Climber call-out!

The BMC and GB Climbing want to learn more about climbers and their journey and have launched the Your Climbing Counts survey to hear EVERY climbers voice.
The project aims to understand the needs of ALL current and future climbers both indoors and out.

This is a collaborative project and information will be used to inform how to support and develop the sector in the future.

Take some time to complete the survey and you can opt in to a prize draw to win from a variety of climbing goodies including a £500 JOE BROWN AND THE CLIMBERS SHOP VOUCHER!!!!!!!

Ooooooooh. Seriously nice - it's like wearing a sleeping bag.

Ultralight, redefined.

Born from a desire to improve heat retention without adding unnecessary weight, the new Mythic G jacket combines 1000FP European goose down and a heat-reflective TILT lining, to offer a ground-breaking warmth-to-weight ratio for your fast-paced missions in freezing environments.

With optimised breathability, sleeve articulation, and protective down filled hood, this jacket is built for hard working ascents and freezing summit transitions.

However, we do not advise to travel❗️

The weather may be minging but when it’s 5 degrees in the valley that can only mean one thing on the tops…….

If you haven't listened to our Outdoor Gear Chat podcast with Paul Pritchard - take a listen. Following his journey from world class climber through his life changing accident 25 years ago and to his life today as an adventurer, author and climber is inspirational.

Due to my disability any physical activity is hard. Hence my first ascent of a traditional rock climb in 26 years was a battle.
