Berghaus Verden 65 Rucksack

My score: 4/5

This is a great bag that can cope with arduous treks yet still remain comfortable. I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and it gets better with each walk. The Berghaus BioFit system is really easy to use, the bindings and straps are all very robust and it has kept all my stuff dry in the rainy weather we've had intermittently up in here in Lancashire. The only downside for me is the lack of smaller utility pockets.

Craghopper Corey III Fleece

My score: 4/5

The Corey fleece from Craghopper is a superb all year round jacket. It isn't too bulky so can be used as one of several layers in the cold of Winter but is also warm enough to wear as an outer garment in Autumn and Spring. Storage is basic, comprising two side-pockets, but they are big enough to store several small essentials.
