Bien choisir son équipement outdoor : la méthode simple avec les packs Freetime

Choosing the right outdoor gear: the easy way with Freetime packs

Choosing the right equipment can quickly become complicated. Tent, sleeping bag, backpack… you have to think about weight, comfort, durability and budget. To avoid mistakes and save time, Freetime has designed a range of ready-to-use packs , adapted to each type of adventure.

1. Identify your real needs

Before buying, you need to clearly define the type of activity you practice:

  • Occasional camping or family holiday → comfort, space, ease of assembly.
  • Hiking or trekking → lightness, resistance, compactness.
  • Van trip, festival or nature weekend → practicality and quick-to-install equipment.

This step is essential to choose the right package without unnecessary over-equipment.

2. Freetime packages: a turnkey solution

Freetime packages were created to simplify the choice of equipment. Each pack includes a tent, a sleeping bag and a backpack that are perfectly compatible with each other — in terms of weight, volume and use.

The goal: to allow everyone, beginner or regular practitioner, to set off equipped without making mistakes.

3. The tent: your main shelter

The first selection criterion remains the tent . It must be suitable for your camping conditions:

  • Lightweight and compact tents for hikers or travelers on foot.
  • More spacious and robust tents for fixed camping or extended stays.
  • Self-supporting or semi-geodesic mounting for greater stability and simplicity.

4. The sleeping bag: comfort and insulation

The sleeping bag must offer good insulation depending on the expected temperatures. Freetime offers several ranges depending on the needs:

  • Bags 0 to 9 °C : ideal for spring, summer in the mountains and mid-season.
  • Cold weather bags : suitable for the most extreme conditions.
  • Mummy or rectangular format , depending on your comfort preferences.

5. The backpack: a balance between comfort and practicality

A well-fitting backpack is essential for carrying all your equipment. The Freetime models are designed for a balanced use between lightness, stability and storage:

  • 20 to 35 L for one day.
  • 40 to 60 L for multi-day treks.
  • 70 L and more for long journeys.

Freetime packs include a bag that is compatible with the chosen tent and sleeping bag, preventing any imbalance in load.
