Solstice Sunny Spot of the Week...

You don’t always think green gear when you think rain shell, but check out the award winning North Face Venture Jacket.  Inside the jacket is a castor oil blend coating, which is used on the fabric to make it waterproof and still breathable.  By introducing this jacket last year, The North Face eliminated 50,000 lbs of petroleum-based production pollutants and we all know every little bit counts. Awarded Backpacker Magazine’s GREEN award the Venture Jacket is our pick for a waterproof rain shell at a nice price.

The Go-To Adventure Travel Bag

The Patagonia Blackhole Duffel is the perfect go anywhere bag for weekend trips or a week long trip when you need a super durable water resistant bag. Plus the duffel doubles as a backpack which makes it easy to check onto a plane, throw into a boat then on to your back for a short hike to your next destination.  It’s also the perfect bag when it’s raining, muddy and your taxi cab is a golf cart.

The duffel comes in three sizes 60L, 90L and 120L and fits fishing rod cases, snorkels, or just about anything. All three sizes are now available at Solstice for your next adventure!
