Brasher

articles

Dale's latest venture has taken him up Scafell Pike. This gave him the chance to get some practice for the Three Peaks Challenge which he is tackling with Owen, Andy, Oscar and Ben on 30th August.

There wasn't much of a view from the top or even the bottom of Scafell as it was in the clouds, however it was a great experience.

When the guys actually come to trek up Scafell Pike it will be in darkness which will make it even more challenging.

You can see more photos of the guys on flickr.

Throughout this upcoming Summer of Love watch out for the brasher Frisbees popping up at Festivals all over the country. (Starting this weekend at the Evolution Festival in Newcastle).

If you get your hands on one, take a photo and send it into us here at info@brasher.co.uk, and we'll put it on our flickr sets. What's more, we'll also feature the best ones here on the blog and send out a free pair of brasher 'Festival Socks' to everyone we feature here.

What's more, you’ll also be in with a chance to win a pair of brasher Calusa XCR multi activity shoes.

So have some great festival Frisbee fun with brasher, and keep those photos coming.

 

How was your walking over Easter?

Our product manager, Philippe Galland certainly caught the weather in the right mood when he ventured all the way up to Ullapool over the Easter weekend with his wife Clare.

You can see his photographs of the trip here on our flickr pages.

And remember if you've any outdoors photography you'd lie to share with us, please email them to Zoe, (zbrookes@pentland.com), and we'll showcase them for you alongside ours.

The Scottish Avalanche Information Service have a flickr photoset up here.

We were really chuffed to discover this blog recently from an enthusiastic brasher wearer.

The more so when we read the posters comments about our boots.

The blog is called 'A walk to the bridge'. And it really conjures up an affection and appreciation of the countryside that only a walker could experience.

What's more it features some terrific 'seasonal' photography and insightful, first-hand observations of the natural world.

We also liked the reference to 'no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing', in this post.

(Where, we are delighted to report, the blogger, on listing the required kit for walking included: "...a pair of Brasher boots. These are essential. I wear mine every day and I treat them abysmally but they never complain and keep me warm and dry.")

 

There's also a further reference to: "and the abysmally treated Brasher boots that I wear most days." here.
