The autumn is a wonderful time to be in nature. With the right clothes and equipment, you can get the most out of your adventures.

The best way to have a wonderful experience in nature should be in the order of dry, warm and comfortable. Of course, you also make sure to fulfil the first three without completely renouncing the overall style. With a little experience of both shorter and longer stays under the open sky, however, you quickly know that good shoes for long walks and keeping dry and warm will increase the pleasure of everything else you bring with you for the experience. Below we provide a collection of garments and accessories that we hope will make your trip out into nature a pleasant experience.
The jacket you wear is your greatest protection against the elements. It also needs to be comfortable to move in even when you are wearing a backpack. It should also have good breathability so that you do not get wet from the inside from perspiration.
Even at the beginning of autumn, a hat is always good to have with you. If you are going to stay out overnight, this is necessary if you want to stay comfortably warm. Cashmere is just as good in nature as it is in the urban jungle.
A shirt is always a winning garment, worn on top of some base layers of functional garments to transport moisture away from the body. If you get warm, you can unbutton the shirt and roll up the sleeves.
Your trousers should be comfortable to walk in, withstand wind and a certain amount of moisture. In nature, you often spend a large amount of time sitting on rocks and logs, whereupon reinforcements in exposed areas such as the knees and back are a plus.
Whether you're only going to be out for a few hours or a day, a rucksack that relieves the weight of your packed items well is always the superior choice of bag.
No matter what shoes you wear, the function of your feet always starts with good socks. Always bring an extra pair if you need to dry the first pair over the fire to avoid shoes rubbing against your skin.
For shorter day, a pair of sturdy running sneakers is often a sufficiently stable and good choice of shoes. A water-repellent upper is very practical in wet marshland and moors.
Sturdy, stable boots are the obvious choice if you are going on a long hike. Especially if you are carrying a lot of equipment. Here is a great opportunity to be style conscious when choosing shoes that lift the rest of the functional clothing, even if the function of the shoes is the most important of all the clothes you wear.
A tent becomes your “home away from home”. A vestibule that has room for all of your equipment is always an advantage, as you avoid having this inside the tent. The vestibule is also a place to cook breakfast if it is raining when you wake up.
You will thank yourself if you pack a pair of thin gloves to wear during late nights and early mornings. They can also be comfortable to wear whilst you sleep.
