Kit Worth Coming Back To
Kit Worth Coming Back To
There's a moment – usually sometime around the second brew – when a good basecamp stops feeling like a temporary place, and starts feeling like somewhere you actually want to stay. The fire's going, the chair's comfortable, and nobody's in any particular hurry to do anything.
Getting there takes the right kit. Not more kit – just better kit. We've pulled together the gear that makes the difference, from camp furniture built to last a weekend to cooking setups that make dinner something worth looking forward to, and sleep systems that mean you actually wake up ready for whatever's next.
Multiple mounting options, 3 different colour modes and multiple brightness options mean it's easy to find just the right level of light for your space.
The caged lantern design comes from the logging camps of working forests – Barebones kept the classic form and replaced the paraffin with a rechargeable LED.
Snow Peak make some of the most considered camp kit on the planet. Chair, table, fireplace, kettle, dripper – the whole basecamp setup, designed in Japan and built to outlast everything else in your kit bag. Back every piece with a lifetime guarantee and you've got a brand that puts its money where its mouth is. This is what basecamp looks like.
NEMO Equipment built their reputation building just about the finest backpacking tents and sleeping bags in the game – and that reputation is well earned. But spend a night in a Disco Down sleeping bag at a coastal campsite, or sink into a Stargaze Chair as the sun goes down, and you realise this is a brand that performs just as well when the rush is off. Technical gear that's equally at home when you've nowhere to be in the morning.
