14 New Tools for Taking on the Great Outdoors Properly
14 New Tools for Taking on the Great Outdoors Properly
14 款助你从容拥抱户外的全新装备
Outdoor plans are getting ambitious. With airfares on the rise, it’s time to explore the unknown in your own backyard and further afield. But as we’re generally carrying more kit, and staying away longer, your gear has to keep pace—after all, if anything fails in the great wide open, it’s unlikely you’ll have a spare to fall back on. 户外计划正变得越来越宏大。随着机票价格上涨，是时候去探索你家后院乃至更远处的未知之地了。但由于我们通常携带的装备越来越多，在外停留的时间也更长，你的装备必须跟上节奏——毕竟，在广阔的户外如果装备出了故障，你很难找到备用品来救急。
The adventure market is full of noise: “Military-grade,” “expedition-proven,” “built for the harshest environments.” Many of these claims mean very little. After all, a cooler that keeps ice for five days sounds great until you realize you’re carrying an extra 15 pounds to achieve this goal. This guide not only cuts through the hype and focuses on the gear that will serve you well in a pinch, it also makes sure you have as much fun as possible while enjoying the open skies, tree-lined trails, and sandy beaches. 探险装备市场充斥着各种噱头：“军用级”、“探险认证”、“专为最严苛环境打造”。许多此类宣传其实意义不大。毕竟，一个能保冰五天的冷藏箱听起来很棒，但当你意识到为了实现这个目标需要额外背负 15 磅重量时，就不会这么想了。本指南不仅剔除了炒作，专注于那些能在关键时刻为你提供帮助的装备，还确保你在享受蓝天、林间小径和沙滩时，能获得尽可能多的乐趣。
Here’s our selection of flashlights, tents, kites, and cookers, not to mention a few surprises (a wheelchair-friendly shelter and a frisbee game from a camping chair brand). Good gear doesn’t make you a better outdoorsperson. It just gets out of your way. These picks do exactly that. 以下是我们精选的手电筒、帐篷、风筝和炊具，更不用说还有一些惊喜（一款适合轮椅使用者的遮阳棚，以及来自露营椅品牌的飞盘游戏）。好的装备不会让你成为更厉害的户外达人，它只是让你在户外活动时不再受阻。而这些精选装备正是如此。
A 3-Person Tent: The North Face Universal Collection Wawona 3 Tent ($435)
三人帐篷：The North Face Universal Collection Wawona 3 帐篷（435 美元）
Consisting of an innovative magnetic-closure sleeping bag, a self-standing, easy-open daypack, and a stylish three-person tent, this laudable, inclusivity-focused collection from The North Face is designed to remove friction points that can prevent people with disabilities from enjoying life outdoors. The freestanding tent is a generous size for a three-person design and comes with equal-length poles for fast, mistake-free pitching. The zippers also have extremely sensible oversized pull tabs, while the low threshold and huge 68.2-square-foot vestibule is big enough to keep two mobility devices safe, dry, and close by. The North Face 推出的这一系列产品值得称赞，它以包容性为核心，包含创新的磁吸式睡袋、自立式易开日用背包以及时尚的三人帐篷，旨在消除阻碍残障人士享受户外生活的障碍。这款自立式帐篷对于三人设计来说空间非常宽敞，并配有等长帐杆，可实现快速、零失误的搭建。拉链采用了非常人性化的大号拉环，低门槛设计和 68.2 平方英尺的巨大前厅足以让两台代步设备安全、干燥地放置在身边。
A Lightweight Stove: Optimus Gemini II ($199)
轻量化炉具：Optimus Gemini II（199 美元）
Traditional compact camping stoves heat water with ease, but when you want to do more than survive on rehydrated meals and instant noodles, this twin 4,600-watt burner setup gives you the freedom to get creative in your camp kitchen. Weighing just 1 pound, 10 ounces, and measuring 12 x 2.76 x 4.14 inches when folded, it’s easy to carry, the Piezo ignition is highly adjustable, and thanks to the serious power, you can boil a liter of water in just four minutes, or get your gnocchi simmering and parmigiano reggiano and sage cream sauce reducing in seconds. 传统的紧凑型露营炉具加热水很方便，但如果你不想只靠脱水食品和方便面度日，这款双头 4600 瓦炉具能让你在营地厨房自由发挥创意。它重量仅 1 磅 10 盎司，折叠后尺寸为 12 x 2.76 x 4.14 英寸，便于携带。压电点火装置调节灵活，得益于强劲的火力，你可以在四分钟内烧开一升水，或者迅速煮好面疙瘩，并调制出帕尔马干酪鼠尾草奶油酱。
A 3D-Knit Windbreaker: Uppervoid Aegis S Jacket ($145)
3D 针织防风夹克：Uppervoid Aegis S Jacket（145 美元）
