While I was researching packs for a 100km endurance hiking challenge, my interest in how we organise our gear gave birth to Pack Config, a place that inspires its readers to improve their own packs. What I carry, either daily or out on a hike, is constantly being refined as I discover new methods and products.
The unpredictable UK weather provides a constant challenge for my packing decisions. I enjoy every form of walking from woodland discovering with my wife and son, to long distance hiking across the local Downs. I had the privilege of deploying with Team Rubicon UK at the end of 2015 as a photographer/mud-shoveller and was humbled and impacted by the calibre and attitude of the whole team. I also take every opportunity I get to pursue my bushcraft techniques.

What’s In My Pack? Wild Adventure Carry
Check out my essentials for a local woodland adventure. When shooting new products in the wild I love to set up a camp to work from, here’s what I carry to help me do just that…

What’s In The Box? The Combo Deck!
The finest finishes and real attention to detail make this an exquisite piece that demands to be on display.

Hacking down film + photo kit!
Re-packing my photography and video equipment to drastically reduce its size. By using a streamlined pouch it can adapt more easily to my pack choice.

A Kickstarter Journey…
A while ago Pack Config supported a Kickstarter that wasn’t run well. When I visibly back something, either financially or through promotion, our reputation goes on the line too. Since then I’ve not backed another…

Unpacked: Woodland Adventure Kit
These are the items I regularly pack when heading out to our local woodlands, I’m surprised it took me this long to put them all in the same pouch – thankfully I now only have one thing to grab!

(Almost) Every Day Carry
When we have a drop coming up I love to come up with creative carry configs to show off the concept behind the designs. However, this week I’m sharing my EDC as it looks every single day…

Bullet “Topo” Bill
Here is my simple carry for having all my essentials ready, plus some Nintendo based entertainment when needed. Of course, the GORUCK Bullet features our new Topo Bill patch too!

Terrain Recon
Finally got the chance to get out into some family owned woodland for a bit of terrain investigation…

Camera Kit Upgrades
We recently pulled the plug on some camera upgrades and as a result here is our new set up for photography and video.

Fieldcraft Loadout
With our latest MDA collaboration being titled Fieldcraft, I’ve been thinking of items I’ve used to spend an extended duration in the field.
