoors and Alite products are the result of applying the research, design and quality of adventure market products in to stuff that you can use at the beach or in the camp site.
Which is where the Mayfly Chair comes in.

We're stocking this super-comfortable, super-light, super-strong chair in our Harrogate store. It costs £85 but if you feel the quality of its construction you'll see that it's worth comparing it to a piece of furniture in your home. Hailing from the USA, of course all the facts and figures pertaining to it are in imperial measurements. It weighs only 1.6lbs (by my reckoning that's about 725g) and can support an adult weighing 250lbs (over 17 stone or 113kg)

A new look at the VauDe Splash Air 20+

We’ve been selling the VauDe Splash Air 20+ (£55) for a number of years and sometimes when you get really familiar with a product you can start to take its features for granted and forget how well-considered they are. This thought came to mind when I was preparing one for the window display and caused me to look afresh at what makes this perennial favourite such an award-winning classic.
