Membership of the Camping and Caravaning Club will also give you an extra 10% off the price of stuff. Great video as usual. đ
Bugger! Wish I kept up our Membership! Oh wait....I get Bluelight discount.....Winner!!!
I love these kinds of reviews, and makes me wish I was back in UK again.
I noticed the hybrid jacket. I think it will be windproof at the front and back but still let some heat escaper. I have something similar from Decathlon that is only quilted at the front and it is great for cycling on those dry days that still have a bit of a wind chill, and the heat and moisture can wick away throught the arms, shoulders and back, but still keeps the windchill (from cycling speed) out of my torso.
Iâve recently brought the OEX self-inflating pillow, used it on two separate wild camps now - I really rate it, and it properly self-inflates..
I use mine in combination with the the Luxury Pillow (red one) they also sell, as Iâm a side sleeper and need the extra height.
I'm really liking the Peter storm stuff at the moment it really seems to punch well above its price point .
Got ,trousers ,down jackets , shorts and fleeces .all great stuff.
Same here, got some boots a few weeks back, really well made đ
Wonât keep you dry
Canât agree more!! Peter storm is spot on for the price, Iâve never had any issues with anything from tops, fleeces to walking boots.
Awesome vid. I'd love to have a go outdoors nearby! I've had a Peter storm alpinist down jacket for a year now and it's been great, was only 40 quid. Good middle of the road stuff kinda like oex
Thanks for the advice, was a great help when buying products for my first wild camping adventure.
Glad it was helpful! đ€đ
Cool way to speak to customers! Thanks
Love a good trip to go outdoors, and love a good challenging price match
hi and many thanks ben for a very informative and comprehensive browse around a popular outdoors store.
kind regards.
No problemo đ€đ
Been buying Peter storm stuff for years, good value for money and very similar to Regatta in price and quality. Lately they have been bringing out costs and jackets with no zips on the pockers. But my last Regatta jacket lacked them too.
I have a blue Peter Storm down jacket, purchased in a sale around ÂŁ40 at Go-outdoors, 2 years ago & is still going strong, but I have had to make a couple of minor stitch repairs to the elasticated cuffs. Same jacket a lot more expensive now, if it goes on sale again, I'd definitely buy another.
Great overview, thank you.
That was a really helpful video, thanks. I love the Peter Storm women's walking leggings. Not lightweight, but very comfortable.
It's good to have such a place to go and have physical access to a full range of stuff. Shame there aren't similar retail outlets stocking other brands. I'd love to have some hands on with some other lightweight tent manufacturers
firepot meals - they rock! best ones I have ever tried, although they can need a bit longer than you think to fully rehydrate. Really hot water, keep it warm and give it a couple minutes longer than it says on the packet and they taste better than an army MRE to me.
Ooh good to know. Canât wait to try them đ
Iâve got a pair of Peter Storm Arnside boots, they are pretty good for rough gravel paths and have kept my feet dry so far.
Peter storm seems to have got into all my outdoor gear choices just recently đ jacket / wet legs/ etc etc choosing this now instead go outdoors own stuff, very happy with them all & Iâm loving our new Go store in Derby âŠitâs a go to destination !
Unless itâs a match day đ
My son has the kids version of the Peter storm synthetic insulated jacket, it's been great, and still looks good after a year of use and abuse. When I worked in the tent department at Go I modified a north ridge col, cutting the weight down to 1.6kg from 1.9kg......head office copied most of my modifications and the col lite was born....sadly I got no recognition for that, but it became the bobcat 1, which still needs improvement (inner needs attachment to outer on rear guy point, and more guy points to pull the rear panel out for more internal space.
Well I for one appreciate your input with the mods! I love my Bobble cat. I need to get some stuff to do the rear mods I've seen videos on. Thank you
Hello there!! I just found your channel From watching Grizzly Gaz ! Very awesome content Thanks! Stay safe and enjoy the outdoors đ
Cheers Christopher! You too! Ben đ€
Hi Daley I got a few Peter storm clothes.. fleece tops,...trousers, socks, waterproofs and had no problem with any off them over the last yr am happy with them so far
Good to hear đ
My favorite GO store.
