1. Crafted from premium, 100-percent (120-gram) wool, Browning’s 120 Merino Hooded Shirt offers all of the comforts of similar offerings at a fraction of the weight. Breathable and itch-free, this base layer wicks away moisture and retains welcome warmth when it’s needed most. Mesh underarm panels provide ventilation, while the elastic hood keeps the wearer toasty. MSRP: $79.99; browning.com
2. Powered by a USB-rechargeable battery as its name implies, the Streamlight Macrostream USB offers versatility in the form of two adjustable power settings, which are toggled by a press of the tailcap switch. The high setting offers 500 lumens with a 2-hour run time, while its low setting is 50 lumens for 8 hours. Measuring 4.5 inches long and tipping the scales at 2.2 ounces, this light is IPX4-rated for water resistance and has a metal pocket clip that also can be clipped to the brim of a hat, leaving hands free for tasks when daylight is short. MSRP: $90; streamlight.com
3. Available for myriad brands and models of revolvers and semi-automatics, the DeSantis Mini Scabbard boasts a minimalist design reduced to the barest of essential concealed-carry features: Molding and an adjustable-tension device keep the gun secure, while the loop along the back can accommodate belts up to 1.75 inches wide. Choose from black or tan. Left- and right-handed models are available. MSRP: $79.99; desantisholster.com
4. From the flutes that span the body of its screwless alloy panels to its 3.55-inch spear-point blade constructed from M390MK steel, the Microtech Cypher II S/E is purpose built. Its “dual-fuel” drive train automatic design allows the blade’s deployment and return at the push of a button, making one-handed manipulation a breeze, even with gloved hands. Check state and local laws regarding automatic knives, as some areas still have prohibitions on “switchblades.” MSRP: $437; microtechknives.com
5. Tuff Products’ QuickStrips Tactical Pouch is designed to conveniently hold one or two of the company’s popular spare-ammo carriers on belts up to 2 inches. Two military-grade bar-tacks hold each reload upright for easy access once the hook-and-loop-backed flap is opened. Choose from three sizes that accommodate most pistol, revolver or rifle rounds and even .410-bore shotshells. Colors include black or coyote brown. MSRP: $17.30; tuffproducts.com
