I’ve been riding the Jetblue wave since 2002 (you know, the usual high school cross-country romance made possible by $49 each way tickets). But now there’s more to love than those roomy seats.
Enter Live From T5: James Blunt in Concert.

There’s nothing I love more than dressing the part, especially when your clothing is the only thing left to hold on to. From climbing a volcano to pitching a tent at ‘Roo, navigating the great outdoors is no small feat…. and neither is looking cool while climbing. Adrenaline is the name of the game, and Gilt & Jetsetter are in it to win it. Check out the Outdoor Adventurer sale, now through December 7th with serious ski vacations like the Cervo Hotel in Switzerland. I mean seriously, who doesn’t look sexy in googles!?

There’s not much that gets me going like some good ol’ Asian History, and @WarriorFootwear comes with one heck of a story. 1935, Shanghai. Olympians, politicians and the common man sported a shoe that would one day become a household name.

For those who could afford the Warrior WB-1, its distinctively modern and striking design provided an escape from the dull socialist environment surrounding the people of China. Reborn in 2008, Warrior’s current unisex collection re-emphasizes a pedigree of classic silhouettes and simple definition. I sat down with Danny Danesh from Warrior Footwear to see just what a warrior is made of…

Usually it’s the military that comes up with innovations first, which then trickle down into civilian life. But in this case, it was Camelbak that did the inventing. The brand’s innovative, hands-free hydration system was first beloved by bikers, hikers and runners before catching on with soldiers in the field. The secret’s in the straws: These state-of-the-art backpacks and waistpacks retain liquids in a washable, lightweight bladder attached to a long straw. Studies have shown that athletes who wear Camelbak products hydrate themselves more frequently, and therefore perform better — just one reason U.S. troops who serve in hot, dry climates rely on Camelbak for hands-free hydration. Talk about your weekend warriors. Now, if only I’d been smart enough to Camelbak it up at Coachella….