My local store lol I have a Peter Storm Alpinist Down Jacket I paid just ÂŁ30 for, it does leak feathers but is warm enough when itâs cool but above freezing. I actually own one of those Craghoppers Evans fleeces, very warm but perhaps to be expected not very breathable đ
Three days trip sounds amazing. Have fun :)
Should be good. Iâm looking forward to it đŹđ
The regatta jackets are brilliant, I been up Snowdon in snow and they keep the cold out without sweating to much
Great vid mate, got peter storm hybrid jacket last year really happy with it. Still going strong đ
Good to hear mate. Iâll give them a go đ
I've bought one of the thinner Regatta fleeces around October time and it was so good that I picked up a couple more in the new year's sale plus a body warmer version for when it is a bit chilly early in the morning or late in the evening in the summer.
Nice! I need to grab one (or a few) đ
@@DaleyOutdoors Two should be enough, one to wash and one to wear although they do dry quickly when the laundry department gets round to washing them. I got the third one because they were sale and I wanted to leave it permanently in my camper.
I like the peter Storm stuff, got a few bits and they seem good value and quality, for a mid range brand. Iâve always bought in the sale though so never paired full price.
My first waterproof was a peter storm - very good! can you do a comparison of one of my fave bits of kit - the poncho - multitude of uses groundsheet, emergency shelter, crude but surprisingly cost effective
Another honest review of the low-enders - I'm loving The North Ridge range they do at Go Outdoors. Give em a go folks!!
I was looking at some North Ridge boots. They do look good đ
They really are .I use them for work boots and they are excellent .
That's a good brand have a few tops from them excellent kit
Nice undercover work Ben đ I have a few bits of Peter storm gear, down jacket, that rain jacket you seen and the calderbeck walking boots which have been comfy from day one, 3yrs on and still going strong, can't fault any of his stuff I've had đđ
Mr Storm is doing pretty well it seems đ
Hey ben,
thxs For sharing the video ... very informatif ...!!! TOP ..
Grtz. Janneman from The Netherlands ...
Thanks - appreciate it! đ
Great video Ben , I've used a peter Storm fleece for years and would recommend đ
Cheers! Iâll give them a go when I next need something. Probably wonât be too long đ€Ł
I've never been to one of these stores, couldn't even tell you where the nearest one was. Having watched this though I'll be finding out. I've used Peter Storm in the past, not bad for the price.
I have the Regatta Anderson V hybrid jacket in red and black. It is more of a lightweight jacket but very comfortable in chilly weather, with a shirt and jumper on as well when it gets really cold.
I have just bought the OEX Hiero stove last week from Go Outdoors in Wakefield. I tested it when I got home in the kitchen and it took 1.38 minutes to boil 400ml of water. This is the amount of water you would need for a boil in the bag meal to cook and also for a hot drink too. I watched The English Woodsman on You Tube test one a few weeks ago and it boiled more or less the same amount in just over 2 minutes. The comparison Jet Boil stove took nearly 3 minutes and literally costs twice as much. The Hiero Stove costs around ÂŁ45 in Go Outdoors and ÂŁ50 in Millets. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a cheap stove.
Another recommendation I want to give a shout to is Nikwax TX-Direct. I bought a gallon of it from Go-Outdoors about 5 years ago and used to waterproof all my outdoor gear. It's fantastic stuff. If say your gear has a water rating of 5000 HH. TX-Direct will double it, maybe even triple it. Water literally beads up and rolls off.
I even used the TX Direct on a cheap Lidl tent and in 3 years of wild camping, it has never leaked. I have re-done it once again though.
That looks like one hell of a trip, I canât wait to see that one.
Me either! đ
@@DaleyOutdoorslet us know how it goes. I'm thinking of nipping over to the UK to walk in the Peak District. Not camping though, but maybe there is a route with (reasonable) accommodation. Any Ideas?
