BMX meets fat bike, a wi-fi duffel bag (really), a bison “down jacket” and more.
On the Radar
Reveals, New Launches and Gear
United By Blue Ultimate American Jacket
The latest in non-down outerwear is United By Blue’s bison-hair-insulated jacket. The waterproof four-layer jacket features a removable vest and 14 pockets for prime versatility as fall inches towards winter. The naturally temperature-regulating bison fibers make it great for temperatures between -10 and 45 degrees Fahrenheit. And lastly, it’s made entirely in the USA.
SE Bikes Fat Ripper
Fat biking’s getting big (pun not intended). SE Bikes’ Fat Ripper combines BMX elements like alloy Floval tubing, a Looptail rear end and Landing Gear Forks with 26 x 3.5-inch tires, disc brakes and more.
Voyager Duffel
The compact Voyager Duffel was made with leather chosen for its propensity to conform to the belongings within it. And the optional inclusion of Karma Go wi-fi conforms to your tech habits.
