Hi, this year's cold mornings and evenings have made me think about buying a down jacket, what do you recommend. I'd buy something I can use both in town and for hills, climbing etc..
Thanks!

Considering buying a 3L water bladder. Never had or used one, so interested in opinions if it's a sensible investment or not for 1 or multi-day trips over rough terrain?

I meant something like this: without membrane
or with membrane

I'm thinking about buying low hiking shoes (for ferratas and other sports activities) and wonder if you recommend shoes with membrane (gore tex) or without? Heard that shoes with membrane breathe worse..

Hello, interested in opinions on these two backpacks 1
2 or which is more suitable for 1-2 day trips, via ferratas, mountaineering.

Thanks for reply!
