To make camping and hiking more accessible to the many consumers who may have an interest in the hobby but just aren't ready to invest in some of the pricier gear that's on the market, Backcountry launched 'Stoic.'
The line features a wide array of tents, sleeping bags and pads, camping furniture, hiking accessories, and apparel, which is offered in men's, women's, and children's sizing. As Gear Junkie points out, a few highlights from the collection include the 'Stoic Madrone 4-Person Tent' for car camping, the 'Stoic Driftwood 2-Person Backpacking Tent,' which is more lightweight and provides three-season protection, and the comfortable water-repellent 'Groundwork 20 Degree Sleeping Bag.'
Backcountry's Stoic line is available through the brand's web store, where shoppers can categorize the products based on sizing and activity.
