Walking Gear - Buyer’s Guides
For all seasons
Whether you’re in search of nature or seeking adventure, nothing beats the joys of walking. And whilst there’s no special kit required, it’s a good idea to consider what to wear and take with you.
What should you wear while walking?
Consider where you will be walking, the season and the weather you may encounter. Good footwear is important and walking boots are a good option for all kinds of walks. When thinking about clothing, many items work all year round in combination with different layers. You may also want to think about, natural versus synthetic fabrics as well as ethical considerations.
