I know this blog is dedicated to women’s gear reviews, but I thought it would be fun to put together a list of sexy outdoor gift ideas for your very own mountain man. Plus a man in flannel cooking up some tasty camp eats makes a nice accessory for any outdoor gear gal.
(1) Icebreaker Wool Boxers
I have already gushed about the awesome-ness of Icebreaker’s Hipkini Underwear for women so why not pick up a pair of Icebreaker underroos for your man. They are made from a super soft merino wool that dries quickly, wicks moisture, and breathes well making them perfect for outdoor fun not to mention the fact that they are super sexy!
Where to Buy:
- Amazon
- Best selection at Backcountry
(2) Flannel Shirt
Thank goodness flannel is back in style since nothing says mountain man more than a good flannel. Go dressy flannel, rugged flannel, or organic flannel – just go flannel!
Great Picks:
(3) Sleeping Bag For Two
Getting your man a couple’s sleeping bag is great for two things, he can use it alone and comfortably sprawl out on solo car camping trips or for its intended purpose, plenty of cuddle time with you under the stars. Double bags can be bulky and heavy so make sure to check the weight and packability before you buy.
Great Picks:
(4) Mountain Khakis Alpine Utility Pants
Get your man in a pair of Mountain Khakis Alpine Pants and he is certifiably a mountain man. These pants are seriously well built, super rugged and tough, and look great while chopping things. Great for hiking, camping, hunting, or just tooling around in the yard, the MK Alpine Pants have reinforced knees and seat panels, reinforced heel cuffs, and triple-stitched seams so they will stand up to whatever life throws at them.
Where to Buy:
(5) Hydro Flask Growler
Great for beer afficandos and budding brewmasters, the Hydro Flask Growler keeps beer and water cold for up to 24 hours. I have been using a Hydro Flask water bottle for years and can vouch for its unbelievable ability to keep cold things cold even while sitting in a hot car all day. Hydro Flasks are made from high quality stainless steel and the double vacuum insulation keeps cold things cold and the classy exterior never sweats.
Where to Buy:
(6) An Axe
Yup an axe, also known as a hatchet. Pairs nicely with Mountain Khakis Alpine Pants and Patagonia Flannel. Great for chopping wood and yup that is about it. Will entertain man for hours in woods.
Great Picks:
(7) Prana Mojo Shorts
“You can’t lose your Mojo if you are wearing it,” says prAna. Perfect for climbing, doing a little yoga at camp, and lounging the day away, the Prana Mojo Shorts are made out of a lightweight poly microfiber that breathes easily and dries quickly. Get your man these and you may be more likely to drag him to yoga with you.
