Military-Inspired Relwen Ripstop CPO Jacket | Product Review
Justin Speer reviews the military-inspired Relwen (Huckberry) Ripstop CPO jacket, a lightweight durable jacket that's great for three seasons. CPO jackets/shirts originated in the 1930's in the U.S. Navy, and this jacket is a new take on it. Two generous front chest pockets, two hand warming pockets, 5-button closure in front, ergonomically curved sleeves with pleated elbows for ease of movement, and a draw cord at the bottom to lock in the heat when it's cold outside.

The closed-cell insole prevents from water-logging and is perfect for stream crossings. The shoe dries out quickly. And the breathable upper mesh material keeps your feet cool and comfortable. The Vibram Megagrip outsole provides ex...

Joulle Electric Kettle by Stoke Voltaics | Product Review
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.8 месяцев назад
Justin Speer reviews the Joulle Electric Kettle by Stoke Voltaics. This electric kettle is a great alternative to the ISO and propane-burning camp stoves. There's no open flame and no worrying about fuel cannisters and trying to determine how much fuel is left in each cannister. But you do need a power source with a plug-in. This device has a one-touch operation and also has three different set...

Justin Speer Reviews the FLannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket from Flint & Tinder (Huckberry). Is this possibly the most comfortable jacket ever? The jacket's lining makes this soft on the inside, and the waxed cotton exterior form fits perfectly to your arm's movements, making this a jacket that feels comfortable from Day 1.

Yeti Yonder 1-liter Water Bottles
Просмотров 2,9 тыс.Год назад
In this video, Justin Speer reviews the Yeti Yonder 1-liter water bottles that are both lightweight and durable. They come in 5 colors- Navy, Canopy Green, Charcoal, Clear, and Seafoam. They're dishwasher safe and made from 50% recycled materials. The water bottles are advertised as leakproof- and that's been my own personal experience- but I have read some reviews that say they do in fact leak...
Atlantic Rancher's Bayman's Flannel Shirt Review
Просмотров 241Год назад
Justin Speer reviews the Bayman's Flannel shirt from the Atlantic Rancher Company. It's a 5.3 oz midweight 100% yarn-dyed Portuguese cotton with a brushed finish. This is absolutely the softest flannel shirt! It doesn't have the weight and heft like Filson's Alaskan Guide Shirts, but it is super comfortable to wear and makes a great hiking or outdoor shirt when it's not too cold. There are bar-...

Justin Speer reviews the Mystery Ranch Urban Assault 21L backpack. While this bag may seem to be lacking in features- there is no exterior water bottle holder- it's all about durability and quality. The backpack is made from 500D Cordura fabric and all the exterior zippers have a Eurothane coating to make them waterproof. There's a nice "detail" pouch on top with a generous amount of room- also...
Keen Men's Targhee III Waterproof Mid Review
Просмотров 3,2 тыс.Год назад
Justin Speer reviews the Men's Targhee III Waterproof Mid- a shoe model he's used for the last 10 years. But will how will the new version compare? These boots are a great mid-range hiking boot. They're not the lightest boots out there, but offer plenty of ankle support and protection from rocks and roots. The soles on these boots provide excellent traction and work well in snow, ice, and mud. ...

