Fall Frontier: Gear for Crisp Days and Rainy Nights
Fall brings crisp air and occasional rain. Gear up with items that provide warmth and protection without overheating.
Recommended Gear:
-
Quarter Zip Base Layer: Whether you're hitting the trails or layering up for a high-altitude expedition, this top keeps you dry and comfortable with its advanced moisture-wicking technology. The design includes thumb holes to maintain sleeve position during movement, and it seamlessly integrates with our Quarter Zip Mid Layer for effortless layering and temperature regulation.

GORE-TEX Gloves: Don’t let cold hands slow you down. Although pricey, it's always worth it to go for gloves made with GORE-TEX. This offers premium insulation and weather resistance for one of our most vulnerable extremities in winter conditions. A highlight for us is the Arc'Teryx Venta AR Glove.
