One of Outdoor Life‘s central missions has always been comprehensive coverage of outdoor gear, then letting you know what works, what doesn’t, and how products can be improved. We give that same honest feedback directly to manufacturers.

We’re now using that expertise to develop our own gear under the name OL Guide Life. We’re not just putting our name on existing products. OL’s experts are involved in the entire process, from concept to design to product testing.

The product line starts where many adventures begin: base camp. Whether you’re hunting elk, or at a lakeside fish camp, or at a campground for the weekend with the family, having a home base that is comfortable and inviting makes every activity more enjoyable.

All of the products in the OL Guide Life line are designed to fulfill that goal. They are built for performance and comfort, using the latest technology and materials, but always with an eye on the 120-year-old heritage of the Outdoor Life brand.

Outdoor Life‘s hard-earned reputation for trustworthy gear reviews is something we would never jeopardize. We won’t make anything that doesn’t meet our high standards. Nor we will include OL Guide Life products in any of our usual gear coverage to avoid any conflict of interest.

OL Guide Life is available exclusively from Amazon and at olguidelife.com. Check out part of the line below. Take us to your base camp. Put us to the test. And let us know what you think.
