Outdoors and Camping

Built on the same Transit Custom as Ford's Nugget camper van, the new Westfalia Kipling features a layout more similar to a full-size van camper, just shrunken down into mid size. "Kipling" is a solid name, but we think of it as the "Twisted Nugget."

Ford has been busily debuting new Nugget camper vans over the past few years, and it's now preparing to reveal the one it calls "completely winter-proof." The fully hard-sided four-sleeper Nugget High Roof will offer something VW doesn't.

We know Lifestraw best for lightweight, ultraportable water filter and purification products aimed at backcountry use, but its all-new Escape is a different beast. The jug supplies groups with over 5 gallons of clean drinking water per fill-up.

Hardkorr Campers has been on a tear expanding its compact Xplorer trailer series. But what good is a small, nimble 'hardkorr' all-terrain camper if you can't bring along your favorite toys to wring the most fun out of long days in the wilderness?

The instant you see the all-new CrossWave, you realize it's not your average PWC, even though it is a Yamaha WaveRunner. It's really more of a PWC-driven mini-boat meant to blend full-throttle thrills into a versatile, long-range adventure platform.

Years ago, the Action Camper Jeep micro-RV sparked a worldly appetite for go-anywhere exploration and camping. After major difficulties getting to market, Action Camper's unique Jeep micro-camping products are finally available as Two Track Campers.

Opinel knives are an ageless classic of the folding knife market. This year, though, they've gotten a new twist ... or lack thereof. The Néo6 knife carries the same sleek, timeless look but trades out the locking blade for a non-locking slip joint.

One of the pioneers of the portable camping stove has released its lightest stove ever. The new Primus Micron III weighs a flat 2 oz and folds so small it can nest in your open palm. Screw it atop a gas canister and it fires out 2,600 watts of flame.

After a year on the market, DJI is bringing its Amflow e-MTBs with high-performance Avinox e-drive to the US. But the Amflow PL's particular combination of 800+ watts, 120 Nm of torque and nearly 100 miles of range won't come cheap.

Sunlight's new Vanlife camper van is aimed squarely at young, spontaneous neo-RVers. The adventure camper brings a unique laid-back layout with full separation from the driver's cab, a staircase up to the roof and a convertible lounge/office.

The Basecamp has long served as Airstream's most affordable, adventurous little aluminum camper pod. For 2026, Airstream makes an off-road equipment package standard across the lineup, ensuring every new Basecamp is ready to fully explore.

One of the newest releases from Nextool, the W4 appears at first to be a basic adjustable wrench. But not only does it pack 10 more features inside its handle, it carries a small switch that extends its functionality well beyond other multi-wrenches.
