    Default Scandinavian Outdoor Store

    Just for anyone interested.
    These guys are finally getting round to putting their website in to English
    http://www.scandinavianoutdoorstore.com/
    They stock a lot of interesting kit, especially shelters.

    All we need now is a more favourable exchange rate !
    No links to seller etc......Just ordering my Nokian wellies for the winter.

    Those baker tent/laavu look interesting, just need to translate the descriptions of stuff but the prices seem reasonable.

    Some nice stuff on there, I like that big tarp with the slightly raised walls.

    Yes I thought they looked good too. Like the idea of the silver lining to reflect the heat. Presumably the fabric is OK near fires even though synthetic, as they seem to be designed with fires in mind. Some have mosi nets too.

    The norse word wouldn`t help you as it is a finish (ugrian language) site .

    But I guess it is polyester. The Halti Lavvu pro is made of it, and based on the weight of the Vihe types, it is a similar material.

    Default Hagloffs

    A couple of the guys I work with went to an open training day with Hagloffs last week and the deal they got cut was pretty amazing. They ended up with about £800 worth of gear each for about £250. Skint but very happy boys and a good day out to boot.
    It's beutiful kit - not to my taste these days I'll admit, but the quality and attention to design and detail is almost unsurpassed.

    Did some shopping, a Halti Lavvu (great bit of kit) and the service is 100% OK.