Vanquest Envoy-13 Messenger Bag Review
Try the whiskey shell cordovan on a johnny the fox. I promise you this will make you go INSANE
I wonder if the 25 ounce version would fit the side pockets of a backpack.
Yes- it would for sure.
@@JustinSpeer thank you :)
Would love to see an update on these, if you all still use them. Considering getting an A5 version to use as a travel journal/scrapbook.
Thanks! Yes- I still use them daily. I will plan on doing an update video for sure.
@@JustinSpeer nice!!! Can't wait!
Is it warm enough to wear it in the winter ?
Yes, it is. It's a fairly heavy jacket. And it helps that it's lined. Plus, there's room for layering.
That's an incredible collection! 😍
Thank you!
The traverse are sold-out in Canada, so I just ordered a pair of the Pursuit 2. They have the same drying technology in the fabric and sole, and are supposed to be a more comfy ride. I am doing backcountry portages with 60 pound packs, so the Pursuit 2 may have less stability but I think my feet will be happier. I decided to ditch traditional water-proof hikers because my feet would be burning and the hard structure would wear my feet. Hoping I don't bruise my toes or feet with the rocks and roots
@TelosBudo, thanks! I'll be curious how you like the Pursuit 2's. That's the next pair I want to get. So far, I have the Traverse and the Terraventure 4 WP's. (Love them both.)
That’s because it’s not leather it’s ligament or silver skin
That makes sense. Thanks.
Great review! Thanks-
Thank you! I appreciate your support.
Thank you 🙏.
Great review!
Thank you, @northwestlife2794!
Thanks for the awesome video!
Thank you, @Shogun8!
What size is your macbook and does it fit in the side dividers? Informative video by the way.
Hi @mannyvaldez7136. I have a Macbook Air 13" and yes- it fits in the side dividers, even with the leather sleeve I keep on it. It's definitely a little roomier in the main compartment. But nice to know it can fit in the side dividers as well.
Thanks for the review! Getting some for my son!
Thank you! I hope your son enjoys the shirts! And super friendly people at Poncho as well.
Thank you for a close up review. This makes me get a picture of this bag fully.
Thank you. And thanks for watching!
Also anyone coming to this video to buy this for there dog should definitely do it I got to go to my local petco and pick one out it’s metal light weight and very good quality stitching it fits any type of dog I have one giant one and one very small and they both love it !
Good to know that Petco sells this brand. I've always bought directly from the Wolfgang website. But glad there's a few local stores that carry them, too. Thanks.
Ahaha I was watching your video hoping you would show how you fitted your dog to there harness! But this video gave me the push I needed when I saw how cute your dogs looked in them too figure it out my self ! And I did my dog is super cute in his harness now I love this brand but the harness was kinda hard to fit but once you get how to do it, it’s easy!
Glad you like it! Yes- I have a lot of harnesses for my dog, but this is the one I use most often for hiking or going to the dog park. It's not too bulky.
Useless video - did not show how they lighten the space
Thanks for the feedback. I will continue to improve future videos.
It is the best jacket I've ever owned but not the most comfortable. That lining is actually rough. Compare the lining to a 100% cotton brushed flannel
Yes- brushed cotton flannel would be softer. But I find my jacket super comfortable.
Lovely style and colour organiser! It looks like your pens have a rubber grip? I imagine they 'catch'/drag on the leather pen loop and this is why it's hard to get them in (besides that they might be on the thicker side for the size of the pen loop)? I really like this Filofax sticky note accessory, might get myself one some day.
Thanks. Yes- the pens in the video are a little thicker. I use a wide range of pens- some thicker, some thinner. I constantly swap them out. What's your favorite to use?
How’s this doing after having it for two years?
It's doing great. I love it! I recently did a 10-day vacation in Arizona where we spent the night in a different hotel every night. Lots of wheeling the suitcase around, on a variety of surfaces, too. It did great. No issues whatsoever.
Do you know what head shape this might fit best? Long-oval, regular oval, etc? Thanks.
I think it fits regular oval the best. Thanks.
Nice review. I have this bag and your assessment is spot on.
Thank you! I appreciate it.
Color sucks!
It's not for everyone- that's for sure.
I agree. I'd say generally their choices of colors are bad.
@@kevinstarski1598, I just received some black ones (different model) that look pretty sharp. Can't go wrong there.
Nice looking jacket! I've seen another variation of this jacket in more of a dark brown color, but I don't see that on their site. Do they still make those? And how has this jacket held up since you've posted the video?
Right now, I'm only seeing the Cinder color available. But the inventory comes and goes. This jacket has held up perfectly so far. No issues whatsoever. I still love it. It's my go-to jacket when I go Jeepin' out in the woods.
@JustinSpeer Awesome to hear! Definitely looking into it for sure. Seems like a fantastic jacket!
Thanks!
Would these be suitable for a EE width foot?
Honestly, not sure. My feet are somewhat slender. There's definitely some room left in them, but it's more in the toe box.
I highly doubt it. Topos are narrow through the mid-foot and heel. They do have an excellent try and return policy, so you can try them without getting stuck with them if they don’t work out.
@@daven.7685, thanks for your help!
Re: color options, I just have to say that while sure, more color options would be nice, at least these aren't bad and they're mostly solid. Topo is the only single hiking/trail runner manufacturer whose shoes aren't completely hideous.
Good point. Yes- I just took these Topo shoes on a 10-day trip through Arizona and received several compliments on them. People seem to like the green color. These held up well for hiking in the Arizona desert as well as kayaking. Several times they were fully submerged in the river and they not only did well on the slippery rocks but also dried out fairly quickly. They never felt waterlogged. I was very impressed.