Peter Storm not bad. I used a pair of PS waterproof trousers for my SDW hike.
I have had Peter Storm fleeces before, they are good, and Craghoppers trousers which are OK, I still use the polyester travel ones. But that was a long time ago, and my experience with Craghoppers hasn't been so good recently.
Been using the Phox 2 a while now and been great đ
Have u ever tried a basher it can pack smaller than a head good for 2 people and they are good up to 100 mph winds
Bought a Porta Potti from Go Outdoors recently , and with CC Club membership got the 10& off, and it then worked out cheaper to buy the membership to get a further discount!
Thank you đ
I use Peter storm great all the time and have found no faults what so ever
I can't find it on E-bay now but the store chains you mention sell their return tents on there mostly family size but also 1/2 man tents for pretty cheap. Finished off the Limestone way this weekend. Ended up eating in pubs so pretty much all the food came back with me.
Iâve got the limestone way on my list. Probably for next year nos though.
The oex pillow is alright. For me, I find it hard to sleep as it is quite hard and not flexible. I tend to sleep with it wrapped in fleeces and with the inflatable bit open so it is more comfortable and like a normal pillow
peter storm ul rain jacket, brilliant, bought two
I have a pair of Peter Storm trousers that can be turned into shorts by unzipping the legs. I bought them in 1998 and they are still going strong.
I bought a Peter storm waterproof jacket a couple years back for silly money of ÂŁ19.99 and it's great and has never failed even in a storm on Dartmoor over a couple day's. So I don't need a ÂŁ100+ waterproof from the big brands
Just getting back into hiking so I was at a branch of Go Outdoors in the Midlands today too. Paid 25 quid for a Eurohike Nepal, 55 quid on an OEX Fathom EV 400; got a pair of the thin 17 quid trousers and some odds and sods like dry bags etc. Love that shop!! And with them offering 15% off at the moment, it's an absolute steal.
One thing that did surprise me though.... first time I have seen the Phoxx II on display and was shocked at how small it actually is lol. Saw the Tamar and was quite impressed with its size but would prefer to avoid fibreglass poles. Does no one offer an upgrade kit? Doesn't matter though cos I really seem to have my heart set on the Helm 2 compact from Wild Country.
Loving the videos mate!!
Thanks Karma đ The Helm 1 and 2 are a great choice đ€
I bought the Brasher trouser least year. The fleece lining is to the knees only and the zip is a bit flimsy. I find that i cant squat down in them as they are not all that loose.. Maybe I need a bigger size.?
I've got one of the padded Peter storm 20 quid jackets, it's done me well for years, always use it with a layer or 2 underneath
Also had Peter storm boots and walking trainers and they've lasted me 2 years each so far
I'd go for pricier brands if I could afford it but for the price I can't knock Peter storm
Iâll give some of their stuff a go I think đ
Your video kept popping up and I thought it would be a paid promotion since Go Outdoors added loads of new products recently, pleasantly surprised to see that it was some quality youtube content. Straight to the point and looking out for the working class! Subbed!
I have a Peter Storm packable rain coat, it's pretty much a Frogg Toggs, it holds up okay. Keeps me dry in moderate rain, wets out in really heavy rain after 20 mins or so, though I never expected it to do this good ÂŁ20 well spent.
I own the OEX Phoxx 2 II, it's great, my secondary is a Lanshan 2. Phoxx for windy nights and bikepacking, Lanshan for good weather and lightweight hiking.
Cheers Joe đ
Those Peter Storm boots look identical to the old Hi Gear Snowdon boots they sold a while back.
in milton keynes today go outdoors they were having a 30% off closing down sale.don't know if they meant all shops.
You do not have to sign up and pay for a membership card. However the prices you pay as a non-member are a lot higher and as others have said you can get the ÂŁ5 back quickly. In reality itâs the same approach Tesco takes in their some of their prices are lower for their club card members ( itâs just that Tesco donât charge for their card)
Ive been to GO in Nottingham and Chesterfield and there were no OEX tents pitched, good to see they have them pitched at Derby, ill have to go and look. Im just looking at starting up with camping/hiking, so enjoying seeing your videos. Thanks for your efforts. Look forward to seeing your 3 day trip.
