Vintage Camping Gear, how was the camping equipment in the good old days? Is the new super hi-tech outdoor gear the best or was the old camping gear even better?
I dressed up in the old retro clothing, packed an old Haglofs backpack with a vintage Fjallraven tent, my old caravan sleeping bag, a traditional foam isomat and my grandmothers old Trangia stove, and the same food as she served me in my childhood trips?
In this video I’ll bring you along down the memory lane on a tour where I almost only used my old camping gear. I took our old Toyota bus from 1988, our Trapper Canoe from 1970 and headed out in to the wild and felt the smell and taste from the old days.

@Globetrotter-1 Год назад

@@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA It was indeed a lovely video to watch...and each mention of an old item triggered a kaleidoscope of memories of my own. My whole life has been spent travelling and exploring the wilds...and even now, at 65 (next week) I'm still living almost 24/7 outdoors. It was a pity about the problem discovered due to the lack of sound, because I'm sure we would have all enjoyed watching those same video clips and listening 🎧 to your overdubbed or narrative added at a later stage during the post editing.

@loskattos Год назад

I used to own a G66 alu but unfortunately it got lost when I moved from the city to the countryside. I still miss it cause it was a nice tent and with a lot of memories. At one occasion me and a friend of mine went by train and took the ferry from Nynäshamn with both our Haglöfs Skarja backpacks. After renting bicycles in Visby we hauled ourselves out on the road and cycled around in northern part of Gotland during one week. I brought my old Trangia bought from Hobbex in Borås as a gift from my sister (one of the pots now got a small hole in the bottom, got to buy a new 😄) and we slept in my beloved G66 alu from Fjällräven. I remember a had my Caravan Superdown 500 and a simple sleeping mattress. This was in the middle of the 80's and we were two young guys and now we both are around 50+ ☺️

@jefferyneedham1581 7 месяцев назад

@screamingsixties Месяц назад

What a fantastic idea for a video. Memories for me, too, especially from that area. I still use older gear; for example, old cotton tents might be heavier, but when it doesn’t matter as much, the comfort from the material is unparalleled. Trangia never breaks, where I’ve had modern canister stoves spring a leak or something and flame to their death, stranding with no hot food in the middle of nowhere (of course super rare but it’s happened to me).

@dirkthomas1 2 года назад

Very good video! There are actually still hikers that use the frame backpacks such as Haglöfs Grönland regularly, and these hikers would never exchange their frame backpack against a "modern" backpack. When I was cabin warden again this summer I had during four weeks like 10-15 people as guests or just passing by the cabin who had such a backpack.

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA 2 года назад

Yes...and this backpacks are better than some of the new once like my crapy Osprey. 😀 ...but less God than the top products today. /Matti

Lovely to see the G66. I've had two, a blue one and a silvered one. I still have the silvered one and use it sometimes. It's so simple and I love it, except for one thing - lack of ventilation!

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA Год назад

The G66 was a great tent!!! If we look at the tents today, the G66 was a really good one! The tent we got today is, of course, lighter, stronger, and more roomy... but... they can never compete with the memories that G66 gives us back! 😀 /Matti

@tomsitzman3952 6 месяцев назад

As an old canoer and Kayaker. I always taught those new to the water to always float your boat before getting. With one end on the shore the canoe can tip over as your are getting in. I'm still using a lot of my equipment form the late 60's. My old tents are long worn out, but I did find a North Face three person 8 sided tent in the corner of the shelf from the early 80's and it is going back in use. Still using my Swedish Seva 123 stove and a little larger Optimus 00. for power output stoves you can't beat pressurized Kerosene. And my Swiss Sigg nesting pots and fuel bottles and tea pot it is still going strong after 55 years. Flashlights/ torch where so inferior to the new solar LED lights. The good old Jungle Juice. The little plastic bottle said to use one bottle on your skin and a second bottle on your clothing. I still have one from 1975 unopen just to help me remember how toxic it was. Still using my French Opinel folding thin blade kitchen knives. still wearing Swedish Fish Net underwear. And still prefer it to the poly pro stuff. My old Anorak full length to the top of my shoes. It shortened to hip length by folding in half. If you got caught in a storm you could bend your knees and sleep in it. I have worn ot may wind breakers over the years. My favorite wool sweater has a patch on the elbow. i still wear it to out for a beer with friends as well as on the trail. Today for me the trail is bike touring. my body joints have been replaced with titanium. But I keep moving because that is what I have to do.

