Montbell Keswick

The legendary Japanese outdoor company comes to the Lake District

Founded back in 1975 by mountaineer Isamu Tatsuno, Japan’s Montbell have spent the last 50 years making super high-quality outdoor gear that’s built to withstand the rigours of the mountains.

Lightweight and technical—but also particularly wearable, it’s maybe not such a surprise that the brand’s gear has developed a true cult following over here since Outsiders started stocking it a few years back.

And now you don’t need to book a flight to Tokyo to visit a fully-fledged Montbell shop—with a new Keswick store stocking everything from their much-loved Superior Down Jackets (that braggadocious name is warranted here) to folding fire-pits. Nice bear too.

You’ll find it at 7 Market Sq. Keswick CA12 5BJ.
