Ted Weirum is an adventurer, content creator and entrepreneur based in the south of Sweden. Ted inspires his followers on KZread and Instagram by documenting the raw, unfiltered reality and beauty of adventures in nature. In 2021 Ted completed “Fjällfararnas Gröna Band” when hiking the 1140 km distance from Grövelsjön to Abisko in 40 days. Ted is also known as an ambassador for the outdoor company Fjällräven, a result of the many reviews he made in the dawning days of this KZread channel.
Here you'll find reviews on different outdoor gear, clothes and accessories. I also go on adventures and share my story here.

Hey Ted. Im 193 cm tall. Do you think this bag is long enough for me and can I ask you how tall u are
I got a 38 liter Klättermusen Raido backpack, which is exceptionally good IMO - except that its too big unless im gonna use it for longer hikes. I just ordered a 24 liter Klättermusen Brimer, which should be just perfect for 1 or maybe 2 nights out (more if i add the accessory pockets). Im not really a youtuber, but i did recently upload a video called "2 person tent + everything you need to go camping in the 19 liter Osprey Ultralight Stuffpack". I used a 1.2 liter pot as prop to show how much space i had left for food, after i had packed the Zpacks Duplex, a generous cook set (even includes a frying pan), my quilt, a short length inflatable sleeping pad, and a mesh t-shirt. I forgot to pack the 1 liter Katadyn BeFree waterfilter, which would have fit in the mesh pocket on the side - and with a bottleholder on the shoulder strap i would have been able to carry at least one extra bottle of water. The video was just to show what is possible, and ill never actually use this pack for any overnighters. However, the 24 liter pack im getting will be my main pack for overnighters from now on 👍
Would you like to write a blog post about this on my website?
@@TedWeirum I dont have any experience with such things, but it might be fun to give it a shot 🙂 Im not an experienced hiker though. Just a random guy with a "gear fetish", who sometimes goes on overnighters. Im getting the 24 liter backpack tomorrow, and should be ready to give some "initial thoughts" on it pretty quickly. I also got a Hilleberg Bivanorak, which i could perhaps make into a separate section. When used with the Osprey Ultralight Stuffpack, it is no problem to get well into "super ultralight" territory (under 5 pounds). This actually packs so small i could EASILY go on an overnighter with the 15 liter Arcteryx Index 15 backpack. After packing shelter/sleep system, cookset, 2x 0.9l nalgene water bottles, and waterfilter, i still have enough space left that i think i should be able to fit between 5 and 7 packs of "real turmat" backpacker meals 👍
@@TedWeirum Yeah, ill see what i can do. I noted your email, in case you want to delete your message before you get rund down with all kinds of emails 🙂 Thanks for the offer btw. It will be an interesting experience 😁
@EspenFrafalne 👍🏼
For a second I thought you said 'hawks' and not 'hogs', so I was picturing birds running after you with their little feet 😂
This happens to me more often than one would think! :P
The Hilleberg Bivanorak is pretty nice as long as its not too warm outside. It weighs half a kilo, and functions as full body raingear, windbreaker, or a "bivy" that allows you to sit up and cook food or whatever. When used as raingear, it doesnt have as good ventilation as a rain poncho, but still MUCH better than a rain jacket - and it is roomy enough to cover a fairly sizeable backpack too.
yeah, its a great piece of kit! :)
What hoody do you have on?
Which model is it, wxact?
T3
Aldri noe under bibsa!
Även när du cyklar 2 veckor?
Ok, I'm really taking a shine to this Mora Eldris.
Yeah, still my go to till this day
I'd love to know what colour you have, Thank you

Overcome your fear solo EASY carry a magnum revolver and a 8" blade survival knife. Also I always carry a proximity alarm(Ebay < $15) and solar garden light with motion sensor as well as a bright flashlight, first aid kit and mini cherry bomb firework. When I hear a noise I light one and throw it out of my tent if the bang does not scare whatever is outside then it is magnum time.
It does sound a bit stressful. Do you live in a area with a lot of predators?
Hello Ted. Do you have any experience with eco-shell trousers? What are your thoughts? Thank you in advance. Btw I love your channel!
Thanks brother! Most welcome! I have a bit of experience, it depends on what your adventure is, sometimes I find regular rain trousers to do the job just as well, but if your plan is to be in a winter environment then I’d go with the shell trousers!
@@TedWeirum Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Will certainly buy them as I love my eco-shell jacket already. Will keep watching your channel!
@dastreetsnapper7300 thanks brother!
Vad tror du, funkar den som "vilohängmatta" om man är 183cm?
Tänker att det borde funka utan problem!
Gött! Tack!
How does this jacket work in the snow?
So far so good, it’s down to what you do and what layers you got underneath. Great for the wind!
Made in Vietnam! Just looked at both and the build quality is fucked
Really, how so?
TY for this.
My pleasure brother! :)
it would be great if you could do a video on maintenance on the Fjallraven eco-shell jackets, ive had mine for a couple of years but its slowly loosing its waterproofing
I believe there’s an old video there somewhere on the channel about it. I basically wash it with Fjällrävens reproofing
@@TedWeirum Thanks for the response!
@Maverick14198 anytime brother
Always looking out for us! 🤘🏾
Always brother!
Which iPhone do you have? Asking cause I have a new iPhone and couldn’t get it charged in a friends solar panel
That could depend on a number of things!
0:37 "Let's talk about fear", and you flashed but voice continued and somehow sync with your motion, my friend, that's fear.
I had to practice for that one!
@@TedWeirum That little accident is quite good though.
@grexrr1434 wouldn’t be a video of mine if there wasn’t any technical accidents happening!
