20 years ago today we first opened the doors in our second shop in Peebles. 20 years feels like a substantial period of time and it's hard to decide whether to acknowledge that it encompasses nearly half our lifetime's experiences to date or to marvel at how young we were when it all started off. So much has changed over the years we've been here. I fact, I was wracking my brains to think if there is anything in the shop that we sold on day one that we still sell, unchanged, now. The best I could come up with is tent pegs and the flat, square batteries that go in the old style Petzl Zoom headtorches. 20 years of these! Petzl stopped making the Zoom a few years ago but there are lots of them still around (probably a few that might be 20 years old and still operational) so we still have a steady requirement for the batteries.

A couple of new jackets have just arrived in our Harrogate store to complement our growing range of lightweight, synthetic insulated clothing at a competitively priced £80.  Sprayway have introduced the women's Firebird with zoned insulation (60g in the hood, 80g in the sleeves and 100g in the body) which weighs only 427g and packs away into its own pocket. Incredibly versatile, this jacket can be worn as an outer layer, carried in your rucksack to provide spare insulation if conditions change and it isn't too bulky to wear underneath your waterproof if conditions turn really bad. Sprayway Women's Firebird £80 The men's equivalent is the Reactor and incorporates the same features for a barely increased weight of 504g. Both jackets are currently available only in our Harrogate store Sprayway Men's Reactor £80
