Columbia’s Thermarator™ Fleece Glove are soft and super warm, quick-wicking and feature a thermal reflective lining to amp up the heat keeping powers of the 180-gram fleece. Stretch in the wrist makes them easy to get on and off; a silicone pattern on the palm provides great grip.  Explore

Puff…the Magic Jacket

September 19, 2018 - by Elizabeth Kerr

I was recently travelling where weather is unpredictable from hour to hour. I knew that what I brought with me would impact my daily routine, if not carefully thought through. I do know about the three-layer formula: base, puff and waterproof…but I never really bought into it…until now. Base and waterproof were amply covered…it was the “puff” that challenged me. I had always thought that they were too hot, too bulky (on and off) and too expensive. And then there’s the issue of down vs. polyester.Explore

ExOfficio Boxer Briefs and Hipkini Underwear

November 13, 2017 - by Jeff Thomason

ExOfficio underwear

I grew up clothed in wool and cotton, and came rather late to the layering concept for active wear. The Arran sweater my mother knitted for my 20th birthday has been on many an early-Spring paddling and camping trips. Cotton underwear has been a staple on these trips – one pair of jockeys a day, replaced but not washed. The clean spares are rolled in a towel and used as a pillow. And yes, it has always been jockeys rather than boxers.Explore

You’ve Earned your Stripes

May 10, 2017 - by Julie Kerr

No nautical voyage is complete without the quintessential striped shirt, and lucky for you I have found the perfect one(s)! Anyone who knows me, knows that when it comes to stripes, I am like superman, with a closet full of what seems like exactly the same top (but trust me, I notice every nuance). Stripes are perfect for all occasions and when you’re travelling by boat, well – they are mandatory.Explore

Ferrosi’s Perfect Outdoor Pant

May 6, 2017 - by Julie Kerr

We’ve all been there, planning for a trip or an excursion agonizing over how many or which layers to bring. Going back and forth, asking yourself questions like: If I wear pants will I be too hot? If I wear shorts, will I be too cold? Well, Outdoor Research has taken pity on you, and come up with the Ferrosi pants: the perfect lightweight hiking pant. Explore

Salomon Quest Prime GTX Hiking Boot

April 10, 2017 - by Julie Kerr

No matter the waypoint, footwear is extremely important, especially in wet conditions.

When I set to find the perfect hiking boot, my only criteria is that they have to be Gor e-Tex. Luckily, during my search, I stumbled upon Salomon’s Quest Prime GTX Hiking Boot which not only utilizes Gore-Tex Extended Comfort Footwear, but was lightweight, high cut and extremely supportive.Explore