@@JustinSpeer I have the olive green Pursuits and I was pleasantly surprised that they were better looking in person. The only Topos I've had, but incredibly comfortable. Good to know the Traverse live up to the hype regarding water. I've read a couple negative things in that regard, but they seemed a little nitpicky, as if they may had been expecting for their entire foot and shoe to magically part the water away from their feet entirely.
Thanks. I've got the Terraventure 4 WP's on the way, but I think my next Topo purchase after that will be the Pursuits.
Hi, what attachment do you recommend for the bottom/base of the backpack?
I use either Nite Ize Gear Ties or carabiners, depending on what I attach below. Sometimes a sit pad.
Why does it say 30 liter on huckleberry?
That's a great question. It used to say 27L on the Huckberry website. The same pack still shows as 27L on Mystery Ranch's own website. Maybe Huckberry adjusted the size slightly.
What year is this jacket? Because I love the double entry lower pockets... my older Filson does not have that. The older Filson is the same length and is unlined which I like for the versatility of wearing in warmer temperatures.
Hi there. I purchased my jacket in July of 2022. I'm still loving it almost two years later. How old is your jacket?
Tx for the reply Justin...circa 1980. Got it from a thrift shop online Etsy... south of 230 bucks including shipping so I was happy about that vintage made in America
@@katman11, very cool!
I love Pursuits
Do you use your Pursuits on the trail at all, or just around town? That might be my next Topo Athletic purchase. Thanks.
Just got a set in, they fit good, immediately took a 2-mile walk in my neighborhood, very comfortable. Getting ready for the hiking season coming up,
Happy to hear. They really shine on the trail! I'm still waiting for the second pair I ordered- the Terraventure 4 WP's. But I'm in love with the Traverse.
Beautiful hat. I'm still waiting to get mine. Woods are gorgeous. What state is that? Oregon, Washington?
Thanks! This was shot in Oregon along the Molalla River. Hope you like your hat when you get it.
I have a pair of altra timp 4 and love them but want to try Topo. Thanx for the review.
Thanks for watching.
Hey, thanks for doing a deep dive
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
paid ad.
No. I actually bought these shoes myself and have no affiliation with Topo Athletic.
What are your measurements?
I'm 6' 0" and 197 pounds.
I have several pairs of Topo's , but these new Traverse are my favorites! Definitely the most comfortable right out of the box, of any shoe I own.
@@noahlar, thanks for sharing. Topo Athletic is my new favorite shoe brand. So I'm sure at some point I'll buy others.
Did you look into the pelican Apple Watch bumper case?
No, I haven't. Is it pretty good?
Money is to expensive for a child in Bangladesh building those jackets.
Thanks for watching.
What a beautiful wallet, I definitely wouldn’t call that minimalist by any stretch but that shell Cordovan really is amazing!
Yes- the shell Cordovan is really smooth to the touch. Even after a year+ of having it, it's still amazing.
I love seeing a male perspective on Filofax planners or just planners in general! I want to get my SO into them but we’ve just entered the pocket Moleskin notebook phase for him so maybe one day! Great video!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I need to do some follow-up videos on my planners that have aged so well. I love them after they're broken in and have some character. Have a great weekend!
Thanks for your review. Have you had any issue with the ring where rhe leash attaches? I was concerned that it was plastic. Thanks.
Thanks. No- I haven't had any issues. I've had these leashes, collars, and harnesses quite a while now and the only wear and tear on them is that some of the black coating on the rings is wearing off. They're metal and holding up well. I'm waiting for their next sale and plan to buy another set- just to have different colors/patterns. I have so many leashes, collars, and harnesses for my dogs, but these are the go-to ones I use for hiking because they're so lightweight and minimalistic.
There definitely not plastic!
Thanks for the great video! I wish I would've seen this sooner! These swivel carabiners are exactly what I needed, but I see this shop is taking a break. So sad!! :((
I have to say 27 liters it's still a bit small for me. I have this pack in dpm camo which is awesome. I love this huckberry camo tho it's sick. But check out the dpm camo. It's the British woodland camo version. With black mesh on ur back and shoulder straps. But yous is so sick. Nice!! I'll subscribe to give ya another member. Take care.😊
Thanks! Yes- I have the DPM camo pattern on my smaller 21L Mystery Ranch pack and love it. Regarding the size- yeah- for overnight trips, I usually take a bigger pack. I really like my Hyperlite Mountain Gear Southwest 2400 and 4400 for backpacking.
500D cities is not durable I have two packs made of that and I have photos proving that the yoo TV class ten zippers tore right through the circuit in six different places near the tops of the packs they were only usable for 18 months!. $300 .00. A pack!.
Sorry to hear about your experience. My experience has been quite different... I have been using the 500D packs for years and never had any durability issues- and I go hiking every week. I've brushed up against brambles and branches and set them down on rocks... but they've always held up.
Great in depth review
Good thorough review! Thank you!
Thank you!
Did you "enjoy" the gloves? Four-minutes to tell the audience "enjoy" over and over. What about weight? What about water resistance? Breathability? What about trekking-pole durability? Seems like a "review" might've included that and more in four-minutes?
Good points. I appreciate the feedback. I mention the breathability a few times in the video. However, I don't use trekking poles, so I haven't tried the gloves with those. But I appreciate the tips you provided. Thanks.
there is definately no comparison to filofax a5, i have tried a few cheaper ones, pretty but nup, love mine too. i put pouch at front, better.
