Torrential rain. It must be festival season. If you’re planning a long weekend at a music festival or just any outdoors experience, then good outdoors gear is essential for your very survival. A little dramatic perhaps but there’s nothing worse than being caught out when all you have is a tent to hide in away from the elements. Millets is one of several outdoors stores in Liverpool city centre that you will find such essentials as waterproof clothing and walking boots. I didn’t find them very expensive but this will depend on what you are after but the assistants seem to take your needs as well as budget into account should you ask their advice. This is worth doing as they come across as knowing their stuff from experience.

Most of the time, you will not be disappointed since the items you do buy such as clothes are guaranteed and designed to last for many years. The store also sells equipment for camping and footwear for climbing. Footwear is generally sturdy just by observation, and you can tell that Millets has no issues with all round quality.
