A SMALL, OUTDOOR SPECIALIST RETAILER, OWNED BY A PROFESSIONAL PRODUCT TESTER
Why We Support Highlander
Highlander Outdoors – A Local Brand We Trust!
Highlander Outdoors is based just a few miles away from us in Livingston, Scotland, and has been a trusted partner for almost a decade.
Over the years, we’ve used their products ourselves on countless outdoor adventures, and we’ve come to rely on their excellent quality and fair prices.
The team at Highlander provides us with top-notch customer service and support, which has earned them a place as one of Wylies Outdoor World’s “Core” Brands.
As a proud supporter of local and UK businesses, we’re excited to continue our partnership with Highlander.
Over the last ten years, Wylies Outdoor World’s owner, Drew Wylie, has personally tested hundreds of Highlander products in real-world conditions. This hands-on experience gives us the confidence to offer their gear to you, knowing it will stand up to your own outdoor pursuits.
Scottish midges and mosquitoes make outdoor activities miserable without proper protection. Insect repellent alone isn't enough for extended exposure, and bulky head nets impede vision and comfort. Highlander Mosquito and Midge Micro Head Net provides complete face and neck protection with ultra-fine mesh that doesn't impede vision.
The ultra-fine polyester mesh blocks even the smallest midges while maintaining clear vision. The elasticated neck closure creates a secure seal around your neck, preventing insects from getting inside. Large enough to fit over most hats and NATO approved for military use, ensuring reliable protection in demanding conditions.
This head net works perfectly alongside other insect protection methods for complete coverage. For comprehensive insect protection, browse our insect repellent sprays and protection and summer camping essentials. Essential for bushcraft and outdoor survival activities.
Comes with compact stuff sack for easy packing and storage. The lightweight design adds minimal bulk to your outdoor kit while providing essential protection. Quick and easy to deploy when insects become problematic during outdoor activities.
Essential for camping, hiking, bushcraft, and any outdoor activity in midge and mosquito areas. The olive green colour blends with outdoor environments while the durable construction handles regular field use. For outdoor safety and health, consider our first aid kits and medical supplies and camping hygiene and washing kits. Check our camping hiking and outdoor equipment for more essentials.
Kombat UK offers an almost identical Micro Mosquito Midge Head Net with the same ultra-fine mesh and elasticated closure. The only differences are the brand and sack colour - both provide identical protection and functionality, so choose based on your brand preference.
NATO approval ensures this head net meets military standards for insect protection. The ultra-fine mesh construction provides reliable protection without compromising visibility or comfort during extended wear.
Wylie's Outdoor World owner Drew has dealt with Scottish midges for over 20 years of outdoor adventures and knows the importance of proper head protection in midge-infested areas. He understands which protection methods work best for different outdoor activities. For advice on insect protection, contact us for help.

A Personal Shopping Experience
When you shop with us, Drew, the owner, will personally assist you. We offer a shopping experience focused on quality, advice, and service, all within a reasonable timeframe.
Wylie's Outdoor World's owner 'Drew' handles all returns, and exchanges personally.
We offer a 30-day (from the date of purchase) returns and exchange policy. You may return most new, unopened, unworn, and unused items within 30 days of your order date for a refund or exchange. However you must contact us within 14 days to inform us. (Some items in our store are non-returnable) such as used batteries, and underwear for example. We must be able to resell a product again as brand new.
If you need to return an item, simply log in to your account, view the order using the "Complete Orders" link under the My Account menu, and click the Return Item(s) button. Please let us know if you would prefer a refund, or an exchange. Drew will confirm your selection and send you an invoice (If applicable for exchanges) and await your return to arrive with us.
Please, allow Drew 3 to 5 days to process your returns or exchanges. However, the "turnaround" time is often faster than this.
We ship to UK mainland predominantly. However, we can ship internationally on request.
We use DPD exclusively for all UK orders as standard. We offer free shipping on all orders over £100, orders under £100 are charged a £5.99. (Some long, or overly heavy/large items will vary in shipping cost)
Drew also packs customers orders personally. We ask you to allow 2 days to process orders. This allows Drew adequate time to process orders, be the sole point of contact for all our customers, and manage our website. On average delivery time is 3 to 5 working days. However, Drew is quite efficient. Orders are often processed and delivered in a shorter time.
