ROBENS ZIGZAG SEAT £3.29

Sitting down to take a break, have a cuppa and absorb the view can be one of the great joys of a mountain journey. Getting a wet or numb backside is not. Sure, you could sit on your pack or jacket, but when the perfect solution is so cheap, light and comfortable, why would you not invest in a sit mat like the Robens ZigZag?

VERDICT You won’t even notice it in your pack, but your buttocks sure will on the ground – and they’ll be grateful for it.