Fantastic video that took me back in time! I also remember the hikes we did as youngsters with a Fjallraven external frame pack. We used to pack our sleeping bag and mat in a typical grey garbage bag to keep them dry. K-way pullover jackets to keep dry, Esbit fires for the food (cooked in our dad's old military stuff). Ah...good times!

@tobywinyard1106 3 месяца назад

I loved this. The point is would make is i still use a trangia. I think the focus of backpacking these days is to go fast and light. But if on a long path, pass by a local shop, you can grab some real ingredients. You can then cook some proper food and spend time relaxing, the trangia is brilliant at that. Real ingredients, cooked up for real food is unbeatable. These days most “Cooksets” are not cook sets, they are Water Boilers. I would urge everyone to slow down, and enjoy some proper food when on the trail from time to time.

We all wish we could have our loved ones who are gone come visit us again. I spend a lot of time looking for the older quality made products that are still made to that old specification. Such as Filson clothing which still makes same clothing as they did in the 1850's. My old gear from the 80s fortunately didn't survive as it was mostly junk.

@mateuszm6394 2 года назад

There is something refreshing and soothing in this video. It was good to hear your memories. Could you consider using those voiceless footage with a voiceover recorded at home? I am curious what you have said there. I absolutely agree, that repairing equipement should be considered first as long we are able to do it without compromising safety. Anyway, thank you for the trip down the memory lane. May you always enjoy a good cup of hot coffee when you need it!

Thank you for this video and the nostalgia tour of back country camping. I had some of the same equipment and techniques from the 70's and 80's in Canada. I have been thinning out my camping equipment and that of my father. I really enjoyed hearing how you maintained and repaired your equipment. I created some of my own carry bags, bags for cooking kit. I still have a copy of sewing your own camping gear. Those were the days of down sleeping bag sewing kits, before commercial down sleeping bags were available. I used to carry one of those old sewing awls with the wooden handle to do repairs. I like the idea of doing a retro weekend camping adventure and using the old gear and cooking on my Optimus 8R white gas stove. I also used to prepare typical European climbing meal kits of chocolate, nuts, pilot crackers, cheese. The food preparation and meal planning was a big part of any trip. Respect!

This is one of the most enjoyable videos I've seen in a good while. I was moved by how your use of the old gear brought back memories of family. I understand this well. Old memories and stories are always good to carry with us, either in the heart or the pack. I have a similar Trangia and love its simple, clean design: I was attracted to the no moving parts and the quiet. I agree that it is heavy for backpacking, but I use it for car camping and float trips.

The high UV in NZ ate my small alpine tent (ozone hole), I still have it, but it's no longer waterproof. I use it in sommer for nostalgia, again it's the smell that brings the memories.

Thanks for the video! thumbs up just for the beard. I'm born 1981, so i also know the old stuff and i am still using it, specially for my winter trips. I have Haglöfs sleeping bags from 1979, i got from my parents, with 900g down filling but with enough space for 1400g filling, so it was warm down to -37°C i had two times in north sweden. I also have the old Optimus Hiker and the Exlorer. Both are the best stoves in my eyes since the last 50years. I own tegsnäs skies, made for telemark i think, but i use it with climbing skins for backcountry. Also i love my bamboo ski sticks and my wodden segebaden pulka. I totally love wool and Ventile / EtaProof for clothing. My first gear was the UCO candle latern. I got it 1989, i think and still love it. For all these stuff i dont know why i have to take new ones!? But, yeah, i also love the 20g titanium stove, breathable rain cloth, etc.

Back then I could not afford the caravan Nomad. I also still have a very similar Anorak from Norrönna and my old Trangia I still use too all was more simple and basic and true allot heavier and lot more robust. we had a lot of fun back then. thanks for this time machine!!

