Whether hiking , biking or heading to the office, some days require a little more than an e-mail and an apple in your pocket. Some days, you need a pack that fits everything you normally carry and fastens to your workstation, but lets you keep your cool while doing so. The Higgs 15, from our Neo Collection, features a high-quality stowaway shoulder strap, a padded laptop compartment that opens up fully, a generous front pocket for a water bottle or your smart phone, an easy top zipper opening that opens with one zip pull, and a huge side pocket that opens with one buckle. An external zippered pocket stores your keys, or anything else you want to keep safe. The large front pocket on the front panel gives you quick access to your smaller items, like the quick reload pocket for quick zipper access to the bladder or hydration bladder.image

This guidebook has all the information needed to walk the South Downs Way, a 100-mile (160km) national trail through the South Downs National Park between Winchester and Eastbourne. The route is described in both west–east and east–west directions, over 12 day-stages.
A guidebook to walking the North Downs Way National Trail, a 130 mile (208km) walk between the high downland of Farnham and the historic city of Dover on the Kent coast, with an optional visit to Canterbury. The route is described in 11 stages, and is fully illustrated with colour photographs and OS map extracts. The North Downs Way is one of the easier national trails with a modest number of steep (but short) ascents and descents and long sections with no noticeable height gain or loss. Several historic sites including Neolithic burial chambers, Roman roads and Norman churches are passed and much of the route follows The Pilgrims’ Way. The area also boasts many literary connections with some of the most celebrated voices in English literature. A separate pocket-sized map booklet is included and shows the full route on 1:25,000 scale OS maps.
