Klean Kanteen :: 27 oz Stainless Steel Water Bottle

9 people recommended this item

Description

There are two main reasons that we moved away from our trusty Nalgene bottle. The first was because my wife started plastering stickers on our colorful collection saying THIS IS MY LAST NALGENE BOTTLE for this reason.

The second was THIS reason.

We have no idea if these findings are true, but we thought, why risk it? So we switched to a bottle with the unfortunate name of, Kleen Kanteen. After a year of daily use, we have to add a third reason for changing, we swear that our water tastes better. (via The Piton)

Big Agnes Divide Series Sleeping Bags

First to recommend

Description

What is old, is new again.
Back in the mesozoic era of outdoor equipment(1970s), there was an incredibly innovative manufacturer of tents, packs, and sleeping bags who's designs are still considered leading edge. A sleeping bag concept pioneered by Stephenson-Warmlite has once again been reinvented (http://www.warmlite.com/bags_In.htm).

To us, the Divide Series by Big Agnes is the perfect sleeping bag. It provides the best combination of warmth, weight, and comfort, of any bag today. (via The Piton)

Ibex: 17.5 micron Merino Wool QuT The Ultimate Tee Shirt

First to recommend

Description

It has been a busy spring. Coast to coast travel, Manhattan board meetings, family camping trips, and biking to work about 40% of the time. The QuT has been my constant companion. Sharp enough to take me into an annoying hipster Portland drinking establishment, and tough enough for all-day mountain bike rides, the QuT is the ultimate T-shirt that seems to prefer a hard sink washing to restore its magical properties.

Clear, fresh, and inspired. The first collection of articles printed on dead trees that I've enjoyed in memory.

MOG - It scans your iTunes and points you toward new music

First to recommend

Description

Yeah, scary as hell. The MOG-O-MATIC looks at all your music and hooks you up with like minded people who help you find new stuff to listen to. I'm hooked and am finally out of my Wilco rut.
