Hiking
SET YOURSELF UP FOR A SUCCESSFUL HIKE WITH THIS GEAR.
// BY DINA MISHEV
Black Diamond’s Distance Carbon FLZ Trekking/Running Poles are stiff, adjustable, durable, collapsible, and lightweight. $189.95; available at Teton Mountaineering (170 N. Cache St.)
Stio’s Divide Tee (the women’s version is the Divide Shift Shirt) is made from DriRelease fabric, which simultaneously wicks, dries, breathes, and cools without added chemicals. Seams don’t rub when you’re carrying a daypack. $59; available at Stio Mountain Studio (10 E. Broadway Ave.)
The Meridien LL sunglasses from Dragon Alliance work as well on the hiking trail as they look good at the brewpub. The sleek frames are made from injection-molded materials, and the lenses are lightweight and durable. $129; available at dragonalliance.com
The Eddy Shirt (available in men’s and women’s cuts) from Stio is made from stretchy fabric that is wind- and water-resistant and quick drying; it’s the perfect piece whether you prefer to hike in long sleeves to protect against the sun or want something to throw over your tee when you stop for lunch. $129; available at Stio Mountain Studio (10 E. Broadway Ave.)
Hikers often fall into one of two camps about footwear: those who like to hike in running shoes and those who like to hike in boots. If you’re in the former camp, try Hoka One One’s Speedgoat 4, which features a breathable mesh upper and super grippy Vibram sole. $145; available at Teton Mountaineering (170 N. Cache St.)
Smartwool’s Merino Sport Hike shorts (the Merino Sport 10” Short for men) are made from a stretch-woven fabric that’s lightweight, fast drying, and perfect for any hiking adventure. A waistband lined with Merino Sport 150 fabric is odor resistant, durable, and breathable. $60; available at Teton Mountaineering (170 N. Cache St.)
