Nordic Outdoor's resident adventurer Harvey is back from lockdown and again writing up his review on Nordic Outdoor's best kit. This time Harvey and his Dad tackle some Munro's with a Tentipi Safir 7 on their back. You can read more now and start planning your next adventure!
Our resident adventurer Harvey takes one of our most popular products out for another rigorous gear test. The Vidda Pro trousers from Fjallraven are a bushcraft staple thanks to their tough material and clever design features. Read on to see how they fare in less than favourable conditions!
Here at Nordic Outdoor we love to see the gear we sell get given a good test in the environment it was designed for. The Amundsen Heroes Turtleneck is one of our favourite items from the last season and our local Action Man Harvey Strachan last weekend put it to the test showcasing it's just as good at the top of a Munro as it is in a cosy Edinburgh pub. Find out how Harvey and the Nordic Outdoor team got on with this iconic piece of knitwear in the latest Nordic Outdoor blog.
Everyone who has read any of our blogs before will know we love wool. Even with our borderline obsession with this natural high-tech fibre, we couldn’t possibly be suggesting that you should wear wool in the Summer. Well that’s where your wrong! Read on in this blog to learn just why wool is the perfect choice for base layers in the Summer months.
The coming of April and the change of the hour means that Spring has finally arrived. Even if the weather seems to disagree.
Last year we were excited to team up with Jonny Stage, founder of Sandgrouse Travel and expeditions.
As we draw closer to the new year, the staff here at Nordic Outdoor are already planning and talking about next years adventures and trips.
Some people like to travel with their friends and loved ones, others prefer to go it alone, but recently more and more people have been taking their four-legged friends on their journeys with them. It’s something we love to see at Nordic Outdoor, and it brightens our staff’s days to get a visit from a dog and their owner looking for some quality outdoor gear.
It’s that time of year again. The evenings are getting shorter and there's a chill in the air. It’s a time for snug fires, good books and sunday roasts!
But once that last roast potato has been finished, you might look for a way to work off those extra helpings. What better way is there than to get the walking boots on and head out into the great outdoors?
The focus of this blog will be 4 fantastic outdoor walks in the area around Glasgow that you can take this winter
The concept was a simple one - to re-trace four of the greatest World War Two escape routes through Europe. Although there were obviously huge numbers of ways to leave occupied Europe during this period by finding a border into a neutral country, of course it wasn’t quite as simple as that.
Autumn is a beautiful time of year to be outdoors. It is a time of change when the leaves slowly turn to a mix of gold and red while a gentle chill starts to flow through the air. Everything feels fresh and crisp. I love being outside during this time of year and experiencing these changes first hand but it can be tricky to know what to wear when the weather is turning and is so unpredictable. That’s why we believe layers and a backpack will be your best friends this autumn.
