The Keen Howser Slippers ($60) seem to be the perfect partner for any cabin experience. It has the look of a puff jacket, warmth of a sleeping bag, and the versatility of natural rubber outsoles.
The Howser features a soft microfleece lining for toasty feet and Gore elastic side panels for easy on and off. It also comes in multiple color options.
The Zeal Optics Transcend GPS Goggle ($399) is probably the coolest idea for skiing or snowboarding that we’ve seen in a long time. It truly brings the future to the weekend snow warrior.
Coming out in early December, the Transcend has a built in GPS chip and offers real-time statistics such as speed, altitude, vertical distance traveled, and more. There’s an LCD display mounted inside the goggle so you’ll have access to all the information while bombing down the slopes. It also has a rechargeable lithium-ion battery so you’ll have plenty of juice for 7 hours worth of runs.
The Transcend has a built-in USB port so you can download and analyze your day. The included software has a Google Map overlay so you can plot and measure all your runs.
All in all it sounds a little excessive but wow we want one.
The Women’s Sorel Mackenzie Holiday Slip Tall Boots ($140) offer a great holiday look due to its festive plaid design. The boots offers a waterproof leather upper, interior moisture-wicking fleece lining, and an internal removable footbed.
Available in two plaid color designs.
You want lightweight, you get lightweight with the new Patagonia M10 Jacket ($399). Weighing in at a mere 10.8 ounces, this 3-layer hard shell is perfect for the alpine minimalist.
The M10 offers protection from the elements with its waterproof and breathable nylon ripstop fabric, a single pull adjustable helmet-compatible hood, and watertight zippers.
Talk about a premium boot! When we saw the Sorel Caribou Premium 1G Boot, we knew we had to write about it. This cold weather flagship boot is both luxurious and functional.
For $1000 (that’s right 1000 big ones), you get a seam-sealed, waterproof boot that’s -40° rated, a removable 9mm ThermoPlus felt Innerboo, and most importantly a unique and premium ostrich leather upper.
It’s definitely the boot for an adventurer who has the best and needs the best.

The bottle is made out of 18/8 food grade stainless steel and it has a slim shape that can fit in most cup holders. This is the perfect solution for those who wish to have a bottle that works as well outdoors as well as in the office.
Here’s a new innovative way to get down the slope with the Skki by Trikke Carving Vehicles. No need for boots or bindings, the Skki features a unique tri-ski design that uses custom, wood-core shaped skis and a padded handlebar to control your movements. The frame folds up for easy storage too. A unique holiday gift for those snow enthusiasts in your family.
