Ant: Outdoor Element Poo Pouch

What are the must-have stocking fillers and Christmas presents this year? The expert team at Further Faster share their ideas for top-notch outdoor gifts. 

Ant: Outdoor Element Poo Pouch (featured)

“An excellent gift for people wanting to ‘find comfort in the outdoors’ and leave no trace when adventuring. This is a unique addition to the Christmas list for environmentally-conscious people.”

 

Rocky: Biolite Firepit +

“A great talking point and perfect for getting all your friends and family around, cooking up a feast and having a bit of fun! (It could be a good self-gift, too!)”

 

Jayden: GSI Gourmet Pourover Java Set

“This compact pour-over set makes a great gift for any adventuring coffee lover.”

 

Millie: Injinji Ultra Run Socks

“The extra cushioning in these socks is a real treat for your feet, and you can say goodbye to toe blisters! A perfect gift for the runners and hikers in your life.”

 

Jahna: Opinel knife

“Opinel make quality sharp knives for tramping. I’ve had mine for seven years. It’s fantastic, and there are different sizes for different outdoor adventures and adventurers.”

 

Lana: Montane Icarus Hut Booties

For the warmest toes after a day of tramping, it’s worth the extra 160-200g to take these booties. They’re perfect for adventures in colder months.

 

Matteo: Petzl Grigri

“This is the best sport climbing belay device out there! Perfect for those climbers on your gift list.”

Badger: Ruffwear Trail Runner System

“A great gift for doggies (and their people) who love to run together. Go hands-free with your leash and even carry a water bottle so both of you stay hydrated!”
