In reply to UKC/UKH Gear:
For all things outdoors and Scouts I've relied on Regatta for their really good kids selection of clothing. It's functional, it works well, and best of all it's proven cost effective while they still refuse to stop growing!
The biggest spend has really been on boots. For certain activities we have used wellies as they are good for almost anything. Scouts however quite rightly insist on walking boots for most things and these are grown out of very quickly. Non-brand, almost throw away price (they have gone to charity shops or the Scouts boot box) have proven the best buy.
As the eldest looks to more challenging activities Mountain Warehouse kit is proving to be good investment.