In a sea of Arc’teryx shells and Salomon hiking shoes, Vancouver-based Uppervoid offers a timely new take on the gorpcore aesthetic. For something impressively original, check out the color grading on its new hardshell jackets, but for the warmer months, this ultra-lightweight windbreaker ticks our trail running boxes. Made from 3D-knitted Toray Airtastic 7D fabric, it is impossibly soft and thin, weighs just 2.8 ounces, yet feels reassuringly durable on the trails. Underarm venting helps heat escape when you start working hard, and it stuffs down so small you’ll forget it’s even in your pack. 在满大街的始祖鸟冲锋衣和萨洛蒙徒步鞋中，总部位于温哥华的 Uppervoid 为“山系穿搭”（gorpcore）美学带来了耳目一新的诠释。如果你追求独特，可以看看他们新款硬壳夹克的色彩渐变设计；而对于温暖的季节，这款超轻防风夹克非常适合越野跑。它采用 3D 针织 Toray Airtastic 7D 面料制成，触感柔软轻薄得不可思议，重量仅 2.8 盎司，但在山径上却表现出令人放心的耐用性。腋下通风设计有助于在剧烈运动时散热，且收纳后体积极小，你甚至会忘了它的存在。
A Hard-Sided Cooler: Coleman Snap ‘N Go Collapsible Hard Cooler ($199)
硬壳冷藏箱：Coleman Snap ‘N Go 可折叠硬壳冷藏箱（199 美元）
Available in 35-, 45-, and 55-quart versions, Coleman’s ingenious collapsible hard-sided cooler expands or folds in seconds and brilliantly shrinks to one third its size for easy storage. Unlike most soft coolers, it still works properly, promising ice retention for up to 64 hours. Coleman also includes an antibacterial removable liner to keep your cooler stink-free, although be warned, without any wheels on the bottom, once the larger size is full of ice and drinks, it’s just as heavy as the competition to maneuver. Coleman 这款巧妙的可折叠硬壳冷藏箱有 35、45 和 55 夸脱三种规格，可在几秒钟内展开或折叠，并能出色地缩小至原体积的三分之一，便于存放。与大多数软质冷藏包不同，它依然保持了良好的性能，承诺长达 64 小时的保冰时间。Coleman 还附带了一个可拆卸的抗菌内衬以保持箱内无异味。不过需要提醒的是，由于底部没有轮子，当大尺寸型号装满冰块和饮料时，搬运起来和同类产品一样沉重。
A Mini Truck: Telo MT1 Electric Mini Truck ($41,250)
迷你卡车：Telo MT1 电动迷你卡车（41,250 美元）
Billed as having Toyota Tacoma capability, Tesla range, and a Mini Cooper footprint, this 5-seat EV truck designed by Yves Béhar goes from 0 to 60 mph in 6 seconds and carries a 2,000-pound payload. It has a towing capacity of up to 6,600 pounds, too, while the configurable mid-partition can increase the bed size to accommodate 4 x 8-foot plywood sheets (or, indeed, 8-foot surfboards when the swell calls). Dual-motor versions target 0 to 60 mph in around 4 seconds, while the largest battery option teases up to 350 miles of range. If you’re concerned about performance off the asphalt, the MT1 has 10 inches (25.4 centimeters) of ground clearance and independent suspension, which means this compact EV carrier should have genuine off-road capability. 这款由 Yves Béhar 设计的 5 座电动卡车号称拥有丰田 Tacoma 的性能、特斯拉的续航以及 Mini Cooper 的占地面积。它从 0 加速到 60 英里/小时仅需 6 秒，载重能力达 2,000 磅。其牵引能力高达 6,600 磅，可配置的中间隔板能扩大货箱尺寸，以容纳 4 x 8 英尺的胶合板（或者在浪况合适时装下 8 英尺的冲浪板）。双电机版本 0 到 60 英里/小时加速时间约为 4 秒，最大电池选项预计续航里程可达 350 英里。如果你担心非铺装路面的表现，MT1 拥有 10 英寸（25.4 厘米）的离地间隙和独立悬挂，这意味着这款紧凑型电动车具备真正的越野能力。
A Field Watch: Vaer C3 Korean Field Watch ($299)
野战手表：Vaer C3 Korean Field Watch（299 美元）
With origins as rugged, “no-frills” military timepieces, field watches are ideal for the outdoors. This US-made 36-mm Vaer is rated for 100-meter water resistance, and with a durable single-dome sapphire crystal and 316L stainless steel casing, it’s properly durable, rather than being just military-inspired. It’s also available in 40 mm, and if you don’t like this khaki NATO, there’s a solid collection of straps, including rubber, stainless steel, and leather, that can transition it easily from backcountry to boardroom. Its outdoor credentials are sealed by the fact that this watch is solar: Just six hours of sunlight will provide six months of power reserve, and it draws power from any light source (even candlelight). 野战手表起源于坚固耐用、简洁实用的军用计时器，是户外活动的理想选择。这款美国制造的 36 毫米 Vaer 手表具备 100 米防水等级，配有耐用的单拱形蓝宝石水晶镜面和 316L 不锈钢表壳，它不仅是军风设计，更是实打实的耐用。它还有 40 毫米版本可选，如果你不喜欢这款卡其色北约表带，还有橡胶、不锈钢和皮革等多种表带可供选择，让你轻松从野外切换到会议室。其户外属性的终极证明在于它是太阳能驱动的：只需六小时阳光照射即可提供六个月的动力储备，且它能从任何光源（甚至是烛光）获取能量。
Outdoor Games: Helinox HeliDisc ($99)

Helinox has taken the same lightweight aluminum engineering that made its camping chairs famous and applied it to a series of fun and portable outdoor games.
