C2C Scotland gear guide and advice
Team OAG tested some great gear on C2C Scotland and learned a few things about adventure racing that may help you if you’re planning something similar. Check out the race report on the website.
Approach Shoes: Asolo Mantra GV ML
Not suprisingly from an Italian company that the styling is typically Alpine with the lacing extending long to the toe box.
Odlo Packaway Pro Shell Jacket
Odlo Packaway Pro Shell, RRP £170 This lightweight rain jacket put in a really solid performance in pouring rain. The fabric literally repelled the water instantly and has a slight stretch to it – aiding free movement and making it ideal for scrambling, climbing and running. There’s two slash side pockets which double up as mesh [...]
Go Lite Kenai Shell Jacket
Go Lite Kenai Shell RRP:£115 This jacket is super-light and as such is ideal for a really active day out in the hills such as fell running or fast nordic walking.It features a rollaway hood with pit zips venting and a handy zipped chest pocket, ideal for a phone. The jacket performed really well and is [...]
Arc’teryx Beta Shell Jacket
Arc’teryx Beta £340 An excellent quality jacket made with a very good quality fabric, which is what you would expect at this price. Good sleeve length and shaped, giving that extra bit of hand protection in harsh wintery weather. Pit zips are good with waterproof taped seams. Strangely though, the main front zip looks to [...]
Paramo Alta II
Paramo Alta II £245 This jacket is the heaviest of the group and therefore the warmest of them and is particularly effective in windy weather. The styling is not fitted and because of this it feels quite old fashioned. The hood stows away completely which is ideal for windy British weather. The styling is not [...]
RAB NeoShell Stretch Shell jacket
RAB NeoShell Stretch Shell jacket RRP £270 This jacket uses Polartec’s new fabric NeoShell. In this women’s specific version the fabric offers a stretch to it, which was slightly lost on me as the jacket tested is in size medium and quite a generous fit (I’m a size 10). It has a really soft feel [...]
Montane Superfly Shell Jacket
Montane Superfly £270 I had an idea of what I was in for when I tested this jacket as I already have an older Montane jacket of my own. On first impressions it’s very light with it’s eVent fabric. Built for the British mountains, from the Lake District to the Cairngorms, the Super-Fly was developed to [...]
Salomon Quest Jacket
You may well have a pair of Salomon shoes or boots in your cupboard, but did you know they make great outdoor clothing too?
