>>2455843milsurp. recently got a good bergen from a milsurp stall for less than half the price it normally is. serving me well. the chap threw in two canteens and another small pouch all for £25. only needed one minor replacement part which cost me very little.
one pair of korean combat boots have served me well for years, hiked many miles over many mountains in them. only needed some blakeys recently.
british army bivvy bag and some milsurp tarp/basha is the core of my shelter gear.
I've invested in a good down sleeping bag from mountain warehouse though.
