Equipment you need to bring for caving
 
Synthetic Clothing
For going down a cave we recommend that you wear a top and trousers made from synthetic materials. Try to avoid wearing cotton clothing, as synthetics will keep you warmer if they get wet – We advise not to wear jeans, as it will not be comfortable when they get wet etc. Make sure to bring a change of clothes for wearing on the surface and pack a couple of towels also.
Synthetic clothing can be purchased from Sports Direct, Trespass, or Discover Outdoors (Scout Shop NI).
 
Wellington Boots
The ideal caving footwear. They provide excellent grip and durability for clambering through a cave.

Avoid a pair with steel toe caps as they are prone to giving cavers foot injuries.
We recommend a cheap pair of Dunlop wellies from ScrewFix or Sports Direct.
 
Gloves
Keep your hands warm and snug with a pair of these. Gloves with rubber palms will help you grip onto cave surfaces and keep your hands well protected.
We recommend a cheap pair of builders gloves from ScrewFix 
 
 
Knee Pads
Some cheap ones are available online and places like sports direct etc.. We really do recommend that you have a pair
 
Equipment we can let you borrow
 
Helmet and Lamp
These are probably the most vital part of a cavers equipment, not only will it save you a multitude of Knocks and scrapes, it will help light your path whilst navigating through the cave system.
 
Caving Oversuit
An overall layer of warmth and protection from rough surfaces and muddy crawl spaces. We have them in all sizes and they’re easy to slip in and out of.