Have you try kajka 55L....
Yes, it’s great!
Tq...great info...
Anytime brother!
Living in Germoney you don't have to think about things like that. Camping is illegal, except in campsites. Not to mention having a campfire, not even on campsites.
Pros and cons with that too, just like there’s pros and cons with how we have it here. Lots of people who don’t respect the rules..
Got any tips for solid hiking pants and jacket like the ones you are wearing in this video?
That’s pretty much what this channel is built on brother, feel free to check around! :)
@@TedWeirum you are lightning fast my man 💪🏼 can you buy the superfeet trailblazers and just throw them in the boots for added comfort?
@MagnusFXT yes! And yezzzz! ;)
@@TedWeirum got yourself a new sub. Loving your content already!!
@MagnusFXT most welcome brother! :)
So the bag just becomes a cover for the photo insert
Love your Fjällräven videos. Very informative. I was wondering if your friend who was wearing the women's version of the Keb's was also wearing the women's version in the Vidda Pro's? or were these the male version? 5:36
Those were the male version of the vidda pro! Thanks for checking in brother! :)
Final got a pair. Only taken 5 years
No stress! 😎
Love mine. Same colour as well. I bought it especially for the apocalypse. I also think i bought the last available 'medium' in the UK.
Love how we’re picking our apocalypse outfits already! Best be prepared! :)
I worry about crazy people wanting to hurt you since your alone and vulnerable
That makes sense, and things like that have happened. It’s like shark attacks, it seems like the entire ocean is dangerous after an attack. That said, it’s still extremely rare, the chance of you having the time of your life, enjoying nature and learning new things about yourself and your surroundings is almost guaranteed. :) Crazy people exist everywhere so I hope that doesn’t discourage you!
Rencananya saya mau beli jaket ini,sangat menarik.review yang sangat menolong sekali 😊
Hello Ted! I hope you re doing fine! (Sorry if this is a bit unrelated to the video)This daypack looks awesome but I cannot find it anywhere. Maybe it was discontinued by the company? Anyhow, do you have any idea where and if I can find it?
Hey, all good here brother! Where do you live? It could be that it’s been discontinued at your location:/
@@TedWeirum I live in Denmark! I have looked both in online and physical stores but i couldn't find it... Sorry for asking, but do you have any ideas on where to look?
@valonoss Swedish stores, like naturkompaniet.. otherwise it might be discontinued:/
@@TedWeirum thank you bro! I will take a look. Keep up the great work!!
@valonoss no worries! :)
Might be all in the mind but I'm scared of making some eldritch forgotten God of the forest mad and yeah 😂
That’s why it’s important to take extra care of nature! ;)
Runs big or small?
Big I’d say
2024年了，你还在使用这个背包吗？感觉怎么样？
We’ll see if I get my hands on one!
Fan va härligt med lite skånsk bikepacking Ted! Blir inspirerad till att göra samma äventyr i sommar. Allt gott!!
Fan va gott att du tittar Manne! Gör det, det är en riktigt mysig upplevelse! Själv blir det något större för mig denna sommaren! :)
@@TedWeirum så kul o höra!! Något som man kommer få ta del av på youtube?
@mannesturesson2890 definitivt! :)
What jacket is that you're wearing?
It the bergtagen eco shell!
Any tips for the installation of the seatbag harness?
Ah yes, that little fucker! I put everything together first, EVERYTHING, without mounting it on the bike. Once that’s done it’s way easier to loosen the holding screw and slide on the clamps to the saddle. Hope that makes sense!
@@TedWeirum so attach the base to the harness first and mount it to the saddle rails?
@MaxDuke187 yes! It makes it way easier to attach and detach when needed to!
@@TedWeirum Thanks man! I try it now! See ya in three hours 😆
Hahaha
Oh that looks like an adventure 🦁 And much warmer than Fjällräven polar
We came up with Fjällräven SOLAR! ;)
Wann see you in Nepal?
I wanna see me in Nepal too!
Hi Ted! hope You are doing well. I stumbled upon your video... I wonder If you know if the cool caves are compatible with all racks ? or if only compatible with the ones that specialized sells? I have my eyes in it for conmuting purposes on my trek MTB. Thanks in advanced!
I used whatever was on my bike so they should definitely fit most brands!
Jambo!
🙋🏼♂️
put external daisy chain and poles/ice pickles attach on the Keb and you can simplify your product line by removing singi...
Great input!
Beautiful 👌
Truly amazing experience!
When putting op the tent it's way more important to see if the ground is level. NEVER sleep with your head lower then your feet!
Crucial! Great input!
Was wondering if its possible to remove the hip belt? Incase I need a backpack that can be used in everyday life and have the option for the hip belt when going hiking?
It’s not super easy but possible!
Thanks for the informative video! Anyway, you mentioned that you didn’t have any problem to bring this bag as carry on, may I know like does it need to pay extra to bring this as a carry on? I mean like some of the airline, they allowed these kind of bags but required us to pay extra. Or from your experience, you haven’t paid any extra to bring this bag as a carry on?
Hey! Thanks! I haven’t payed for it, but like you say, some airlines are really picky with that.. :/
@@TedWeirum does it waterproof?
@taufiqtmh afraid not!
Dude has the same eyes, eyebrows and forehead when he looks up. Looks just like his old man!
Spot on!
Sure would. I would probably take the 75L sail off my back first though. ;)
:)
I just bought a Mora Eldris on Amazon and I'm really excited to get it. I love your video and I look forward to exploring my new knife here in Texas!!!
Love Texas, let me know how it is! :)
