Live out your fantasy of being an East German bad guy in a 1980s alpine action film with the Cross Range Shield Prism glasses. The lack of nose piece affords a wider range of view; the front is made almost entirely of the len (just a like snow goggle). It also just looks badass.

Camping just got a lot easier … with a shoe organizer?
Here's how a shoe organizer can make your camping trip great
Shoe organizer

Camping is all about adventure and relaxation, but nothing ruins the experience faster than a messy campsite. If you've ever found yourself rummaging through bags for your flashlight or struggling to keep your hygiene items off the ground, a hanging shoe organizer can help.

Personally, I love shoe organizers. As someone who lives in a shoebox apartment, they are an absolute must to keep my shoes tidy and tucked away. But believe it or not, they are actually pretty handy at keeping the chaos at bay when you go camping, too. Here's everything you need to know about camping with a shoe organizer.

Helinox reimagined its OG packable camp chair (again) with the Chair One (re)
Even stronger, more stable, and more eco-friendly, this is the last camp chair you may ever need to buy.
Four campers sitting near a river in Helinox Chair One (re) packable camp chairs.

Packable camp furniture (everything from chairs to tables to folding camp sofas) is so ubiquitous in the loadouts of almost every backpacker, car camper, and overlander these days. Improving on such a simple concept might seem impossible, but that's exactly what the good folks at Helinox have done with their latest Chair One (re) camp chair.

Helinox, the California brand that singlehandedly kicked off the packable camp furniture craze with the debut of the Chair One, has reimagined and redesigned it as the Chair One (re). This latest iteration adds a number of improvements, including dual-tension technology. It's essentially a second tension line within the chair's perimeter that better distributes weight for improved stability and comfort. The company further redesigned the nylon resin hubs and a 30% taller underseat crossbar. The result? It's much easier to get in and out of, plus there's no more wobbling on soft sand beaches and uneven campsite ground. The new Chair One High-Back (re) offers the same improvements, plus better shoulder and upper-back support.

The Naledi is a tiny teardrop travel trailer that’s surprisingly big on views
With matching "floor-to-ceiling" windows, this pint-sized towable offers more panoramic views than most.

It's getting hard for even the best teardrop travel trailers to stand apart from the crowd these days. That's why Naledi Campers decided to go big with its namesake model, with some of the biggest and best views of any pint-sized towable on the market.

The most standout feature of the Naledi Camper is also its most visible. The South African RV maker bookends its design with two large, nearly floor-to-ceiling glass windows — one on either side of the cabin. Unlike traditional teardrop trailers that can feel dark and cramped, the Naledi offers more than twice the glass. This ensures a bright, airy interior with panoramic views of whatever epic campsite you happen to be overnighting at. Two awnings are included, one with drop-down sides for extra privacy.
