Hiking & Outdoors

Walking is the most accessible sport there is: you don't need a membership or any special technique. What you do notice is that the small things make all the difference. Bright light on an open path, a bag that doesn't leak, and legs that are still willing the next day.

Protect your eyes on the trail

Above the tree line and along water, the light intensity is higher than you might think. Polarized glasses with UV400 remove glare and keep your eyes fresh. If you walk from forest to open field and back, a photochromic lens that changes color is more practical than switching.

Recover after a long day

After twenty kilometers, your calves and IT band will be tight. Five minutes with a massage roller or a resistance band, and you'll be ready to go again the next morning. Both fit in your backpack.

Stay strong during the season

Strong hips and glutes prevent knee problems on descents. A set of resistance bands weighs nothing and keeps you in shape during the weeks between your hikes.