@megalep7025 2 года назад

Fun to see the old-style equipment. Most gear of today is far better than back in the 1980-90's. I remember only having those sleeping pads, I never really slept then, only if I made a bed of spruce branches beneath it...A new era started with the therm a rest mattress for me. And the sleeping bags took up a lot of space in the pack, and were heavy too. And those backpacks with external frames and not adjustable shoulder straps, poorly padded belts..horrible compared with todays packs. I had Norrøna's models from late 80's and when they started making real padded hipbelts and shoulder straps like on the anatomic models, the external frame packs were a lot better. I tried Fjellrevens top model Gyro, but no way...I found it horrible, thin shoulder straps, not adjustable in heigth..Norwegian big backpack models were a lot better and I think still they are. 30 kg's in the Hagløfs you show in this epsiode would be a nightmare..In a modern Gregory for instance, it's quite comfortable. Trangia is still ok, you can use other fuels in it but it's quite heavy. Most equipment is a lot better today, and more lightweight. The positive side is that more people can manage to go backpacking for a week or so. But yes we buy too much new gear all the time, lightweight stuff doesn't last too long, but it's also something to do with the mentality today.

Nice agility getting into & out of that canoe. Ahhhh HA - using a P38 can opener, never fails. That pot you use to boil water looks like it's older than you. Yes, I recognized the 35mm film canister the moment you showed it. I, too, put the flashlight under my chin to create a scary person. My flashlight held 2 D size batteries & allowed me to have a solid beam or a button I could push to send morse code/SOS. Tents didn't have bath tub type floors like all modern tents & they were heavy. But they did provide shelter & they didn't leak. I had & slept inside a military surplus 2 man pup tent throughout my childhood. Repairing/sewing - do you use the Speedy Stitcher like MEeee? I use it to repair broken stitching along seams on my military pants & gear. I, too, had & carried an exterior aluminum frame backpack which I remember as being a comfortable fit that didn't slip down on my hips. The contents got wet when the backpack material got wet. I still have & carry my Boy Scout pocket knife. I don't think your eye glasses are vintage. Did you shave with a straight razor? - snicker Warm Regards from bone dry Reno, Nevada

Thanks for a lot of nostalgic input. I remember more things when you write this. 😀 My glasses... I have o Another pair from that time. Small rounded... I used them for a picture. I'll put it as a picture on the community later. I didn't use them because I didn't see clear with them anymore. 😕 ...maybe my eyes are little bit vintage! 😀 /Matti

Fantastisk film. Turutstyr fra 70-tallet gir en egen følelse. På neste tur skal jeg ta fram Norrøna ryggsekken fra 1980, lete fram Trangia og Lundhags Luffare. Takk for påminnelsen

@swedishhobo2995 Год назад

Nice one Matti. Not sure you remember this but you and I actually communicated quite a lot some years ago. Last time was about a canoe that I had gotten my hands on. Must be 10 years ago now I guess :-) I got the canoe from a German guy who had made it himself but you thought it looked a lot like an Acron solo canoe. I also used to ask your advice on some husky related stuff from time to time.. Thing is I remembered about it last week while sitting in that same canoe talking to the stupid cam. So.... you actually got a mention then and there on my channel 🙂Stay strong and keep doing what you do! 🔥🔥🛶

That was a good sleepingbag at that time... and it's still better than many of the cheapest once. 😀 /Matti

@vaiki 2 года назад

Härligt Matti! Jag gillade verkligen den här videon. Känner mig väldigt old-style för det är exakt den utrustningen jag själv hade (eller har då den fortfarande ligger eller hänger i magasinen i Vaikijaur). Vi släpade dock sällan med oss Trangia-köken utan hade en sotig kaffepanna och stekpanna i säcken och lagade/kokade direkt på elden... Kul också att se att du vände Trappern uppochner inför natten 😁

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA 2 года назад

Du får plocka fram grejerna och ge dig ut igen. 😀 Det är härligt med alla minnen som fladdrar förbi när doften från tältet letar sig in i näsan och när muskelminnet från att stänga ryggsäcken aktiveras... Kanoten brukar jag vända. Det ät ytterst få gånger jag inte vänder den...men jag tänkte på dig när jag vände den. 😀 /Matti

@vaiki 2 года назад

Ah, jag har ju grejer här men det blir ju lite andra sorts färder här… mera walkabouts på den här sidan längs leder och mycket sällan man övernattar någon annanstans än vid campingplatser. Dryga böter om man eldar nånstans utanför anordnade eldplatser osv… Fast det är ju kul att gå dagsturer också.

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA 2 года назад

I like the G66 tent. I have used it in Sarek 2005 and was my fathers. But you have to be in love to sleep 2 persons. My parents always forced me to bring an orange also. I like the time accurate mustache, why not keep it?

