Nicely done. My body says go lighter, but I haven't really done it yet. But I like your set up and your approach. I would swap out the sandals for a knife, but that's just me. Thanks for posting this.
Yeah, this lightweight thing can be a mess some times. I hate to carry a heavy pack but a lot of the ultra light stuff just doesn’t do it for me. It was trial and error and being honest to myself for almost every single piece of gear. I totally understand your thoughts on the sandal / knife setup and I guess your way of seeing it makes a lot of sense to most of the backpackers out there. I just never missed a knife on my trips.
I usually dont watch small channels when youtube suggests them but this time you really got me hooked. Great quality content, really helpfully 👍 keep it up
@@hazetheherd2214 I found this sock in Japan and thought it was a gimmick but it is perfect to protect the pot. The Salomon Filter was designed for trail running but I love it for hiking. Thank you for your support 🙌
Great video, if I didn't check I would've thought you had 50-100k subs at the very least. Heaps of value in your brain, 10 years of anything is more than impressive. Look forward to more videos. Subscribed!
Yes, this one is so smart. When I saw it for the first time I though it was a scam and would not work but it works perfectly. Did you try one of those already?
Regarding the ratings on sleeping bags. If they are tested to the ISO rating then for example a O Degree Comfort rated bag will perform the same regardless of brand. If your bag is for example ISO rated Comfort -2 and you get cold and the temperature is above -2 then you need to get a warmer rated bag. Also what you eat before going to sleep makes a big difference, take a small container of olive oil and add some oil to your evening meal.
Yes. You are right. They are comparable and I am super happy that this rating system exists. I am just a warm sleeper and need a warmer sleeping bag :) The food is a great tip and if I remember correctly fat will keep warm for way longer than sweet food. Oil should work great. Thank you!
Hi, first, nice content. Thanks for sharing! I have a question on the rain jacket. The Haglofs looks good in terms of impermeability and I can get it at a good sales price. What is your feedback with regard to the breathability?
Unfortunately it is not breathable at all. It is just one layer of waterproof material. If you want something breathable you should look for a rain jacket with a goretex layer or something similar. I bring this jacket because it is super light and compact and I don’t need it very often. If you wear it during exercise you might probably get sweaty and wet from the inside.
Amazing video! Keep up the good work! :) A question to the Forclaz minimal edition 1P tent: I would really love to buy the tent, but the white color is blocking my buying choice. Why white? I know they did it to save some emissions. But using an all white tent doesn't really fit in the nature. Especially in the woods or when you want to stealth camp :D What is your experience with the color? Did you got into some problems? Like get caught wild camping? I think I'll just keep using my tarp with an elephant skin from the Germany Bundeswehr as a mattress shield. Greets from Germany!
Yes, the white color is quite special but I actually like it a lot. For stealth camping it might not be the right choice though, unless you are planning to camp in snow :) For me it is not an issue as I don't need to hide while camping. As far as I know Decathlon is thinking about another color but I have no idea when and if it is going to happen.
@@tommy-vella Thank you for your answer! Yeah, the snowy argument is a good one :D Sadly i have to hide while biwaking here in Germany. Sometimes sleeping in the woods is a gray zone in the law. But most times its not. Okay, that’s sounds nice! I hope that they wont make us wait for long time!
Such a good video! I just got a 65L Osprey Atmos AG because I wanted to invest in something I can use for longer trips however I will be doing a lot of 2-3 nights. Do you have to pack your pack all the way full to balance it out or do you think I can get away with packing it half way for trips.
Hey Ethan, I guess you will be totally fine and balancing your pack should not be a problem. Try to pack your heavy items like your tent poles and your cooking system close to your body and use the compression straps. If the pack is not filled to the top it might be wise to not put too much stuff into the top compartement. Just try it out at home. It is always good to have a pack that is too big rather than too small. The only downside will be that your pack is a little heavy for a 2-3 night trip but thats totally fine I guess. Enjoy your adventures!
My exact model is NOT waterproof. The water proof version is called Vectiv Enduris III FUTURELIGHT. It is the exact same shoes as mine but with a build in water proof membrane. The colorway will be a little different though.
These ones are not. I get quite sweaty in water proof shoes. Especially in summer. For fall and winter season I have got a water proof pair of trail runners: The North Face Vectiv Futurelight
I find it funny how the smallest creators have the best videos on gear topics.
Just trying to be helpful and honest. Thank you 😊
So true! Good video. I’m going to look into his pack now.
me and my mate are playing a bush camp during the Christmas holidays so this guide is amazing for gear, thank you
Nice! Have a great trip! 🙌
Great video! I had doubts when this showed up in recommendations, but gave it a go and turned to be very cool!
Thank you! I am happy that you gave it a chance :)
Wow! Very impressive video. Clear and concise. Fluid sequences. And most importantly, really solid information.
@@things_marc_does thank you so much for the feedback!
This is by far the best vid for beginners that i have ever seen.
That is so nice to hear! Let me know if you have got any questions.
finally someone who uses the same pillow as me! great choice
Yes 😅 I am so happy with this pillow. Are you 100% happy with it? I am not shure if there might be an even more comfortable pillow out there.
Great informative video! Thank you so much for sharing it with us all! Much appreciated!
I am happy to help and happy to have you here!

i think the neatest thing on your list was the stove fuel transfer. that is unironically genius.

Are those NF shoes waterproof? I saw them on their website and they say they are, but finding the same colourway on other stores they don't mention it

Are your trail runners waterproof? Does it matter anyway? Love your video from Iran

U should try barefoot boots
Maybe I will! Can you recommend a good pair? :)
