Prepare for your DofE with Winfields Outdoors
The Duke of Edinburgh Award, or ‘DofE’ for short, is one of the most respected and trusted schemes in the UK, and is designed to help young people learn valuable life skills through embracing the wonders of the Great British outdoors - which is certainly something we can get behind here at Winfields Outdoors!


However, the recommended Duke Of Edinburgh Kit List is extensive, and, depending on whether you’re preparing for a Bronze, Silver or Gold DofE Expedition, can require equipment for up to four days in potentially wet, windy and cold conditions - which means proper preparation is key.


At Winfields Outdoors, we have this useful section, which includes official Duke Of Edinburgh approved clothing and equipment, plus an array of walking boots, waterproofs, rucksacks, outdoor cooking equipment, safety equipment, sleeping bags and more.

During your Duke of Edinburgh, having the right clothing will make a huge difference - especially in the UK when the weather changes quicker than you can blink, even in the summer.


At Winfields Outdoors, we have an excellent range of approved Duke of Edinburgh clothing for you to choose from. For example, our walking leggings are perfect for hitting the trail - you can move and climb obstacles with ease, and trust that your skin will be protected from scratches, grazes, and the elements.


Of course, arguably the most important piece of Duke of Edinburgh clothing is a proper pair of waterproof walking shoes. Our Hi-Tec Men's Bandera Lite Waterproof Walking Boots are Duke of Edinburgh certified, so you know you’ll be able to tackle whatever your hike throws at you. 


Plus, make sure you have a comfortable trip with our range of Duke of Edinburgh walking socks - we recommend packing an extra pair for emergencies!

Having the right equipment is one thing, but you also need to make sure you have a proper DofE bag to keep everything in.

Or, if you’re looking for a DofE bag to protect your equipment from the wet weather, you should explore the option of a Highlander Dry Sack.
