Great gloves, purchased for himalayan trek. Kept hands warm in very cold temperatures. Only minus a star as gloves could have benefited from having a sturdier outer layer. With Velcro on my jacket,... See more

About Sub Zero Technology Ltd

Written by the company

During a cold and wet scramble along the Lake Districts Helvellyn mountain in 1967, Derek Laxton hit upon inspiration for a technical range of thermal underwear.

With a trained mechanical engineer background and a lust to run his own company, in 1969 Sub Zero Technology was created. From their original Leicester Textile Mill, the Sub Zero Factor 1 range of thermal base layers was born to worldwide acclaim.

In the five decades since, Sub Zero have expanded their range to include heavy weight thermal mid layers through to insulating down jackets. Never a company to stand still, Sub Zero have adopted new manufacturing processes, such as seamless knitting technology and body mapping, to produce garments that are at the pinnacle of performance.

Sub Zero today is still family owned, with the third generation of Laxtons running the company. The factory and offices now reside in rural Leicestershire, with the workforce coming from the local communities. Sub Zeros work ethos is still true today as it was form its interception - to design and manufacture technical outdoor clothing using the finest technical textiles for the words most extreme conditions.

Made in GB imparts the quality of these items. Key feature of these layers is to keep warmth whilst not getting wet during exercises.

These bags are great for expeditions as they are extremely tough and rectangular, which sounds like an odd thing to commend, but it makes stacking them a breeze. Thank you for your review.

Thank you for your kind review. Ex-UK customs can be tricky at the moment due to staffing issues created by Covid and the massive increase in parcel numbers. That is why we send most parcels tracked, it just gives us more information to act on.

Sea To Summit Collapsible Silicon Camping Cup

Good company to deal with and quick delivery of item ordered.
Sea To Summit Cup is well made, lightweight and small when collapsed.
Only CON is, it is too small a drink for me at 250mm / 45g, I would have preferred it to be slightly bigger maybe 350mm.
I should have ordered the STS mug and just put less in it, my mistake.

Thank you for your review. We do sell their X Tumbler at 350ml and X Mug at 380ml - although these sell really quickly. As with everyone at the moment, stock deliveries are sporadic.

Thank you for your kind review. Those matches are very good in stormy weather when trying to light a stove or fire. We also sell refills so you can keep on using the carry case.
