It’s not every day you can wear a brand’s heritage on your sleeve quite like this new anorak from Haglöfs. Designed with trekking in mind, Haglöfs’ Edge Evo Kurbits Anorak is made from a robust and protective 3-layer Proof Eco fabric that will keep all the elements on the outside with its full water and windproofing. The smock is packed full of rugged detailing (like extra length for added protection) but it’s still stylish enough to pull on any day of the week. While available in a few solid hues, the Anorak also comes in a limited edition Kurbits inspired print — a traditional folk art found in Dalarna, Sweden, the birthplace of Haglöfs’ founder and where the first Haglöfs products were sewn. Made with its signature PROOF™ membrane and careful details, this heritage-inspired smock is an outstanding performance jacket.

Roland-Sands-Jacket-gear-patrol-full-lead

Who Needs Leather? The Perfect Textile Motorcycle Jacket Is Just $175
Save 50%: Fall has officially arrived. The cool weather brings the opportunity to wear the coolest motorcycle gear — but before we fully succumb to the leathers and wool, take advantage of the fact that the extremely cool warm-weather-ready Roland Sands Design Ronin perforated textile jacket is currently featured on sale at RevZilla. The Ronin, like so much classy café racer-style gear, is largely composed of waxed cotton to stand up to a number of different weather conditions. It’s also lined with a cooling mesh interior. Although it is aimed at the around-town café racer rider, it has some adventure-riding features as well, like stretchy cargo stuff pockets and built-in shoulder and elbow pads. Most notable of all: the laser cut perforation that keeps things nice and breezy, but still leaves the jacket tough enough to stand up to abrasion. The Ronin’s cool design (and current sale price of just $175, which is 50% off the usual retail price) will help keep your pits dry during the waning warm months of riding. Or, y’know, you could always buy it now and save it for next spring.

amazonbasics kettle bellAmazon

AmazonBasics Kettlebells
Save up to 28%: Kettlebells are a lifetime purchase — once you buy them, they’ll likely outlast you and your workouts. They’re an alternative to those pricey gym memberships, considering you can upgrade your home gym with just one KB. Need somewhere to start? Try AmazonBasics’s 25-pounder, which was already remarkably affordable but is even more so with its current 28 percent discount. Too light? The 35-pound weight is 23 percent off too. CrossFit has helped bolster kettlebells’ reputation as a must-have gym item and a dynamic alternative to dumbbells. They can be used to ramp up the results of rows, deadlifts and squats, and a properly executed kettlebell swing can increase strength, speed and explosiveness. All this from a hunk of iron with a handle attached. AmazonBasics makes its kettlebells from cast iron and coats them in enamel for a smooth feel and appearance. Given that some kettlebells can cost as much as $200, it’s somewhat remarkable that this one is only $26. Amazon’s kettlebells range from ten to 60 pounds — and that heavyweight one is also on sale in case you’re already a KB pro. — Tanner Bowden
