READ: BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO TRAIL RUNNING / THE BEST GADGETS TO IMPROVE YOUR RUNNING
A core challenge on the trail is carrying your essentials without disrupting your movement. Our running backpacks and hydration vests are built for a stable, bounce-free fit, using adjustable straps to create a secure, close-to-body feel. With multiple pockets and options for hydration systems like soft flasks or bladders, they provide organised storage for your water, fuel, and extra layers, allowing you to move with freedom.
For long days in the hills or on technical ground, specialised equipment can make a significant difference. Running poles are an invaluable aid on steep ascents and descents, helping to preserve energy on the climbs while offering extra stability and balance when navigating difficult terrain. For runs that start before dawn or end after dusk, a powerful head torch is a fundamental piece of safety equipment, illuminating the path ahead so you can run with confidence.
