Spring is starting to show up (even if the weather can’t quite make up its mind yet), and we’ve been busy unpacking a big wave of new outdoor gear in the shop.

This time of year always gets us excited—longer days, more time outside, and that itch to plan your next trip, whether it’s a quick night at Jordan Lake or a full-on summer road trip in the making.

We pulled together a list of 10 of our favorite new arrivals—the ones we’re most excited about, using ourselves, or already recommending daily in the store.

Browse the full collection here. 

1. Carabiner Bottle 34 oz Clip Cap

This one earned its spot the real way—Tyler test drove it before we brought it in, and now it’s his go-to water bottle. The clip cap makes it easy to attach to a pack, kayak, or camp setup, and it’s just one of those simple upgrades you end up using every single day.

2. Kelty Tru.Comfort Doublewide 20° Sleeping Bag

Camping just got a whole lot more comfortable. This doublewide sleeping bag is perfect for couples—or anyone who likes a little extra room to sprawl out. It’s warm enough for early spring nights but roomy enough to feel like you’re not zipped into a cocoon.

3. Kelty Space Cadet Infant Sleeping Bag

If you’re bringing little ones along, this is such a great piece of gear. Early spring camping can still be chilly, and this gives you peace of mind that your kiddo stays warm—while also introducing them early to just how fun camping can be.

4. Kush Air Bed with Rechargeable Pump

Pair this with the double sleeping bag and you’re basically glamping. The rechargeable pump makes setup easy, and the comfort level is high enough that you might actually sleep better outside than at home.

5. Spill Ender Paper Towel Protector

One of those small, genius products you don’t think about—until you need it. Keeps your paper towels dry and usable, even if the weather turns. Less waste, less frustration, and one less soggy mess at camp.

6. Kelty Rumpus 6-Person Tent

This isn't necessarily a new product from Kelty, but it makes the list because we love it! This is our go-to family tent, and the standout feature is the vestibule. It gives you a dedicated space for changing, storing gear, and keeping things organized—without taking up your sleeping space. Family-friendly without feeling oversized.

7. ENO Hammocks (New Prints and Giveback Styles)

We just got a fresh batch of ENO hammocks in some really fun patterns—perfect for festivals like Shakori Hills or just hanging in the backyard. Even better, many of these designs give back to causes we care about, so you can feel good about your setup.

8. FLi-PRO 8' Telescoping Light

This is one of those upgrades that changes your whole campsite experience. Instead of wearing a headlamp nonstop, you can light up your entire space. It makes cooking, organizing gear, and just hanging out at night so much easier.

9. National Parks Insulated Sticker Bottle (32 oz)

If you’ve got a Great American road trip on your mind, this one just fits the vibe. Durable, functional, and a little nostalgic—it’s the kind of bottle that ends up going everywhere with you.

10. Buff EcoStretch – Grateful Dead Space Roses

We’re still in our feels over here and loving anything Grateful Dead right now. This Buff is lightweight, versatile, and an easy way to add a little personality and sun protection to your spring adventures.
