This article is made possible by sponsors.
Summer might be the perfect time to pitch a tent, or park your trailer, with a beautiful view, but no one ever looks forward to packing. It’s inevitable that you forget something, or find out too late about that unexpected piece of gear that would have made your life so much easier. We’ve compiled some of our favorite new products and under-rated essentials so you won’t miss out whether it’s your first camping trip of the season or your 50th this year.
Spark Down Sleeping Bag from Sea to Summit
If there is anywhere to treat yourself in your camp experience, it’s your sleep set up. Give up your decades old sleeping bag that is always too hot or cold and pick up the Spark Down Sleeping Bag. Designed with backpacking in mind, this sleeping bag is really a do-it-all powerhouse, ultra light but with all the details in construction that make for a great night’s sleep.
On the inside is RDS-certified 850+ fillpower goose down treated with a non-PFAS Ultra-Dry Down treatment. On the outside a super breathable 10 Denier liner fabric, while a 10D shell with a non PFAS DWR plus a highly water repellent hood and footbox fabric shed wind and condensation. The full-length zipper models can be zipped to an equivalent Women’s Spark for comfort that couples can share.
Jasper Hiking Socks from Fox River
Skip the blisters and under-arch bunching and invest in a quality pair of socks like the Jasper Hiking Socks from Fox River. Made from soft, moisture-wicking merino wool, these medium weight socks are perfect for a variety of temperatures. Plus, Fox River’s trademarked URfit® system ensures long-lasting arch support and memory knit construction that saves you from bunching and hot spots on the go.
All-Weather Floor Liners from Ford Accessories
Camp can get messy, but that doesn’t mean your car has to. Upgrade your floor liners to all-weather liners like the F-150 SuperCrew 2015-2025 3pc All-Weather Floor Liner Tray for Carpet Floor from Ford Accessories and save yourself the headache of worrying about muddy boots or paws. Constructed from Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE), these durable floor mats are easy to clean and hassle-free. When you’re home from your adventure, simply remove from the truck and wash with soapy water.
Zya Hat from Pistil
Sunny day? Hat. Dirty hair? Hat. Raining? Hat. One of the most essential pieces of the camping uniform is a great cap. The Zya Hat from Pistil is the perfect accessory for an eco-friendly adventurer. Made from recycled polyester, this cap features a large back opening and stretchy elastic bands, allowing for ponytails at any height. The adjustable hook-and-loop closure ensures a comfortable fit every time.
Koala 2.0 Super Grip Phone Harness from Hangtime
Dropping your phone at home is bad enough, dropping your phone outdoors where spiky rocks and water are rampant, and you’ll soon have a broken phone when you need it most. Enter the Koala 2.0 to keep your phone safe and secure. This camera friendly, phone case compatible attachment stretches to fit any phone and allows you to tether your phone to your belt. Now you don’t have to worry about losing or dropping your phone, and you can just enjoy your adventure.
Nova and Antora 4 from Merrell
A good pair of trail runners are the ultimate summer hiking shoe. Breathable, lightweight, and well cushioned, while able to handle trails with ease. Merrell is one of our go to brands for good reason and the fourth editions of their most popular men’s and women’s trail runners show why. The Nova and Antora 4 blend clean athletic design with functional running comfort to support you no matter where the trail takes you.