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA 2 года назад

I agree... this tent is a good solo tent but not for two persons... My mustache... I want to be able to come close to Stina again... and then I can't keep it. 😉 /Matti

Today there's better tents. Today illumination light technology is far far better, no comparison. As for frame packs I still think they're a viable choice as is a lot of the older gear. In the states the 80's 90's and 2000's was the dark ages for pots and most cookware for outside. We had very little in the way of choices outside of old vintage boy scout sets, or USGI military surplus. The old Bush pots and some things were difficult to source but Today we live in a golden age of pots and implements for outdoor cooking and stoves. It's incredible

Memories! Great topic! All from the canoe to the sleepingbag. But what about that common green plastic or aluminium water bottle that made the water taste like the material it was made from? Yiak! 🤮 Or the fishing reels that always made a ”skatebo” (Swedish for Magpie nest) i the beginning of every fishing hike? 😂 But maybe You’r a decade to young fore thoose items?

im 44. my late 1990s / early 2000s gear was 38 pounds of space-age goodness. My old boy scout stuff was canvas and steel. You ever tie a cast iron skllet to an external frame pack?

I don’t know if I understand you correctly… my swenglich you know… I never ties anything outside my backpack if it’s not totally impossible to avoid… /Matti

@loskattos Год назад

When packing the two tentpoles together (the two fit together and make a small pack) do you still have the two caps (lid) in rubber? They were used for not letting rainwater in down through both of the poles. The last thing to connect was the tentline in both ends.

@Photojanne Год назад

Jag har ännu kvar min Caravan Arctic (1.6kg) som jag köpte 1975. Den fungerar utmärkt ännu, möjligen kanske inte lika varm som förr. Den klarar dock av minusnätter. Kanotmodellen i videon har också varit i min ägo. Ryggsäcken var en Camptrail Ponderosa och tältet ett ryggås med innertält av Himalayabomull. Mycket har blivit bättre...:)

@gnella 2 года назад

Det var en fornøyelig film. Jeg har kost meg og smilt og ledd flere ganger. Det meste var så gjenkjennelig, vi har hatt mye av det samme utstyret. Om ikke alt var av samme fabrikat så var modellen ganske lik det jeg hadde fra annen produsent. F.eks teltet, jeg hadde et far Helsport som hette "Børgefjell", det hadde jeg helt til noen okser tråkket det sund. Jeg gjorde meg også noen tanker om det jeg hadde i langt yngre år, og alt det jeg har i dag. Man har bedre økonomi nå enn før, det skjer hele tiden utvikling av utstyr, bedre funksjoner, og ikke minst vekt. Men det er også, som du sier, gøy å få nye ting.......og en del blir kjøpt kankje av den grunnen, og ikke nødvendigvis for at kjøpet var nødvendig. I dag er jeg flinkere til å tenke "MÅ jeg ha det, er det nødvendig?" Men men, svaret er noen ganger "nei", men så blir fristelsen for stor. 😔 Vel vel, takk for artig film så ga meg ei trivelig stund.

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA 2 года назад

Det är en balans med utrustning. Självklart ska man byta till bättre grejer och unna sig det roliga med kul nyheter. Samtidigt så för varje grej vi konsumerar så belastas planeten. Skogar huggs, gruvor öppnas, långväga transporter, vindkraftverk byggs i favorit skogen osv... Svårt och fyllt av dubbelmoral. Vill ha pryl men inte effekterna av konsumtionen. 😀 /Matti

@guidon.5413 2 года назад

As a comparison: My MSR tent outer fly has completely deiaminated after 10 years, my 16 year old Arcteryx backpack inside fabric has become sticky and disgusting, the MSR Dragonfly has been replaced by another Dragonfly since it broke in multiple places over time (soldered some, but at some point replaced it), but on the other hand the fuel bottles are still good, as is the Svea 123r, the Germany army utensils kit is still perfect, the MSR stainless pot set is still good. The gear at the time was heavier and less "functional" in some ways, but it lasted a lot longer ...

@JOKKMOKKGUIDERNA 2 года назад

I agree... I know what kind of gear I would choose if I wasn't able to replace it again... 😉 /Matti

@karenfarrell3961 10 месяцев назад

This was such an enjoyable film. Loved how each piece of old equipment brought up memories of loved ones no longer here. I agree that we are too quick to throw equipment away when it could be repaired. When I buy new I try to get gear that has been around long enough that folks can say it is durable and still usable after several years. Nothing holds memories better than old tough stuff. Keep up the good work keep hugging your dogos.
