For hiking and camping gear: Savotta

If you're not from Finland you've probably never heard of them but I'm yet to buy one product from them I'm not satisfied with. They make gear for the Finnish defence forces aswell.

I really like Osprey. High quality and very functional. I used a kid carrier for both my kids and it was great. I also have a day pack from them that I love. My main backpack that I don't get to use much these days is a snow leopard II by North face from 1992 I think. That's a pretty good run.

Savotta is bombproof. I have their Jääkäri S,. M and L, as well as their Keikka 50L and 80L. Used the Keikka duffle bags as check in luggage for international travel, and they're still as good as new. They use stainless steel hardware on the Keikka duffles on the stress points. All their bags are made from 1000D Cordura with a rubberized liner, so they're quite water resistant.
