GEAR REPORT 2: Brave the City, How to Reinvent Your Life in 2025, the 14 Best Christmas Action Movies, and more...
Hard goods for the adventure-seeking man—for travel and daily life. Plus, a few INROADS to make over the holiday.
Us adventure-seeking guys will always find a way to buy gear. I’m talking wallets, watches, caps, knives, duffel bags, gadgets, cameras—THE GOOD STUFF.
I wanted to get a new cache of gear out before the holiday to (1) help prepare for end of year sales, and (2) provide entertainment during travel times and couch hangs with the family.
THE POST OVERVIEW

INROADS
LIVE A LITTLE
This issue is all about braving the city. Keeping a lean bag to serve your curious mind as you hop from coffee shops to museums, to food and flea markets, and more. It’s the type of bag I’d set out with on a serious full-day excursion across NYC.
Happy Holidays everyone.

Leave a comment if you wanna chat. I dig speaking with like-minded people.
I'm looking to get into shooting some on film. Do you like the Pentax as a solid, overall camera? Or, would you recommend another film camera for the dilettante?
