  • Camelbak Podium Dirt Water Bottle

    Fact: water bottles that live in a bottle cage on your mountain bike are going to get dirty. After one too many swigs on our basic model bottle that ended with us spitting dirt out, we decided it was time for a bottle with a cap on it. Looking around a bit, we saw the […]

  • MSR Guardian Gravity Water Purifier

    We'll just say it up front, MSR has designed what may be the perfect water purifier for small groups, capable of purifying ten liters of "worst-case" water at a rate of about one liter every two minutes, and with a filter rated for 3,000 liters of lifetime service. We know you have questions, like, what […]

  • Grayl Geopress Water Purifier

    The old rule of threes is still (roughly) accurate: three minutes without air, three days without water, three weeks without food. But! Some people are particularly freakish/motivated/genetically gifted, as in 22 minutes without air, 18 days without water and 74 days without food (thank you sciencealert.com). Human beings are generally pretty good at avoiding airless […]

  • Scepter 5 Gallon Water Can

    Sometimes you just need to bring it with you. Liquid, that is: gasoline, water, beer, whatever it is, look to Scepter to have a container for it. Scepter jerry cans – jerry as in Germans, who pioneered the use of these cans on military vehicles in the Second World War  – are still in use […]

  • Zojirushi Stainless Vacuum Mug

    If it's metal and it's used to hold or prepare food, Zojirushi has it dialed in. Their vacuum bottles have always been first rate, and you can bet your bottom dollar that whatever you put in them will be hot or cold as you prefer when you want it. The new Zojirushi 600ml/20oz stainless vacuum […]

  • Sawyer Micro Squeeze Water Filter

    Sawyer knows water filters, having been in the business since 1984. All that great rock and roll must have done something good, because they continue to lead innovation in the important area of helping us not puke our guts out because we drank some skank. The Micro Squeeze is Sawyer's smallest and lightest filter, at […]

  • TrailKeg Half Gallon Insulated Growler and Tap

    We're huge fans of the TrailKeg gallon growler, and if you had asked us if there was room to improve we'd have told you to back off and not mess with perfection. However! No one asked us and they did mess with perfection and the result is… more perfectionabulation, in the form of the TrailKeg […]

  • Zoku Pocket Straw

    Clearly all the extra plastic in the world is a problem, and with over 500 million plastic straws being used every frickin' day there's an easy way to do our part in fighting for our planet's oceans, and it's not like it's a big change to make: use a resusable straw. The Zoku Pocket Straw […]

  • Datrex Emergency Water Packet

    There's a reason Datrex emergency water packets are approved by coast guards all over the world: they're tough enough to be there when you need them. It's a pretty simple thing, really, just a four ounce purified water packet for those times when everything else has gone straight to hell. The Datrex packets have a […]

  • Zoku Vacuum Bottle

    Vacuum bottles are a dime a dozen these days, which is actually great since they're reusable and save on plastic pollution. It's the little things that set the good ones apart, and we're happy to report the Zoku vacuum bottles nail a couple extra points to set themselves apart in a good way. The Zoku […]
