With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

If you have a wardrobe of expensive technical outdoor clothing you want to be sure that it is working at it’s absolute best when you are active in the mountains. There is no point, for example, buying a waterproof jacket bursting with breathability if the garments you are wearing underneath are not transporting the sweat from your body to pass out into the atmosphere.
Sweat is natural temperature regulation allowing our bodies to maintain a safe temperature through evaporation while exercising or in a hot climate. Effective sweat management starts from the fabric next to your skin…….
Why do base layers have to be close-fitting?What do “wicking” and “moisture transfer” mean?Will a baselayer make me sweat less?What’s the difference between baselayers and thermal underwear?How do I choose between synthetic or natural fibre?Do I just need a baselayer for my body, or hands and feet too?What do I do when my baselayer smells so bad I don’t want to use it anymore?
Top Tips To Make The Right Choice…..
Baselayers are the foundation of your technical clothing system.
Regardless of all the technical talk above the best baselayer is the one that fits your body shape comfortably and without creasing or rucking. Some will have a longer body length than others, some may have longer arms – the only way to know is to come into the shop and try them on.
