The Universal Pack

Wildish (Bearmade Ltd)

£85

Minimalistic. Highly water-resistant. Made to last. We’ve been making and refining this pack for the past 6 years. We designed it for fishing but it's being used all over the world, for all kinds of things, and has been tested to its limits. The idea for the bag came from a frustration that fishing is so often overcomplicated, particularly the kit, so this pack is designed to take just the things you need and have them close to hand. Take less, fish more.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as BEARMADE LTD, number 09486544. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Stated by the company: "We do all this from our little shop in the Yorkshire Dales." — names a location but no site or process, so this corroborates uk_hq more than operations. Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
