The collaboration takes the view that you don’t need to buy a shedload of equipment, plan for six months, and get on a plane to the middle of nowhere to have a proper adventure. Instead, invest in some key pieces of versatile kit, courtesy of this collaboration, and you can slot plenty of casual outdoorsing into your weekly schedule.

Let’s take a quick look at the products from the first drop. First up, the S/F Räven Anorak, which takes Fjällräven’s classic jacket, and revamps it with Specialized’s trusted on-bike fit. Waxed G-1000 Lite fabric keeps the wind and rain out, there are four-way stretch panels for ease of movement, and reflective detailing to ensure you’re visible to traffic.

Next, some storage solutions. The Cool Cave is a bright, basic, bucket-like pannier that’s designed to be easy to attach to your bike. It can be used on its own, but probably you’ll want to pair it with one of the three bags that form the rest of the product drop, all of which are shaped to fit neatly into your, er, Cool Cave. The Cave Lid pack slots into the pannier, providing a top cover to protect your belongings from the elements, and with adjustable straps that let you stash extra kit underneath. It can be removed and won as a cross-body or hip bag when you’re not cycling.
The Cave Pack is an everyday rucksack, complete with padded laptop compartment and easy-access top pocket, that can be worn on your back or stashed in a panier. Finally, there’s a simple Cave Tote.Head to Fjällrävento shop the collection.
