Good equipment in Mumbai?

elkwood

Hello everyone,
I am new to the trekking scenario. Can you help me with finding reasonabaly good trekking equipment in Mumbai? I particularly require a good waterproof windcheater, a good waterproof pack, a good waterproof tent and a good waterproof sleeping bag. It's hard not to notice the emphasis on "good waterproof". Well, I got really bummed on the last trek I went on. 3 days of almost continuous rain. My windcheater(supposedly waterproof) would start to leak 10 minutes through the rain. My pack, also supposedly waterproof gave way and every thing I carried got wet. Hell even the tent was leaking buckets. Where can I find something reliable?
Cheers.

I don't know your background.... and I am not being judgemental.

Most people in India want "reasonably good trekking equipment" at "reasonably good prices". In my limited experience, people are not willing to pay the price of "reasonably good equipment" and subsequently get bummed.

If you are willing to pay "good" prices for excellent quality, look up http://aviindustries.com/. They offer European quality at lower-than-Europe prices.
