Outdoor Apparel

Equipping the whole family for camping means prioritizing layers, durability, and weather protection. For men, women, and kids, the core principle is to avoid cotton (which holds moisture) in favor of moisture-wicking synthetics (like polyester/nylon) or merino wool.

Base layers (underwear, long-sleeved tops/bottoms) wick sweat. Mid-layers (fleeces, insulated jackets, vests) provide warmth. The outer layer is crucial: waterproof/windproof jackets and pants protect from the elements. Look for features like UPF sun protection, quick-drying fabrics, and even insect repellent treatment

Essential items include hiking boots or sturdy shoes with good grip, wool socks, hats (sun hats and beanies), gloves, and comfortable, durable pants (convertible or cargo styles are popular). Don't forget swimsuits and casual clothes for campsite relaxation. Ensure proper fit for all, especially kids, allowing freedom of movement for endless outdoor fun.
