I have done my best to identify everything Bear Grylls uses in each episode. Bear is always on the move though, so if you spot something that is not covered here, leave a comment and I will track it down. Start with the gear guides Most of what people ask about is already answered on one of these. Each guide lists every item across all seven seasons of Man vs. Wild, which episodes it turned up in, and whether you can still buy it today or need the closest current match. Boots and shoes Every pair across all seven seasons. Mostly Merrell, and the Chameleon is the one people recognise. Trousers and shirts The Craghoppers Bear Grylls Survivor and Kiwi lines, episode by episode. Backpacks The pack changes more than anything else he carries. Every one is listed.

Jackets and fleeces Arc’teryx and Mounta...

Bears Gear: Bears Flint / Fire Steel

By Mrarfarf

Throughout Man vs Wild, Bear Grylls rarely leaves without his "flint". This is actually what is also known as a "Fire Steel". The Specific model Bear prefers is the "Swedish Firesteel - Army Model" made by "Light my Fire". Available to buy at Amazon.com Info via Amazon:  Originally developed for the Swedish Department of Defense, Swedish FireSteel is a flash of genius. Its 3,000°C spark makes fire building easy in any weather, at any altitude. Used by a number of armies around the world, Swedish FireSteel's dependability has already made it a favorite of survival experts, hunters, fishermen and campers. It has also found its way into cabins and backyards as a fool-proof way to light stoves and gas-barbecues. Also Known As a Swedish Fire Steel Amazon Associate.

Over the different seasons, Bear switches brands and models of backpacks often.  While he's now using his own "BearPac" line of backpacks by CragHopper (Pictures above, available in the UK only), he's used Northface, Osprey, CragHopper, Gregory, BackCountry and other brands before. This post lists all known backpacks or if they aren't manufactured any longer, their closest equivalent.   Here are the backpacks used in Season 1: Gregory Targhee: BackCountry Stash BC: Gregory z25: BackCountry Stash: Amazon Associate.
