Adventure Travel Buying Guide
Learn how to choose the best adventure travel gear for your next expedition here.
Luggage
Luggage is the only piece of home that will follow you around the world and finding the right match will change your approach to travel forever. This guide will help you learn how to choose the best luggage for your needs.
Trekking Pack
Backpacks have become high-tech works of art. From features-strapped load-haulers designed for distance backpacking trips to ultralight shoulder-slingers, the options are myriad and choosing the right one can often feel overwhelming.
Sunscreen
If you play outdoors and plan to stay outdoors, sunscreen ranks right up there with water and proper attire as a necessity. Basic knowledge about this wondrous protective invention could save you pain and even save your life.
Travel Headphones
With the right headphones, you can blast The Cure on backcountry slopes, feel Naughty by Nature flow in class IV rapids, and rock out to Ride of the Valkyries while grinding remote single-track.
Travel & Expedition Pants
Your pants will tell stories; they will don patches, stains and stiches – perhaps even the occasional blood stain. They must be durable enough to defend legs from rocks and thorns, yet comfortable enough to be worn many times on a single wash.
Travel & Expedition Shirt
Today’s travel and expedition shirt is not just a piece of tough material; it’s sunscreen, bug repellant, and a cooler for your core. It has moisture wicking properties, can be worn as naturally to dinner, the office, or on a steaming jungle trek.
Emergency Radio
An emergency radio is a device that has been specifically designed to receive important alerts and updates from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). In times of crisis, NOAA can activate its own network of emergency transmitters in order to alert the public to potential problems.
