OUTDOOR APPAREL: HOW TO CREATE THE PERFECT OUTFIT

Summer is almost here. This is the best time to spend time outdoors, get in touch with nature and have many fantastic adventures.
Whether it is a hike in the mountains, a walk near the coast or a day spent exploring trails and villages perched among hills and slopes, the most important thing is to be well prepared. That is why technical outdoor clothing must be chosen carefully, but without sacrificing one's personal style. Cotton T-shirts, jackets and vests made of technical fabric, lightweight, breathable and above all waterproof, to be combined with practical backpacks and spacious and comfortable bags. On your feet a pair of boots, a hat to protect yourself from the sun and you're done. But what are the best brands for outdoor clothing?

Definitely Goldwin, a Japanese brand that has always stood out for its ability to combine the most advanced manufacturing technologies with a clean, minimalist design. By paying great attention to detail, Goldwin ensures uncompromising performance. Many of its garments are made of Rip-Stop fabric, a lightweight, breathable material that ensures perfect waterproofing. Goldwin's jackets, pants and shorts feature quality and technical details while maintaining comfort and convenience. They are an optimal choice for those who wish to experience unforgettable adventures without sacrificing the street and urban style typical of Japanese fashion. We continue to be inspired by Asian style, and fly from Japan to Korea with East Harbour Surplus. This international brand, based in Florence, makes military-style jackets and suits with a unique and typically Italian style and quality. East Harbour Surplus garments are lightweight, made from linen and cotton, perfect for even the hottest days. The care and attention with which they are made can be appreciated especially in the hooded vests and jackets, as well as in pants and shorts, all in perfect cargo style, with many practical pockets. Garbstore, a British brand specializing in vintage-inspired workwear, is also a perfect choice to stand out not only in urban environments, but also during excursions and out-of-town trips. Garbstore jackets, made of linen and cotton, are easy to noice because of their many spacious pockets, making these garments a true must-have for those seeking comfort and practicality. Outdoor clothing would not be the same without Gramicci. With over 30 years of experience in the industry, this California-born brand is loved and appreciated worldwide for its quality garments, a mandatory choice for anyone preparing for an outdoor adventure. It is no coincidence that so many innovations in the outdoor industry started thanks to Gramicci. For example, the famous G-shorts. Made of cotton twill, these shorts are sturdy and durable, yet remain lightweight, soft and comfortable. To its collection, Gramicci also adds cargo pants, t-shirts with fun prints and patterns, and colourful baseball caps. For a day out in nature, exploring forests, valleys or small towns, it is necessary to be well-equipped and prepared for any unforeseen event. For this reason, it is important to complete your outfit with the right accessory. One of the most well-known and beloved brands for all outdoor enthusiasts is Filson. Since 1897, Filson has been the brand of choice for explorers, hikers, sailors and adventurers of all kinds. Filson's garments have always been made with the highest quality materials to ensure the best possible performance even in the harshest weather conditions. Filson's bags and backpacks feature roll-up zippers that, combined with the nylon fabric from which they are made, make them waterproof and perfect for activities such as rafting and high-altitude hiking. But there are also many product lines in cotton twill, equally durable but with a more casual style, also perfect for a street and urban look. Finally, to make sure you reach your destination successfully, choosing the right footwear is crucial. Straight from Australia, Blundstone's Chelsea Boots are more than just boots. Comfortable, practical and durable, the Blundstones are made of leather (but they also offer a vegan version), have a contoured insole to support the foot and protect the heel from impact, and a double tongue for easy wearing. From the Original series to the Blundstone Active, designed specifically for warmer climates, Blundstone ankle boots will be the finishing touch to make your outfit perfect. Well-equipped and impeccably styled, you are now ready for even the most incredible adventure!
