The Travel Kit List: Fall Foraging Gear for 2021
7. Niwaki Tokusen 165 mm pruning shears
Hand-forged from carbon steel, these ergonomic Japanese-made shears are small and light enough to fit in the palm of your hand, yet sharp enough to make quick, clean cuts.

In addition, the gloves flare at the cuffs, helping to protect against snags and punctures. £ 17.99.

With the enhanced comfort of an OrthoLite foam sockliner, these hiking boots combine excellent support and excellent cushioning with a range of essential hiking accessories: they are 100% waterproof, have improved air circulation, excellent grip on wet and dry surfaces and are very durable. £ 161.
