The Branch Creek Backpack ($250) makes for the perfect everyday outdoor bag, combining a stylish, rugged aesthetic with a bevy of practical fabrications, including a water-repellent finish and a durable fabric exterior.

When the demands of the day require a little more heft (let’s say to go to the beach or out on the boat), the Shackleford Tote ($170) picks up right where the Branch Creek leaves off. With its waxed canvas exterior, removable bottom liner and shoulder-length handles, this durable outdoor bag is equipped to store a wide assortment of essential items.

For outdoor adventures, Fish Hippie suggests trying out the Field & Sea Tote ($200), a double duty carrier that’s ideal for recreational use or as a tool bag. With the distinction of being “merited for sea and field,” the tote is a strong and versatile accessory that’s tough enough to be used in a variety of situations.

And as the perfect compliments to any of the great bags in the collection, the brand offers up the Travel Kit ($55), a no-frills bag for bathroom accessories and other small items, as well as the Log Carrier ($75), a durable piece of waxed duck canvas ideal for transporting firewood.

In addition to the new collection of packs and totes, Fish Hippie boasts a wide assortment of polo’s, button down shirts, flannels, T-shirts, outerwear, shorts and even a selection of fine wine, all available on the brand’s website.

Altra debuts a rare new collaboration with ROA

Although it’s rare to find Altra partnering with other brands, their latest collaboration with ROA seems to have been worth the wait. Along with the Italian brand ROA, Altra is releasing a new co-designed trail shoe full of all the technical features you need for outdoor activities. Because Altra doesn’t participate in many collaborations, there was no doubt this sneaker would impress. Made to blend with nature, the new sneaker is about functional footwear that can comfortably take you anywhere. Available in an Earth-toned color combination with hues such as dark brown, black, olive green, and muted yellow, this shoe is ideal for outdoorsmen looking for a go-to sneaker to reach for time after time. 
ROA x Altra Timp 5 GTX 

Crafted using waterproof, windproof, and breathable GORE-TEX uppers to protect the foot, the Timp 5 GTX sneakers utilize some of the latest footwear technology that helps improve performance. Using the Vibram Megagrip outsole, the sneaker comes equipped with maximum traction in any terrain or environment. The inside of the shoe comes ready with Altra’s EGO MAX midsole foam, which adds cushioning for durability and extra bounce in each step. As a bonus, the Timp 5 GTX sneaker includes a roomier toe box and zero-drop platform for even more toe support. This new trail sneaker is available now via Altra’s web store at $195. Although plenty of trail sneakers on the market offer diverse features and designs, the Timp 5 GTX is a true outdoor shoe made for durability and comfort. Since Altra is not known for being a frequent collaborator, their partnership with ROA is a unique opportunity to include a unique shoe into your lineup.

We all love to get out into the great outdoors. Experiencing all that Mother Nature has to offer by escaping the stresses of work, family, or even the holidays. However, as the weather changes and temperatures drop, it gets harder and harder to make these little nature escapes happen. That is unless you have the right gear. Oakley released their Japan Field Gear line back in March, and now they are dropping more of the collection for the Fall 2024 season to help you get out of the office and into the world of the great outdoors.

“From the city streets to the muddy trails, the Field Gear Line balances function and design for a range of outdoor wear,” the brand said back during the spring release. “Japanese craftsmanship shines through in the collection, showcasing technical excellence, elevated trims, and performance-oriented fit.”
