You've already felt it—the slight evening chill that arrives as summer comes to an end. This is nature's cue to pick up that new fleece you've been eyeing.

Late–summer hikes can tend to start cool before getting hot. Dress for the day with a pair of tough, comfortable hiking pants that can easily adapt as the day progresses.

Windbreakers are the perfect lightweight, transitional layer. Throw one on for morning hikes, then pack it away when the temps climb.

Your new go-to knife for camping, hiking and daily use is here. Plus, grab this exclusive color, only available at REI.
