Fan-Favorite Backcountry Kit Goes Soft: Lofoten Flex1 Jacket and Pants Review
  There’s this one distinct section of my favorite touring zone that confounds most layering strategies. It’s about an hour into the tour and nearly 2,000 vertical feet into the climbing when the forest yields to an icy wind-battered ridgeline that bends up even steeper. The topography creates a frigid micro-climate of wind and tundra. Yet I consistently overheat in a...
Best Snowboard Pants for Men of 2025-2026
  Snowboard pants do more than just keep you warm and dry — they’re a key part of your on-mountain style and performance. From baggy fits and bold colors to slim, backcountry-inspired designs, today’s snowboard pants blend technical details with style that speaks to your riding identity.   But it’s not just about looking good. Snowboarding demands outerwear that can handle wet...
How the Updated Cotopaxi Fuego Jacket Improves Upon a Classic
  We’re no strangers to the Cotopaxi Fuego collection, particularly the Fuego Down Hooded Jacket. It is a versatile jacket that can perform in the mountains or around town. It also packs down to a more manageable size when you need to carry it, but not wear it.   However, that jacket has been revamped with new materials and a roomier fit,...
The Toyota Truck Challenge Continues: Toyota Destination Detour’s Episode 2 Brings Grit & Glory
  What does adventure do to the human brain? According to the value metrics calculated from the six athletes competing in the Toyota Destination Detour challenge, adventure impacts the human brain in hugely positive ways. Completing challenges in Toyota Trucks across gorgeous California landscapes doesnt hurt, either.   In this second episode of the Toyota Destination Detour, the three teams of athletes...
Classic Touring Boots Get Huge Updates: Scarpa Maestrale & Maestrale RS Review
  Some boots make an impression for a season or two. The Scarpa Maestrale ($799) and Maestrale RS ($899) have stayed with me for more than a decade. I first skied a version of the Maestrale in 2010, and it has been a constant in my backcountry kit ever since. It has carried me through early-season firm snow in the Tetons,...
There’s No Better First Knife Than This: Knafs Lander 5 Review
  I am part of a generation when kids carried pocket knives, slingshots, and shot BB guns on the regular. I am not saying there aren’t small pockets where this is still the case, but most kids nowadays just carry around a glowing screen for their entertainment.   Thankfully, theres a little knife-maker in Utah that still wants kids to get dirt...
Warmth Meets Wiggle Room: REI Co-op Siesta Hooded 20 Sleeping Bag Review
  Crawling into a sleeping bag can sometimes feel more like mummification than rest. Most designs are narrow for efficiency as they are meant to conserve heat and compress into a backpack.   The REI Co-op Siesta Hooded 20 Sleeping Bag takes a different approach. Built wide, soft, and unapologetically comfortable, it’s as close to bringing your bed to the campsite as...
Meet an American Renaissance Man: Rancher, Hunter, Combat Veteran, Wildland Firefighter, and Podcast Host
  Play If you ask him, James Nash says he’s just a normal American guy with an abnormally organized truckbed, thanks to DECKEDs drawer systems.   He grew up on an Oregon ranch, trapping gophers and working as a pack horse hunting guide in high school. He also wrestled so well that he moved to Norway for a year to train professionally. ...
Fashion Goes Camping: ‘Adaptable Shelterwear’ Turns Gear Into an Outfit
  The earthquake that struck Myanmar in March 2025 left a huge impact on Yoon Myat Su Lin. The death, destruction, and fallout from that tragedy stuck with the 22-year-old Myanmar fashion student studying at Esmod Tokyo. So, Lin started thinking outside of the box —way outside of it —and began designing an outfit shes calling the Adaptable Shelterwear Collection.   Seeing...
‘ShredSHOCK’ Snowboard Suspension Device Crushes Kickstarter Goal
  When the first mass-produced suspension shocks hit the market for mountain bikes in the 90s, it changed the sport forever. Now, brands are applying that same concept to skis and snowboards. Last year, GearJunkie covered the launch of ShredShocks, a full suspension shock system for ski bindings.   This year, ShredLORD launched on Kickstarter, offering a similar system for snowboarders looking...
Say Goodbye to Smartwater Bottles — These Dialed Alternatives Have Refined the Design
  From collaborations with high-fashion brands to apparel made with graphene and Kevlar, there were plenty of cutting-edge gear innovations this year. However, sometimes innovation comes from rethinking the simplest things. Take, for example, the humble water bottle. In 2025, creative advancements have helped replace one of backpackings most ubiquitous pieces of gear: the disposable Smartwater bottle.   Thru-hikers have long loved...
Bernhard Braun Releases the Most Risqué Freeride Ski Film We’ve Seen in a While
  Bernhard Braun makes it clear from the start: he has nothing to tell. He isnt going to try to educate viewers with his ski movie or make them watch his emotional breakdowns on the skin track. Instead, the Rossignol athlete is content to crack a few jokes, shred sick lines, and stick big air landings. Its what the people want...
