The new Mr Beams LED Camping Lantern is a step up from your traditional battery powered lantern.
This lantern offers serious levels of brightness (Up to 260 lumens) and a long battery life (thanks to the use of LED instead of a bulb).
The pièce de résistance of this lantern, however, is the USB output. This allows you to charge USB devices, such as your iPhone, iPad or any other device with a USB charger. You won't just get one charge out of it either - thanks to the 4 x D Cell batteries in this light, you will be able to charge your devices multiple times and still benefit from hours of light!
Mr Beams LED Camping Lantern should be arriving with us in October 2013, but we've got it up online already so you can check out the features and drool over the images.

Cold isn't it?
Picture the scene, if you will;
You're rummaging around looking for those warm winter socks that have been hidden away in your sock drawer for the last 5 or 6 months, when you eventually get your mitts on them... disaster strikes (ish)... they have worn down to the point that they are less insulating than your summer socks.
To help you avoid such a (tragic) scenario, we're offering 3 for 2 on all Horizon socks. So treat your feet to some snazzy new winter socks today!

It's pretty busy over at our warehouse this time of year, as deliveries arrive ready for Autumn and Winter. Our delivery of the day yesterday was the new range of camping food we're stocking from Beyond the Beaten Track.
Beyond the Beaten Track produce a wide range of nutritious and delicious camping meals and ration packs - perfect for backpacking and outdoor trips. If you'd rather not take a stove with you on your weekend away, fear not, you can purchase some extremely compact and convenient "Flameless Ration Heaters" to use in conjuction with your ready meals. Although, you can also eat the meals cold, if that's what you'd prefer.
We stock two different types of Beyond The Beaten Track Meals:
1) Hot Meal Kits -
These kits include a meal, a flameless ration heater, a spoon and a wet wipe.
See the Flameless Ration Heater in action:
2) Ready Meals -
This is just the meal itself, although a flameless ration heater can be purchased seperately if required.
Camping food from Beyond the Beaten Track is recommended for Duke of Edinburgh (D of E) award trips, and also by the Scout Association.
All this talk of food is making me rather hungry, so these may not be around for long!

A delivery of duffel bags, rucksacks and totepacks from a Swedish company called Fjällräven has just arrived with us in the warehouse.
These aren't your standard bags. Lets just say; If they were a dog, they would be a Pedigree show dog. If they were a car, they'd be a Bentley... you probably get the idea.
With the rucksack and duffel bag market swamped by Mongrels and Fiat Puntos (Yep, I'm still going with the dog/car comparisons), we'd like to offer our customers an alternative. Bags from the other end of the spectrum.
That other end of the spectrum is occupied by a Swedish company called Fjällräven, and has been for quite some time. Since way back in the 1950's when Åke Nordin, the company founder developed his first (wooden!) backpack frame, and sewed a bag out of strong cotton, at the age of 14, using his mothers sewing machine.
Fjällräven has gone from strength to strength in recent years thanks to their continuous product development and improvement of materials, including the G-1000 heavy duty fabric used in their duffels, rucksacks and totepacks.
Essentially, these bags are of the highest quality - thanks to the durable G-1000 fabric and attractive, yet exceptionally hard-wearing leather straps. Buy a bag from Fjällräven and not only will it last you a lifetime, it will only look better with age.

We know how much of a faff it can be packing away your sleeping bag, mattress and tent into their (apparently under-sized) stuff sack once you're at the end of your camping trip. The last thing you want to come up against is a self inflating mattress that refuses to co-operate and climb happily into its bag.
Never fear! Gerry (from our Bourne End store) has made a helpful and informative video to help you pack away your self-inflating mattress without any inconvenience. Not even a single expletive needs to be uttered during the process. It really is that simple.
Take a look and see for yourself.
