How We Made This List
Did you know that new camping/outdoor gear is coming out all the time? Every season of the year showcases the latest choices, the newest designs, and the most efficient products.
So, when it came to making a list comprising the very best of the latest gear that is out this year, there were a lot of options to sift through before the best could be definitively identified.
Choosing among the best options for all experience levels wasn’t easy to do, but after considering factors like customer ratings, reviews and specific features and benefits, certain products began to stand head and shoulders above the competition.
So here are the three areas of focus that went into choosing what made the cut for this list:
Personal Experience
The bulk of these products I have tested out myself. In an effort to improve my own outdoor experiences I have been able to find the best products that have made that easier for me personally.
Team Experience
For the products that I haven’t personally used myself, I relied on the experiences of my friends or team members that are experts in various facets of outdoor life.
They know which products have made their hiking or camping more enjoyable or which products were really useful for what they hoped to accomplish.
Features/Benefits
Finally, each product in contention for a spot on this list has its functionality and features examined. This ensures that only the highest quality options make the list and that you are never left questioning if what you bought was worth the investment.
There are all kinds of ways that people get out and enjoy the great outdoors. Whether you enjoy camping, fishing, hiking, or hunting, this list has something for that adventurous spirit of yours.
Take some time looking over each of these options, as there are many in each subdivision that you can choose from. With the amount of time that has been spent compiling the Adventure Gears Lab Top Picks 2018 list, there is no doubt that everyone seeking an outdoor adventure can benefit from these products.