Thanks đ€ This was the first time Iâve seen OEX tents pitched too đ
Chesterfield do normally have OEX up, went a few weeks ago and they had none up but have been since and they had them up.
@@emilyjohnson4993 thanks for the heads up. I actually live closer to nottm/derby but went in while I was in the area, typical that they weren't up when I went in đ€Ł
@@DaleyOutdoors I had a nip to derby GO, think I'm pretty much decided on the Phoxx 2, but there's just too many choices everywhere. Maybe I'll have to hold off and keep my fingers crossed for your raffle đ
I have a Peter Storm jacket... had it for about 15 years now. Okay, so I don't wear it every day, but it's not served me poorly.
Good to know - thanks Lazzy đ Ben
Peter Storm is very good quality at reasonable prices.
Had a suspicion they where the same companys . I try to use Millets as they are permanently on a closing down sale , and seem to have some good kit. I do like go outdoors though
I get everyone had different budgets but Iâd rather save up and get a better quality item. Iâve had my Osprey Talon 22 for over 10 years and itâs been hammered and still like new. My Mammut boots have been up and down the Brecon Beacons and Snowdonia for nearly 10 years and again like new just as you would expect a bit of sole wear. Rab down is neatrly 8 years old and perfect. I know what my choice would be đđœđđœ
Crazy how the prices have changed, I'm still yet to try camping been looking at equipment for a while now tho. The prices since December have gone crazy, really wish I had got the phoxx tent online at ÂŁ50, went in store had no stock so waited and deal ended. Great video!!
Tell me about it. Itâs gone mad!
@@DaleyOutdoors Still a cheap holiday though, Band B , even YHA accommodation is very expensive now.
I got a Bobcat for ÂŁ60 a couple of years ago. My son uses it as the pole is so tight I cant physically get it in to the correct positions. He complains the the inner doesnât link to the outer at the guy line point and is a bit saggy inside . I use the Phoxx 2
Hi Ben, excellent video again đ
I used my new updated Osprey Exos 48 last weekend, and as you say the side straps are a pain, but imaging my horror after praising the fact they put back the hip belt pockets... when wearing the backpack I cannot zip close the pockets ! is it just me ? ................ not happy đ€š. But im loving the adjustable back system, good effort Osprey but still not the perfect backpack yet for me.
All the best mate
I found I needed both hands to close the hip belt zips. Not good.
Iâve a drawer full of Regatta Fleeces , 15⏠. Canât be beaten đđ
Yeah I wish Iâd grabbed one. Iâll get one next time Iâm in đ€
And worth noting that if you are a holder of a Defence Discount Card then you will receive an extra 10% off your purchases in Go Outdoors and Ultimate Outdoors. Weirdly at the moment you get 15% off at Millets and Blacks, 10% off at Ultimate Outdoors.
Good to know/share. Thanks Phil! đ
And check out if you are a Camping & Caravanning Club or Caravan Club member as I think they get an extra 10% as well on top of any Go Outdoors card prices
Peter storm gaiters are very good.
The 5 quid membership is weird but like you said I looked at prices and I will easily get that back in savings.
I am new to the camping thing and still learning. Doesn't an inflatable mat insulate you from ground?
Got a few pieces of Peter Storm clothing I use for foraging and bushcraft...they seem decent enough quality and reasonably priced.
Itâll have little benefit unless itâs got insulation in it. Look for proper ASTM âRâ ratings to give you an idea of warmth
I like the firepot meals but I would say soak the longer than the recommended time as they seem to be slow to rehydrate
Thanks for the tip đ
Regatta can't be beaten for the price of their clothes. Just don't expect any of it to be waterproof when they say they're waterproof except their 'boil in a bag' type stuff. But then you'll end up wet from sweat! Haha. But all other regatta clothing is pretty decent đ
Similar experience at mountain warehouse. I've bought lots of stuff like base t shirts, fleeces, puffa jackets all at sale prices, so tens of pounds. Bargains.
