019 - Beat the Heat: Rain Jackets, Linen, and the Eternal Search for the Right Shorts
<div class="el-h3"> <div class="el-p"> <p dir="auto">We kick things off with the obligatory “what are you wearing?” and a little weather envy—rainy and gray in Boulder, humid and sauna-like in Austin. From there, we tumble into our usual rabbit hole of summer travel style, comparing notes on everything from rain jackets that refuse to age, to linen shirts that are better engineered than some spacecraft. We argue (passionately) about shorts, try to figure out why every technical piece looks too pristine out of the box, and share some trade secrets for scoring sales and coping with the wild world of international sizing.</p> </div> <div class="el-p"> <p dir="auto">Along the way, we diagnose the retail experiences of every outdoor brand store we know (spoiler: if you’ve ever been lost in a Montbell, it’s not just you), share our grievances with Boulder’s Patagonia monoculture, and demonstrate proper Leica battery changes—because who doesn’t want to feel like John Wick on vacation? Naturally, we close it all out with hot takes on approach shoes, unsolicited life advice on field snorkeling, and a solemn promise to deliver more style, more rants, and more questionable summer shopping choices next week.</p> </div> <h3 dir="auto" data-heading="Apparel & Footwear:"> </h3> <h3 dir="auto" data-heading="Apparel & Footwear:">Apparel & Footwear:</h3> </div> <div class="el-ul"> <ul class="has-list-bullet"> <li dir="auto" data-line="0"><a class="external-link" href= "https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/men/jeans/501-original-fit-men-s-jeans/p/005010194" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label= "https://www.levi.com/US/en_US/clothing/men/jeans/501-original-fit-men-s-jeans/p/005010194"> Levi’s 501 Jeans</a></li> <li dir="auto" data-line="1"><a class="external-link" href= "https://tripleaughtdesign.com/products/overland-shirt" target= "_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label= "https://tripleaughtdesign.com/products/overland-shirt">Triple Aught Design Overland Shirt (French twill)</a></li> <li dir="auto" data-line="2"><a class="external-link" href= "https://www.filson.com/products/tin-cloth-short-lined-cruiser-jacket-dark-tan" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label= "https://www.filson.com/products/tin-cloth-short-lined-cruiser-jacket-dark-tan"> Filson Short Lined Tin Cloth Cruiser</a></li> <li dir="auto" data-line="3"><a class="external-link" href= "https://www.vollebak.com/products/planet-earth-jacket" target= "_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label= "https://www.vollebak.com/products/planet-earth-jacket">Vollebak Planet Earth Lightweight Jacket</a> (discontinued)</li> <li dir="auto" data-line="4"><a class="external-link" href= "https://amundsensports.com/collections/ditch-hiker/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label= "https://amundsensports.com/collections/ditch-hiker/">Amundsen Sports Ditch Hiker Collection</a></li> <li dir="auto" data-line="5"><a class="external-link" href= "https://amundsensports.com/collections/traveler/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label= "https://amundsensports.com/collections/traveler/">Amundsen Traveler Collection – Linen</a></li> <li dir="auto" data-line="6"><a class="external-link" href= "https://www.ladywhiteco.com/collections/t-shirts" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label= "https://www.ladywhiteco.com/collections/t-shirts">Lady White & Co.
