NOTES
We’re fans of any footwear that
lets us look good in a pub and
helps us bug-out through the
backcountry. After all, when fe-
ces truly hits the fan, you might
not have time to stop, take off
your dress shoes, and secure a
pair of hiking boots. The Terrex
Two Parley features lightweight
EVA midsoles for cushioning
and tough outsoles made of
Continental rubber with a tread
pattern inspired by a mountain-
bike tire. Meanwhile, the upper is
made from knitted Parley Ocean
Plastic yarn, which is reclaimed
and recycled marine waste that
feels like your favorite pair of
socks. While this trail-running
shoe isn’t meant for hard-core
trekking, the Terrex Two Parley
will get you over dirt and rocks
far better and more comfortably
than your wingtips.

NOTES
In most parts of the northern
hemisphere, summer is here, and
it’s time to show some skin. But
not too much skin, of course.
The Griffith Hybrid Short will let
you air out your legs comfort-
ably and give you plenty of func-
tionality for your next outdoor
adventure — all the while still
looking pretty fashionable. Made
of a blend of polyester, recycled
plastic, and spandex heather
twill, this short is moisture-
wicking to keep you dry, stretchy
to eliminate any binding in the
crotch, and soft to the touch un-
like other sandpapery polyester
apparel. It has two front slash
pockets, one plain back pocket,
one zippered back pocket, a
zippered front cargo pocket,
a small coin pocket, and both
2-inch belt loops and an interior
drawstring waist.7 MAKE & MODELFeetures

NOTES
As sports socks disguised
as dress socks, the Uptown
Ultra Light Crew comes in four
color patterns that’ll match
everything from your business
slacks to your golf shorts. But
they’ll also let you pound out a
few miles of pavement during
your daily run. Its anatomical
design and seamless toe gives
the user a conforming fit that
increases comfort and reduces
the chances of blisters, while the
ultra-thin construction provides
cushioning without taking up a
lot of room in your shoes. Plus,
Feetures’ Targeted Compres-
sion provides support where
your feet need it the most. And
thanks to the iWick spun poly-
ester fibers, the Uptown offers
both moisture management and
long-term durability.8 TITLE & AUTHORBushcraft – The Bow

NOTES
Unlike what you might see in
the movies or various “real-
ity” TV survival shows, trying
to spark and maintain a flame
using a bow drill requires lots
of patience, endurance, and
elbow grease. But U.K. survival
researcher and instructor Leigh
Robinson hopes to make this
technique less painful for you
with his book, Bushcraft – The
Bow Drill Bible. This 5x8-inch
field manual has color photos
and easy-to-follow instructions
on how to master the bow drill
basics. While it might not have
the prettiest art direction, the
paperback lays out the funda-
mentals of fire-starting, how
to craft a bow drill set, and the
best materials to use whether
you’re in the United Kingdom or
North America. We also appreci-
ate the tips section on how to
troubleshoot common mistakes.6875
