Vote Orikaso!

Yep, it's your chance to give a virtual thumbs up to ultra-lightweight folding, polypropylene camping crockery :-)

Lightpacking afficionados, here's your chance to vote for the innovative Orikaso ultra-lightweight folding crockery in an online poll at starttalkingideas.com.

Orikaso's Jay Cousins is one of five nominees in the Creative section of the web-site's 'People's Choice' competition sponsored by Lloyds TSB and the very progressive Daily Mail newspaper. The aim of the contest is to 'recognise young people who have turned their ideas into reality'.

Jay has certainly done that, his Orikaso range of folding crockery made from polypropylene - isn't that the same stuff as HH Lifa uses? - is ultralightweight, very durable and brings a touch of civilisation to your outdoor cullinary experience with its selection of bowls, cups, mugs and plates.

Brilliant stuff, more details of the range at www.orikaso.com and you can cast a vote for Jay at www.starttalkingideas.com.

Thanks to OM contributor Charles Ross for bringing our attention to this, your sneaky Daily Mail tendencies have been revealed to the world, Charles ;-)

Takes a little time to work out how it folds. Blue version i have has press studs to help assembly. It works ! but is a bit heavier than i expected. No leaks, no burnt lips, easy to clean.

I have the press stud version Orikaso. It is 5 years old, at least, and no problems what so ever. Much underated piece of kit.
