Whether you're setting up camp, relaxing by the fire, or embarking on a short trail, our apparel provides the performance you need.
What are the essential apparel for a camping trip?
Essential clothing items for a camping trip include a moisture-wicking base layer, a warm mid-layer like a women's fleece jacket or women's insulated jacket, and a women's waterproof jacket for rain and wind protection. You'll also need a pair of durable and comfortable women's softshell pants, several pairs of wool or synthetic socks, and a warm hat. Having these versatile pieces allows you to create an effective layering system to stay comfortable in any weather.
How should I layer for camping in variable weather?
Layering is the key to comfort in variable weather. Start with a snug, moisture-wicking base layer to keep your skin dry. Add an insulating mid-layer, such as a fleece jacket, to trap body heat. Your final layer should be a waterproof and windproof shell that can be added or removed as conditions change, ensuring you are always protected from the elements.
What fabrics are best for camping clothes?
The best fabrics for camping clothes are merino wool and synthetic materials like polyester and nylon. These materials are superior to cotton because they wick moisture, dry quickly, and retain their insulating properties even when damp. Merino wool is also naturally odour-resistant, making it an excellent choice for multi-day trips where laundry facilities are not available.
What is the difference between camping clothes and regular casual wear?
The main difference lies in performance and durability. Camping clothes are engineered from technical fabrics that offer moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and weather-resistant properties that you won't find in most casual wear like jeans or cotton hoodies. They are also designed with features like reinforced seams and articulated patterning for greater durability and freedom of movement in an outdoor environment.
Are climbing clothes also suitable for hiking?
Yes, much of our camping apparel is versatile enough for hiking, as it is built with the same principles of performance and durability. Items like our technical pants and women's hiking shirts are perfect for day hikes from the campsite. For more demanding treks, you might consider more specialised hiking gear, but for general trail use, our camping collection provides excellent performance.
