Getting Back to School Ready with Simply Hike

Getting Back to School Ready with Simply Hike

I don’t know about you, but I’m a planner. If there’s an opportunity to get something done in advance, I’ll take it. So today, I’m going to write about my recent experience getting back to school ready with Simply Hike. “But the Summer holidays have only just started!”, I hear you. But, I also hate shopping. I hate town centres, high streets, shopping malls. All of it. And I especially hate them at the the end of August, with what seems like every Mother within a 10 mile radius trying to drag their reluctant cherubs into their local branch of a very popular shoe shop. It’s almost as bad as store shopping at Christmas time, almost but not quite.

So, when I want to get the back to school shop done swiftly I turn to reputable online stores that can deliver everything I need to my house within a reasonable time frame. That’s where Simply Hike come in. Firstly, I enjoy using their website. It’s not clunky at all and the product images are always super clear. Two things that sound like simple requests, but in fact there are a fair few household names that appear to struggle to achieve this. Secondly, I appreciate that delivery is free over £50. It’s a small gesture that means a lot to shoppers like me. I like the way I don’t have to  go traipsing around all over the internet looking for a free delivery code. If you’re looking to make a big purchase, there’s also a 0% finance option for purchases over £150.

Established in March 1995, The Simply Group launched its first website simplyscuba.com in 1996 and they’ve been at the forefront of online retail innovation ever since.

Buoyed by the continued success of Simply Scuba they launched Simply Hike in the summer of 2006 and it rapidly became a key player in the hiking and outdoor clothing market. They’re always looking for better ways to help you research and buy your kit online by harnessing the latest technology with their high standards of customer service. Located just outside the fashionable and picturesque town of Faversham in Kent, they operate their showroom, customer services centre and warehouse from their large modern industrial premises.

From Simply Hike, we were looking for an Osprey rucksack and a parka jacket. Both were super easy to find and very reasonably priced. Just perfect back to school items. That will no doubt live up to their reputation as brands that can go the distance. The Osprey Rucksack we chose is ideal for hiking and general outdoor adventure. This all adventure bag is designed for comfort out in the hills. It also has an adjustable back panel for the perfect fit and mesh covered foam that allows airflow. Ideal for the fast paced days out that we’ll no doubt go on.

I can’t recommend Simply Hike highly enough. Everything from their prices, to their customer service and their delivery times. Exceeds all expectations, try them out for yourself this back to school season!
