This month's Trends
This month is all about investing in bigger ticket items that will last—from child hiking carriers that will likely see a price increase later in the year like GPS watches.
You love getting outside with your dogs! We’re seeing trends in dog life jackets and dog GPS collars to keep your four-legged friends safe while on the water or backpacking
It's all about the small luxuries! From good-tasting electrolytes to backpacking and camping meals that actually taste good, you are living the good life.
When it gets hot, we need what is underneath to stay dry. From our best women's hiking underwear and best men’s hiking underwear to good ol’ hiking socks for our feet, outdoors people know that sometimes it doesn’t take much to put a big smile on our face when outside.
