    Good morning mate. Anything which helps & encourages ladies of any age to get into the hills whether solo or with others is great. I'm always happy to see evidence of this in the Lake District. As I've said before you're inspiring a lot of ladies to do just that. Lovely couple of Oslo shots too & I can't wait to be stretched out in the warm grass like you at 8:52 once more when this lockdown is all over. All the best xx

      Thanks a lot! I think there are lots of women getting more into hiking and the outdoors but there’s not always a lot of content for them, so hopefully I can be a source of help 😊 while also making other gear videos for everyone! I could try force Harvey to model for a men’s hiking gear video 😅😅

    My favorite new piece of clothing is the 2020 Patagonia Nano Air Vest. I love the idea of breathable clothes with a wide comfort temp range. In Canada we also have the MEC T3 range which is super breathable fleece at a low price point, my long term favorite for active wear.

    Thank you for the beautiful asthetics in the video and for the explanation about your layered gear for the inbetween weather! I'm a bit late, but can you say anything about how the patagonia longsleeve holds up esp in regard to smells? When I'm outdoors I often wear clothes several times without washing in between and I fear the polyester part will make the shirt stink :) Thanks in advance!

    Let's say you have to cook or be around a fire. The leggings that you are wearing are they able to melt to you if a spark hits them. And if you hike you know about 550 line and how it gets when melting the ends, will your pants do the same?

    Montane and Hagloffs leggings look like cheaper versions of the Fjallraven ones, is there a difference in weight & function?

    • @RambleFamily
      @RambleFamily  4 роки тому

      The Fjallraven ones are definitely heavier and I would wear them more for Autumn-Winter. They are really tough with reinforced knees and bum pad so better for scrambling and more 'adventurous' hikes I think. I'd also say slightly better quality especially than the Montane ones (reflected in the price) :)

  • @Autumn1988
    @Autumn1988 4 роки тому

    I really like the look of the Millican Fraser 25, but the back length seems quite long. Do you feel that the Millican packs are good for men and women, as they have no female specific fit?

    • @RambleFamily
      @RambleFamily  4 роки тому

      I think they're great and haven't noticed any issues, saying that I am 'above average' height for a woman at 5'7" so if you are smaller it may be something you notice more. When I'm carrying more weight, i.e. for wildcamping or doing big hillwalks I usually wear a pack designed for women :)

    • @RambleFamily
      @RambleFamily  4 роки тому

      Hi, thank you for your comment, I really appreciate your constructive criticism. I also wholeheartedly agree that you don't need lots of expensive gear to enjoy the outdoors, especially when you're just starting out getting into hiking etc. When I started I used to just wear cotton leggings and tshirts, boots that were too small for me and woollen jumpers! I started investing in better quality gear as I started doing longer hillwalks and then alpine hiking and climbing as I found it important to feel comfortable in the hills. So I suppose this video reflects the gear I think is really good quality, and brands I believe in for their ethics and sustainability. I don't necessarily think that some of the cheaper brands are as good from that standpoint. I should probably have given a bit of a disclaimer at the beginning of the video that you don't need expensive gear to enjoy the outdoors BUT that if you want my personal advice on good quality gear, this is it :) thanks again, I will take the comment on board moving forward. Athena
