GORUCK released the M22 top loading backpack for $195. I actually like the looks of the bag, and think that it’s great they are branching out to a new style all together. I am holding off buying right now because they stated width on this is 14.5”, which from experience with other bags seems quite […]

My wife swears by these, and they are the only sunglasses she has ever loved wearing. On sale for $175.

‘Outdoors’ bags are 30% off (code: MRHOLIDAY22), this includes: District 18 & 24, Blitz series, 2 Day Assault, and Urban Assault 21. Buy yourself and your family some new bags, great deal. Page here.

Some really killer prices on Ruckers selling for $179. I am not a fan of the Jedburghs myself, but there are some MacV-1s on sale and those are excellent boots.

Now is a great time to snag some MACV-1s in your size (I grabbed another pair). If Coyote Brown is a color you like (great color) the GR1 is on sale in that color. Sale here (affiliate link naturally).

GORUCK released the GR2 (26L and 34L) in Heritage materials, as well as the Bullet Ruck. They both look great, but be advised that the prices on these are a premium over the stock ones. (Oh, and a Field Pocket in Heritage.) I can’t speak to those items directly, but the GR1 Heritage I bought […]

GORUCK dropped a Bullet Ruck w/ Laptop Compartment and it looks like a really great option for those who pack lighter. It holds a 13/14” laptop, unfortunately not the popular 16” models. Find them here, $175.

My review here, great bag. Buy here, $149

Currently available for $254, it’s one of the best EDC bags money can buy. Amazing price. My review.

I’m not a Wordle person, but I am a fan of this developer. So if you are a Wordle person (I think it’s popular) check this out. (Also: what a great icon.)

Some silly good deals on Kuiu gear at up to 40% off. I’ve tried quite a few things from them, and every single item I have gotten has been great. Their training shorts are my favorites right now for rucking. I snagged a couple more things during this sale.

This is one of the best sales GORUCK has every year. Get to shopping.

Some good deals to be had, oddball sizes so don’t get too revved up. I grabbed a dry bag to try for a great price though. (Pro-tip: Filson tends to randomly add more stuff throughout sales.) Gear up. 

$125 with shoulder strap, for what is probably one of the better weekender/travel duffle bags out there. I currently use mine as my emergency bag for my house, and I think it fills that role supremely well (members can head here to see what I use in place of it). My thoughts on the bag […]

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 […]

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 […]

I love the Road Buddy series. My review is here. Know that I still use these bags to this day, and refuse to let people borrow them. They are excellent bags. Pre-order for 36 is here. Pre-order for 60 is here. Get some!

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 […]

The Smart Alec was the first bag I reviewed on this site, at least as far as I can remember. Way back in December of 2011, I wrote about it in what became a three part series for reasons lost to time. And I had a small update later about some design changes. Over time […]

Limited edition SB (Special Blend) model of the ASAP is out now. Two differences: Laptop Sleeve! Special Colorways They seem to have a couple hundred left at writing, go get it. The biggest downside of the ASAP was the missing laptop sleeve, and this has it. Oh my. Buy here.
