The Keen Women’s Oakbridge Waterproof Shoe is the perfect hiking shoe for any hike. It is made with a rubber sole, lightweight leather and a mesh upper. The breathable membrane and hydrophobic mesh lining for dry comfort is what I love the most about this shoe. I highly recommend this footwear for your hiking gear checklist.
I love the CamelBak M.U.L.E. Hydration Pack for 100 ounces of water drinking and extra storage. It delivers 20% more water per sip, has an ergonomic handle for easy refilling and an on and off lever to prevent leaks. My favorite feature of this water pack and the reason I recommend this gear so strongly is the air director back panel, offering air channels to keep your back cool. This is a must get item for your next long hiking trip or trek.
The LifeStraw is an absolute necessity in any emergency travel pack. LifeStraws make it possible to filter dirty water from streams, rivers, lakes, etc. so you never run out of water when in the wilderness. LifeStraw removes bacteria including E. coli and salmonella and microplastics. As you can imagine, this handheld water filtration tool is the ultimate survival tool in an emergency. Plus, for every LifeStraw product purchased, a school child in need receives safe drinking water for an entire school year.
