Just purchased an osprey farpoint 55 ruck sack after watching the store video of it, what a fabulous piece of kit! It’s defiantly worth every penny. The whole process of purchasing was made worry... See more

Solid experience, will repeat for sure.
I didn't know the store but I came up while looking for travel/hiking gear and was one of the few retailers in the UK selling brands such as Eagle Creek. Now I have made 2 orders with them and have nothing but good things to say. Very fast dispatch and delivery, I'd say the economy shipping here is faster than many express deliveries where I paid extra elsewhere...

Great products at competitive prices
Great products at competitive prices. Delivered quickly, well packaged. Bought packing cubes and stuff sacks to use in our camper van to enable good use of limited space. These fit the bill really well.

Perfect
We found the perfect bag, so well done to them for stocking it when no one else did! It came the next day! I had a couple of emails with an extremely helpful customer support guy called Stewart Wright. He was informative, kind and provided the best level of customer support you should be able to get in this weird old world. Thank you :)

Good Quality Packing Cubes
We bought our first Eagle Creek Cubes 20 years ago and love them. So easy to pack clothes by day when on tour so we can pull the cube out for every night without having to hunt for stuff. Also helps to reduce unnecessary items. These are good quality and value for money. Will be buying more

Excellent customer service
I was driving by the warehouse and popped in on the off chance. Though you can't purchase from the warehouse I was taken inside and shown the backpack I was interested in, excellent customer service and the osprey sojourn 60 that I then bought online was delivered very quickly. It is a fantastic wheeled backpack of which my daughter is delighted with as she travels around Australia and Indonesia.
