“It is too easy these days when needing a bit of kit, to go online and search e-bay or some ex-military surplus supplier, and buy some tat on the cheap. I have done this myself, but only when I am needing gear for gardening or forestry work where quality is sacrificed to dispensability. When I require equipment which know by experience is always top quality, I go to Survival Aids. In my 40 years in civilian mountain rescue I found it prudent to buy my hill boots from SA, this and any other bit of kit which I did not want to let me down. My default or go-to for top notch equipment and gear is Survival Aids. Long may they trade!”
