Wanted Light weight camp gear, tent, gaiters and pack

[sozzy]

Hi all,

I'm heading off to Tassie for a camping holiday. If anyone has a lightweight tent suitable for Tassie conditions I would love to hear from you. Im also in need of two sets of gaiters one boot size 8 ladies and a 10 mens (not too sure about the sizing of gaiters) would prefer both to be calf height. I would also be interested in a backpack preferably no larger than 50 - 60 ltrs that would suit walk in bush camps. Im trying to do this trip on a budget so would not be looking at spending big bucks

Thanks to anyone who may be able to help out

Obviously there is lots of equipment on the forum that may help you.

I see your location is listed as Tassie. Perhaps you should check out Recycled Recreation in Hobart? https://www.facebook.com/pages/Recycled-Recreation-Tasmania/353415111423719

I don't know anything about them other than I recently sold my old Backpack to them

I think gaiters are more about shin length than shoe size.

This shows a size chart relative to shoes but also states as a "guide only"

I find my XL ones a bit tall but ok with a size 13 boot.
My wife has Small with a size 8 foot.

Have a look at my ads in market square section. I can post to tassie if needed