Cotton tshirts you can wash, the other tshirts the poly ones - wash all you want, it'll still hang on to that gym smell.
Cotton is still no good for hiking in however it smellsâŠ
heheh .. hmm dem na cheap are they .. dem trousers i got after one ur previous vidsbeen handy as hell tho
Bloody hell Ben, your local GoOutdoors is way better stocked than mine (Lincoln). Must have known you where paying a visit đ
Haha yeah must have!
Iâve got those grey Peter Storm boots and theyâve been great. The only problem Iâve had is the laces wore through on the top eyelet, but that took a while to happen. Iâve also got the OEX self inflating pillow and itâs awful! Complete waste of money!
At one point around covid times, the Tamar 2 was ÂŁ30, and the Avon 3 DLX ÂŁ60. Now the Tamar 2 is about ÂŁ70 and the Avon 3 DLX ÂŁ120. If the Eurohike products ever become reasonable again I'd be interested. I purchased a few Tamar2 and Avon 3 dlx, a Rydal 500 in green (not that blue!) and a Sandero 4, all not worth the current prices at all.
Yes I paid ÂŁ30 for my Tamar 2. Crazy how prices for outdoor gear seem to be going up well above inflation everywhere!
Peter Storm gear: my experience with their boots and clothing has been really positive.
Cheers Chris, Iâll give them a go đ
Iâve got their boots and theyâve been great. Wearing well so far and always comfy
@@DaleyOutdoors I have found their kit to be 95% equal to top brands costing a heap more. Love to hear your opinion when you tested some kit out.
I bought a Peter Storm hooded puffer jacket in a sale for ÂŁ19. I have always shied away from Peter Storm, but for ÂŁ19, how could I go wrong. I am overall impressed with the jacket, however my only complaintâs about It is that it has no internal breast pocket and most importantly, there are no zips on the external pockets. Which if you off hiking or, any other type of activity, you could easily lose something like your car keys! So you can only really use the pockets to put your hands in! It would s only a minor gripe I know.
Most youth groups (scouts guides etc) get extra % off also DofE and I think emergency services all get extra discount to
I get an extra 15% off being a scout leader
I've had some amazing bargains at go outdoors they price match any UK company not just Black's or millets and also they will beat it with an extra 10% only thing it as to be the same size and colour
Cheers Craig đ
@@davesgreatescapes I know but some times they do different price's and some people think they only match those companies
I bought the Phoxx 2 v2 for 69.99 two years ago. Insane the price jump
Yeah itâs mad how much everything has gone up đŹ
Ben, have you tried the OEX Vulcan stove? It has a pre-burner on it for about ÂŁ27
No, looks similar to my fire maple remote stove.
Cotton is good for breathability and wicking
Itâs no good for hiking. It absorbs moisture and takes ages to dry.
peter storm trousers good have 2 pair ,zip off legs
I love/hate go outdoors. There are some good things, some cheap things and some bargains. but they never get any new stuff in :( it could have so much more, they have massive shops. It should be a one stop shop for EVERYTHING OUTDOORS.
Was that Wyvern Way? Surprised I didnât bump into you as Iâm always in and out of there.
Sue was đ
Ive got s Pter Storm down jacket. Cost me 50 quid. I swear by it.
Has anyone ever bought anything at Go Outdoors paying full RRP? I'd love to see their faces if you said, "No thanks, I don't want a membership. I'll just pay the extra 60 quid".
I bought the Peter Storm Millbeck boots in a WOW deal for ÂŁ39 a couple of months ago. 120 miles later I'm really pleased with them; really comfortable and no issues with feet.
Haha that would be funny! The boots are great đ
Living in Devon itâs been a few years since visiting Go Outdoors in Exeter.
Honestly donât rate Peter Storm nor Regatta
Craghoppers descent quality.
With my finances now I tend to search second hand kit
Been there as its nearby, usually go in to look around when the family goes shopping.
