It’s hard to believe that it’s August and the Summer is almost over! For parents and kids alike, this can be a chaotic and exciting time of year. Especially, for college students! Let’s talk about some must-haves to help make campus life a little bit easier.
- A Good Backpack: With so many different types and styles, choosing a backpack is like choosing a good pair of shoes. Make sure you select one that is comfortable for all-day carry. Totes and crossbody bags may look cool, but in the long run they are bad for your back when walking around all day.
- Hydro Flask: Hydration on the go! The Hydro Flask is the perfect go-anywhere companion on your busiest days. It stashes easily in a small shoulder bag, your pack’s side pocket or your car cup holder, and holds enough to keep you going for hours without weighing you down.
- Osprey Ultralight Roll Organizer: When living in a dorm, space is limited! Keep small items such as toiletries or tech gear like USB drives, chargers, or cables in one spot and neatly organized.
- Goal Zero Rock Out 2 Rechargeable Speaker: Amped up sound, external controls, and weather resistant for excursions and impromptu dance parties. The Rock Out 2 Portable Speaker amplifies tunes from your MP3, phone or laptop for over 20 hours without draining battery power from your device. Compatible with any device that uses an audio output jack.
- Goal Zero Flip 10 Recharger: A full recharge on a tablet means you're ready to power through whatever the day throws at you! Designed to give a single charge on small devices and quickly charge up from USB or the Sun.
- Black Diamond Spot Headlamp: Great for running at night or reading, this powerful little headlamp features seven different lighting modes, including red night vision, allowing for customizable light in any situation.
- The North Face Thermoball Jacket: Get ultimate all-weather versatility in this full-featured, do it all, midweight jacket that has ThermoBall™ insulation, which is just as compressible as down and insulates even when wet.
- Rainwear: There are some days when an umbrella just won’t do and for rainy days like that, you’ll be glad you have a rain jacket to keep you dry! Plus, they dry quickly and can usually be folded up and stored in your backpack.
- Kelty Mesh Low-Love Chair: Perfect for all-day summer festivals or the dorm, the Mesh Low-Love features dual insulated beverage holders, adjustable armrests, a slightly reclined seat-back, and a durable steel frame. Plus, the Roll-Tote carry bag makes the chair easier to pack and doubles as a firewood/gear tote.
- Mess Kits: Perfect for dorm rooms, mess kits provide everything you need in one cost-effective, non-breakable, and easy clean-up kit!
