About Our Products
What types of outdoor equipment do you specialise in?
We specialise in high-quality camping and outdoor adventure equipment including:
- Sleeping systems (sleeping bags, bivi sacks, liners, pillows, and sleeping pads)
- Camping kitchens (stoves and equipment)
- Accessories and parts (compression sacks, inflatable mattresses, pumps)

How do I choose the right sleeping bag for my adventure?
Our sleeping bags are designed for different conditions. Consider:
- The temperature rating (match to your expected conditions)
- Weight and pack size if you’re backpacking
- Material (synthetic vs. down insulation)
- Shape (mummy for warmth, rectangular for comfort)

Returns & Exchanges
What is your return policy?

Who pays for return shipping?
Customers are responsible for return shipping costs unless the item is faulty or incorrect. We recommend using a trackable shipping method as we can’t be responsible for lost return packages.

Once we receive your returned item, we’ll process your refund within 5 business days. Refunds will be credited to your original payment method and may take additional time to appear on your statement depending on your bank or card issuer.
Do you offer exchanges?
Currently, we process returns and new orders separately for efficiency. If you need a different size or product, please return the original item (following our return policy) and place a new order.
