New stocks of Buff, Helly Hansen & Outdoor Designs in Peebles

We promised we would keep customers up to date with the erratic deliveries we've been receiving recently. The back log from the transport difficulties here in Scotland a couple of weeks ago is now easing and this means that we currently have good stocks of Buff products, including standard, junior, merino and polar versions
We've also had a delivery of base layers from Helly Hansen. This includes the lightweight stripe crew necks and fly pants at £25 each


The Prowool Freeze half zip at £50 is also back in stock

When the first lot of snow came at the end of November lots of people found that wellies just weren't warm enough and found that they got on better with their walking boots and then gaiters to keep the snow out. We ran out of gaiters a coulpe of weeks ago as a result but we now also have them back in stock starting at £15 for the Tundra gaiter, £17 for the front fastening Alpine gaiter and £23 for the eVent Perma gaiter


So that takes care of the deliveries that have been stuck in the system but doesn't allow for the fact that more recent orders haven't even left the distributors yet. We'll keep you posted on when we expect increased levels of socks and gloves to be available and also the elusive snow grabbers for use on icy pavements.

The above items were available at the time of posting but stocks are moving quickly so please contact us before travelling in anticipation of a purchase

25 years on...still going strong

In November 1992 we were working hard to get our shop in Peebles opened. We were living in a draughty old shepherd's cottage in the Moorfoot Hills at the time and one day, our landlady remarked that there was a famous mountaineer coming to give a fundraising talk in aid of the village hall. It seemed unlikely but yes, Chris Bonington was coming to Carrington. It proved to be a memorable evening that people still occasionally mention to us today. Standing room only with an eclectic audience of school children, Women's Institute stalwarts, elders of the kirk and a smattering of outdoor enthusiasts. It probably wasn't the kind of gathering Bonington was used to speaking to but his professionalism and communication skills ensured that his stories came alive for everyone in the room. At the end of the presentation we joined the scrum of autograph hunters and got his signature on a poster which we hung in our new shop on the day it opened. It stayed on the wall for quite a few...
