Recon: Dunamis Gear Foray Pack
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. The small EDC pack category never gets enough love. Tim Harper at Dunamis Gear must be paying attention…

DWS 2015 & PROJECT Q: the second coming
Senior contributor David Massey reports on why he’s visited the Dogpatch Warehouse Sale for two years running. “How could an annual retail sale be an adventure you ask? ‘Project Q’ – that’s how…”

Review: Colfax Design Works
Part of the Colfax Design Works mantra is: “…to reinvent product from the past, repurpose it for today, and push it past the capabilities of tomorrow”. Sounds like something that could work for today’s action adventure lifestyle.

Bomber & Company: Paracord Survival
The paracord bracelet thing has become sort of old hat, as popularity has peaked, well beyond the worlds of EDC and prepper communities. Find out why these particular offering from Bomber & Co caught our interest…

Hands on: CORE Nano Wallet 01

The Litespeed is a go to for those wanting just enough room to hold essential items for every day carry. How do you improve upon something that is seemingly perfect? It’s a dangerous thing to take a product that your loyal consumers love and then reconstruct, redesign and reimagine it.

Recon: Salomon 4D GTX Quest
Do you go backpacking or hiking barefooted? Didn’t thinks so… unless you’re that nutjob Cody Lundin from Dual Survival, then you probably wear boots when you hit the great outdoors.

Recon: Tracer Jacket
When I first got a look of the Tracer Jacket a month or so ago in the much anticipated Triple Aught Design Friday newsletter, I have to admit, I was on the fence.
