THANK YOU!

We at Mahers Outdoor would like to thank all our valued customers for attending last night. The night was a huge success with people coming from wide and far to support the shop. We look forward to supporting the hillwalking community in Cork and beyond. Go raibh míle maith agat!

Meindl super wide fit range.

Word. For those of you with especially wide feet, we now have a decent range of extra wide fitting Meindl boots - With these 3 models, we can cover most requirements. Classed as the "comfort" range, they have a wider base with a more width in the area where the big toe and the little toe sit as well as having more volume overall.

Right - Meran Gtx

The upward bent at the front of the boot is also more pronounced to lessen resistance and improve heel-toe walking. The one other major point is the cork footbed which gives a good level of support (not so much that it is counter productive though) as well as great breathability and moisture control.

In stock now are the Bernina Gtx (hiking) , Meran Gtx (hiking/trekking) and Dovre Extreme Gtx (Hunting).

North Face Sale (mens and womens)

Yo yo yo, check me now one time.

As we all know, the Irish climate presents us with issues - mainly one of lots of water falling from the sky - so, our jackets need to be waterproof, properly waterproof - Also, it can get quite cold in winter so we also need a jacket that is warm. Over the years, it's often been hard to find a jacket that is all these things in one.

the answer, however, is simple - the style of jacket is called a 3 in 1 - It has a removable fleece zipped into it so you can wear that on it's own, the waterproof shell on it's own or both together - three different jackets (sort of).

We currently have a couple of fine examples of this type of jacket on sale - The North face Brigatta Triclimate jacket down from €199 to €159.20 - that's as good as getting a free fleece as the outer part of this jacket is worth that on its own. We have this in 3 or 4 different colours.

We also have the Atlas Triclimate, a slightly fancier version of the 3 in 1 with a full 200 weight fleece rather than the slightly lighter fleece found in the Brigatta.

We also have a host of other north face kit in the sale (Mens and Womens) so come on down and grab a bargain.

Not going to go on with loads of pictures and stuff so just to say that there is Mammut and Columbia stuff in this sale too and it's dafto cheap.

Plastic bag and boot trick!

This is not the most amazing trick in the book, but it can get you in and out of your rain pants in seconds! If your rain pants don't possess any access zips on the legs then you can use a plastic bag over your boots to ease access. The texture of the plastic over the boot will allow your leg to slip through! Thats right, no more fumbling around in the wind and hopping like a grasshopper. You can use the plastic bag afterwards for boot storage in the car. The other option is to purchase a rain pants with side zips like our best selling "Deluge" rainpant from Berghaus for a mere 60euro!!!

Happy Valentines!!!

Violets are blue,

Galtymore and a Happy new year!

Nothing beats a good auld hillwalk in the early morning to shake off the cobwebs! Before I started work today i headed to the Galtees in Tipperary. The day started with a walk up the trail to the scenic Lough Curra. We continued over Galtymore with fantastic views all around, then onto Galtybeg and down to the car. If you would like any information on the walk then pop into the shop and ask for Brian!

We at Mahers Outdoor would like to wish all or customers a happy new year and we look forward to seeing you soon!
