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.

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.
Editor and Designer Desk Carry
Ok, so my desk doesn’t “carry” these items anywhere. But to kick off 2022, I wanted to share a little bit of personal insight into my daily items you don’t often see…
Blaze A Trail
The Trail Blazer patch is about carving out a new path where there isn’t one. Oh and orange is slowly taking over my kit.
Every Winter Day Carry
Often EDC posts are not items carried every day. It’s a tag that is often attached to just some nice gear, and I even do that myself. However this is truly my everyday carry, nothing added for show, just what is always in my Bullet (or SHADO) and pockets – every day!
Black and Blue
In this loadout I’m sharing about some of my favourite items that have weathered the tests of time, plus a couple that have just started on the same journey.
Urban Autumn Walks
Here is my new every day (twice-a-day!) carry. The Pack Config family now has an amazingly effective (if not a little nippy) reminder to get outside regularly!
Editors EDC Photography Kit
This was my loadout for a product photography and vlogging on the way to work carry.
Rebel Mission to Endor
Here’s a quick loadout of items editor Nat Wagstaff imagined would be helpful for joining rebel assault on the second Death Star.
Loadout: Hard Wearing Kit
I like gear that lasts. Here’s a collection of items that have proven themselves through testing, or are newer pieces of kit that are doing well so far.
Loadout: Photo + Vlogging Kit
Since starting our YouTube channel, I’ve purchased a few pieces of extra kit to add to my regular camera set up.
