This may have been the summer of the road trip, but true adventurers know that the best time for a road trip to the mountains is the fall. Cooler temps and changing seasons bring with them better scenery and better stories — by way of rapidly changing weather and drams of whiskey around a campfire. If you're gearing up for a fall road trip, fine tuning your kit should be on your pre-embarking checklist. Elevated essentials like a cold weather jacket and high quality boots from Aether are welcome upgrades for trips to cooler locales. Aether Camber Jacket Few things are as classic as a waxed cotton jacket, and if one thing is for certain it's that Aether is an expert at taking classic silhouettes and updating them with modern tech. The Camber jacket is just such an execution. The worn-in, rugged aesthetic will patina over time and only gets better with wear. The shell is stuffed with 800-fill-power goose down for plenty of warmth. And true to Aether's mission, the beauty of this jacket is in the details. It includes a ribbed knit collar and cuffs, vertical-quilting at the sleeve panel and soft brushed-tricot hand-pocket bags. Plus, if your jacket ever needs to be re-waxed, Aether will send you a tin of wax so you can keep your jacket looking as it should.
