This classic is 33 percent off. And it’s on sale in a ton of sizes and colors. This is a workhorse of a “sweater,” and really, I think of it more as a classy sweatshirt. It’s nice enough to keep at your desk for chilly AC moments and tough enough to be a first layer on a fall day hike.

If you haven’t carried around a floorless tipi-type shelter in the woods, you’ll be impressed with the amount of weight you can cut. This is a nice entry-level price on a two-person shelter than can set up with your trekking poles. If you want to get more technical, you can add accessories. But for us minimal types, this is a great option.

I’m a no-show sock fanatic. I’ve rocked these Smartwools, and they do what the brand claims. They do it so well, in fact, that people will ask you where your socks are. If you’ve never rocked this type of sock, I’ll tell ya that no-shows save both your shoes and your feet while also preventing weird tan lines and unnecessary fabric bulk in summer months.
