    Why do you want to repair stuff; why don’t we all get to use cool tech features; and holy crap that’s a lot of gear.

  • Black Diamond Memorial Day Sale

    Really good deals on headlamps here if you need to grab some. The Spot Lite 200 for a small compact light that has a red light is a favorite of mine. The Wiz is ideal for kids. The Storm models are great for those who need to make it through some rough weather conditions. And […]

  • REI Anniversary Sale

    Some good deals on Black Diamond headlamps (big fan of those, though Black Diamond’s sale has slightly better pricing depending on shipping and taxes for you) and hiking shoes (I snagged some Salomon XA’s) — also a bunch of merino gear is on sale and that’s a good enough reason for me to grab another […]

  • Tom Bihn Road Buddy Pre-Order!

  • GORUCK GR1 Field Pockets in Multicam Tropic

    GORUCK just dropped some GR1 Field Pocket in Multicam Tropic — a favorite of mine — and they are not USA made which means the price is nicely set at $50. (They also released Multicam Black and Black at the same price.) I think this is the best size of these GORUCK makes, and I have […]

  • Triple Aught Design Axiom 24 (Bonus: Comparison to Discontinued Axiom 18)

    It likely this is the best bag you can EDC to your office.

    I take two iconic and fantastic bags, which I have been telling you to buy for years, and then tell you about two bags better than those.
