Yeti is rapidly becoming the gold standard for coolers. They’ve expanded into stainless steel with four insulated items: the Colster for cans (which they can’t keep in stock), the 20 & 30 oz Ramblers and the new Lowball Rambler. The idea with the Lowball is to offer the outdoorsman one mug for all day, from coffee in the morning to whiskey in the evening,
I’m a big fan of Tigerstripe so when I found these at a Sportsman’s Warehouse during a recent trip to Bozeman, I picked them up.
Made from a DWR treated, 30+ UFP, Salt and Chlorine resistant fabric, the shorts are very comfortable. In fact, I’m wearing them right now. There’s a little bit of mechanical stretch. They are board short length and feature cargo pockets on either thigh with snap closures as well as mesh-lined front slash pockets and a single rear pocket. Very comfy.
Meet The Harvest, a new belt, made in Afghanistan and offered by Combat Flip Flops.
Available in even sizes, 28-38, the Harvest belt features an embroidered Afghan flag colored wheat stalk. Why wheat? Because Combat Flip Flops is about empowerment and Afghanistan grew wheat and corn before it was plagued with the poppy. CFF is serious about this empowerment thing. These are sewn by Afghan women who spend part of their day learning to read and the other part learning to sew in order to make a living.

The Fat Tire is a new hiking shoe coming Fall 2015 from Under Armor.
Integrating the Boa closure system, the Fat Tire offers a custom fit at the twist of a dial along with rapid donning and doffing. It also features a GORE-TEX upper with a Cupron infused fabric liner as an antimicrobial. This sits atop a UA Charge mid-sole for cushioning but probably the most striking feature of the Fat Tire is the Michelin sole. The Wild Gripper outsole offers lugs at the bottom as well as up the edge of the sole to improve grip while scrambling up the trail. Coming in numerous colors including UA’s Ridge Reaper camo pattern.
