Kathmandu is a pretty good camping and adventure store. It is a well established franchise with a good range of cool and useful items. They sell adventure clothing, such as waterproof jackets, thermal pyjamas, torches, sleeping backs, camping chairs, tents and a range of backpacks. The store is well laid out and the staff are very friendly providing assistance where you need it.
When on sale, the prices at Kathmandu can be very appealing. I remember picking up a very nice red waterproof jacket three years ago for $99. The only downside is the RRP when not on sale. The same waterproof jacket was $297 when not on sale, which is about $40-$50 more than a comparable item at other camping stores.
Sleeping bags are well priced and on-par with competitors. They stock a great range and have all the specifications clearly labelled on the products, which is quite useful.
If the great outdoors is where you like to go, then Kathmandu is definitely worth a look. They get new items in all the time, and while this is one of their smaller and less stocked stores, you can find a great range of items. read more
