Casio knows that adventure wrist machines like their PRO TREK PRG340 are gonna get the most abuse of almost any piece of gear on your body. That’s why they made this watch tough. They know also that you need all the beta for whatever adventure you’ve chosen easily accessible. That’s why they made it with […]
There’s something primal in fire, life-affirming, intense, powerful; it’s why Pit Command’s Commander is a necessary tool for not just your backyard bonfires but for your very humanity. We’re talking a medieval-looking, axe/hook/spike mini halberd supertool thing for controlling the raging conflagrations in your fire pit. There are a lot of pieces of outdoor gear […]
There are few outerwear bangers that hit as hard on all aspects as the La Sportiva Wild Down Jacket. Hardly a time have I worn it without getting compliments on the look. It insulates better and feels warmer than about any other micropuffy I’ve worn, with a next-level durability refreshingly old school. Which goes perfect […]
Let’s start with some real talk: RIDE’s A-8 Bindings are the result of 30 years of making real gear for real shredders. This is a binding that’s adaptable to any condition, delivering premium performance at the bottom of the premium binding pricelist. I mean, this is a foot locker every bit deserved of its gold […]
If you ever had some twisted tryptophan-fueled dream where a swaggy pant marries an indomitable bib, Flylow’s Baker Bib would be the child of that union.

The lining makes it so that you’ll never freeze, with an outer shell that can take all that fall precip. Throw in their time-tested camo brought to you by Mossy Oak and […]
When I started noticing backpacks with openings that reminded me of “Stranger Things” demigorgon mouths I was intrigued; when I saw Mystery Ranch had long been rocking it and incorporated it into their new and striking Coulee 25, I knew this could be the mythical midsize solution I’d long been seeking. I’m talking pockets and […]
Somewhere along the border of Idaho and Montana and Idaho, where the Continental Divide pushes into its final state in the US, there’s a little mountain range called the Centennials. It’s one of the few that runs east to west, and it’s also just far enough from airports and people and everything that brings in […]
At first glance it might seem surprising that of all the mountaineering/snowboarding/climbing gear I test, the lightest and warmest piece of gear is hunting brand Sitka’s Ambient Jacket. It makes sense because no single activity can throw literally every type of weather at you, not to mention the fact that you might be moving at […]
