It’s that time of year, again! Time for the annual REI Cyber Week Sale! Which means tons of camping and backpacking gear is on sale! So we rounded up 10 items we think are worth a look AND can be bought with a solid discount this holiday season. Bonus: these items are also more sustainable options. So if you need some new gear, now’s the time. Just make sure to shop between November 30-December 9.
‘Tis the season to shove goodies into oversized socks hanging from a mantle that hopefully won’t result in a house fire! (By which I mean it’s the holiday season; time to stuff some stockings…) But Outdoorsy folks can be hard to shop for, especially because we definitely don’t need ANOTHER spork or pocket-sized multi-tool (please don’t get us another spork…). Fortunately, being avid outdoorists ourselves, we know a little something about what hikers, campers, cyclists and kayakers WOULD love to find in a stocking hung by the chimney with care, so we made this handy list of outdoor stocking stuffers for outdoor enthusiasts. You’re bound to find something they’ll love.
It’s that time again, folks! (Yeah, yeah, I know, don’t remind us…) ‘Tis the season of consumerism! Personally, this time of year isn’t our favorite, and we could do without all the obsessive shopping and buying crap just because you think you have to (you totally don’t), but there is something to be said about a thoughtful, useful gift passed along to someone you love that shows them how much they mean to you and that you know them well enough to gift them something they’ll love. But that’s easier said than done! Especially if the people you love are outdoorsy (we tend to be fairly particular about our gear). So if you need some ides to get you started, here are 10 of the best gifts for outdoorsy folks this year. And yes, we’ve tested all of them and they get the Terradrift stamp of approval. Just shop responsibly, and spend some time outdoors with friends and loved ones this season.
It’s that time of year again: Shopping season. Time to scour the internet for not only gifts, but the best black Friday camping deals on hiking or kayaking gear, tents, stoves, and all things outdoors. Indeed, if there’s one time to replace that worn-out fleece or buy your first hybrid jacket, it may very well be now. So we’ve rounded up some of the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday (BFCM) outdoor deals to help you save.
Looking for waterproof grounding shoes so you can keep up your earthing practice in the winter? The Bahé Rediscover might be just the thing.
One of the best parts of backpacking is arguably the end of the day when you’re done hiking, the ultralight tent or camping hammock is set up, and you’ve got nothing left to do but kick back, make dinner, and shove an unnatural amount of food down your gullet to replace all those calories you burned walking for miles with a heavy pack on your back. So when that time comes, you want the best camping cookware on hand, ready to rehydrate those backpacking meals. What makes a camp cookware set the best? Well, that depends on you and your style of backpacking, who you’re with, and what you plan to eat. So we tested a handful of ultralight cookware options to see which were tops and which are best suited for all different types of backpackers.
You know we love us some barefoot shoes here at Terradrift, from barefoot sandals to barefoot hiking shoes to barefoot boots for winter. We’re seriously all about it. But for those of you who aren’t quite fully committed to the whole barefoot shoe experience, but still want shoes that emphasize healthy posture and plenty of space for your toes to spread, zero drop wide toe box shoes are just the thing. Here are 7 of our favorite more sustainable options.
We love to travel here at Terradrift. And we’ve spent enough time exploring Europe now to definitely have our favorite spots for outdoor adventure. So if you’re headed to (or located in) mainland Europe, definitely check out these routes, which might just be some of the best hiking trails in Europe (they’re at least some of our faves so far).
Here at Terradrift, we’re hikers first (even though we are also obsessed with backpacking and mountain biking). And as such, we’ve explored nearly every corner of the wide and wonderful landscape known as the U.S. Along the way, we’ve found some magical trails (including paddle trails) from coast to coast (including in Hawaii and Alaska). Naturally, there are millions of trails around this massive country, and we obviously haven’t hiked even close to all of them. We haven’t even hiked in every state (though we’ve been to almost every state)! But of the places we have laced up our vegan hiking boots, these are some of our favorite hikes in the USA!
You know we love a functional, well-designed, sustainable piece of gear here at Terradrift. And there may be no more impactful piece of gear than the (not so humble) daypack. After all, it accompanies you on all your hiking–maybe even biking or travel–adventures, holds your 10 essentials, and gets carted onto mountain, desert, and coastal trails. It will probably be with you for years if not decades (if you’re taking care of it and repairing it, of course), and gets caked with not only dirt, but memories. So choosing the right one–and one that’s kinder to the planet–is an important decision. Fortunately, we’ve tested a whole bunch and these are the best daypacks in our opinion (that are also highly sustainable).
