5.11 are not just your regular clothing line - they are the Bear Grylls of clothing lines. Their original 5.11 Pant was chosen by the FBI Training Academy as its training pant in 1992, which began the long relationship of 5.11’s commitment to public safety and the first responder community. In 2003, 5.11 Tactical began developing a larger range in their law enforcement line by creating gear that met the needs of people in the field, and in 2012 they redesigned their women’s range for a better fit and higher performance.

Oh Geckobot, how I love you and hate you at the same time. Depending on the concentration levels and perseverance of your child, you might want to set aside yourself a day to put this together as chances are they will wonder off.

Skandika Mercury Moon Chair

Cringe alert! One of the things I miss when we go camping aside from clean toilets, cold beer, and not getting food poisoning from under-cooked sausages, is having a cuddle on the sofa. Before you get excited, no, the Mercury Moon Chair is not a sofa. Also, I must say straight away that the max weight for the chair is 110kg. I won’t tell you how much we weigh together but it is slightly over that… The good news is that we didn’t fall through the bottom of it.

Shreddies Men's Undershorts

I had high hopes for the Shreddies Undershorts as we have recently started to try a healthier diet by eating more veg, and less meat. This has resulted in my other half letting rip some crackers, although the noise is initially hilarious (yes, we are both over 30 and it still makes us laugh), but when the smell of old bins and compost heap wafts over my way…let’s just say even the cats leave the room, and they enjoy smelling some questionable areas on each other!

Often camera bags come in either a backpack or shoulder bag format, this is because when your hands are full of expensive camera you don’t want to be juggling a bag strap at the same time. So I was surprised when I saw that Peak Design had released an Everyday Tote bag.  Available in Charcoal or Ash, the bag comes with two FlexFold Dividers, an anchor for key tether, and a tripod band to secure a tripod. It is carry on approved by most airlines and is made from a waxed Kodra synthetic canvas with DWR coating for weather protection.
