Trail Shoes

When it comes to kicking off a hike and staying comfortable for the long term I trust these Trail Shoes. They are comfortable, durable, and at around 14 Ounces I can keep them in my pack when Heavy Duty Boots are called for. They are light, comfortable, and allow me the option of running in comfort if I need to.

Pre apocalypse, that makes them perfect for when you want to cover ground quickly or just get some cardio in. Maybe you have a pickup scheduled at the trail head and you took too much time enjoying nature. Now you have to make that time up. Much easier to that in these Shoes than in hiking boots!

Post apocalypse, these Trail Shoes are perfect for when you have a long walk ahead, which just might turn into a run. Take care of your feet! If you can’t move you are dead!

Trail Shoes Scoring

These Trail Shoes can have a High Impact on your survival and score 891/1000. Vehicles are going to stop running quickly when the big one hits. Your feet are going to be your primary mechanism to get around. You better take care of them!

Polarized Sunglasses

I was out on a hike recently, walking around the lake before everyone woke up. It was beautiful and quiet. As the sun came up over the trees I found myself walking into the sun, which had two effects on me. The first is that I was squinting because I didn’t have my Polarized Sunglasses, and the second was that I almost walked right up on a momma dear and her fawns. Lucky for me she noticed me and bolted away from me, versus into my chest.

Of course this could have been much worst. If it was a bear, or a zombie, I might not have been so lucky.

If you are lucky enough to not need glasses then these Sunglasses are perfect. Otherwise, I highly recommend getting prescription Sunglasses. When the sun is in your eyes it is hard to see, track motion, and generally function.

Polarized Sunglasses Scoring

These Polarized Sunglasses can have a Low Impact on your survival and score 30/100 on the survival scale.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • AcuTint polarized lens system
  • Hard coated for scratch resistance
  • Lightweight and durable
  • Crystal gunmetal frame with smoke lens
  • UVA and UVB protection
  • Acu-Tint lens coloring system adds color contrast without distorting natural colors, allowing you to see more clearly
  • 100% Protection From Harmful UVA and UVB Rays

Mosquito & Tick Protection Pants

These Mosquito & Tick Protection Pants are a key article of clothing for anyone spending time outdoors. Bug spray and lotions are great, but if you plan on being out on the trail for days or even weeks, carrying that much spray/lotion isn’t realistic. A Mosquito Repellent Suit is awesome, but it is not always practical. If you are moving through brush and brambles it will just get ripped to shreds. That is why we have layered plans right? If the Mosquito Repellent Suit isn’t going to work, the next layer in insect defense is these Pants!

Now factor in a natural disaster of any sort, where everything will fly off the shelf and be out of stock in hours or days. When it comes to being outside, especially if I’m going cross country or hunting, I wear my Mosquito & Tick Protection Pants. They are the perfect way to keep the bugs from biting!

You can run out of bug spray, but as long as you packed your Mosquito & Tick Protection Pants you won’t have to worry about getting eaten alive. That is important in a disaster scenario. You can’t just run out and get more bug spray. The stores will already be looted.

I also use them as pajamas, because who wants to wake up covered in ticks.

Mosquito & Tick Protection Pants Scoring

These Mosquito & Tick Protection Pants can have a High Impact on your survival and score 604/1000 on the survival scale.

  • Made in the USA!
  • These are not Chinese disposable under armor!
  • Built to last and protect against all variety of biting insects!
  • Rynoskin is an effective defense against mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers, no-see-ums, black flies, sand fleas, ants and many other biting insects.  
  • Enjoy the outdoors again.
  • Tested to be cool & comfortable, chemical free, and breathable.  
  • Must have for hunting, fishing, hiking, and every other outdoor activity.
  • Lightweight and effective. Reduces 99% chance of being bit.

Ballistic Goggles

I keep a pair of Ballistic Goggles clipped to my Bug Out Tactical Vest. I have another set I keep with my shooting gear. When I’m shooting at my buddy’s farm I like to wear them to target shoot and step through the different stations. You have to wear the gear you plan on using in a survival situation. Don’t wait until your life depends on it to figure out how they fit and change your sight picture when picking targets.

Pre disaster these Ballistic Goggles are perfect to protect you from flying brass at the range. Better yet you can use them for airsoft. Airsoft is a great way to practice moving and shooting, and also teaches you exactly how silly most action movies are. If you are in the open or any part of your body is exposed – it is going to get hit.

During and post disaster these Ballistic Goggles will become a second skin. You can’t afford an eye injury that impacts your ability to see. Your survival quite literally depends on it. If scavengers or other survivors try to take what you have there will be rounds flying. That means shattered glass, chunks of drywall, and splinters of wood flying through the air. Not to mention fragments of concrete and lead.

Don’t end up dead because you get blinded and can’t effectively defend yourself anymore.

Ballistic Goggles Scoring

These Ballistic Goggles can have a High Impact on your survival and score 752/1000. You can’t survive if you can’t see. Be prepared!

  • Meets Military (MIL-DTL-43511D) And ANSI-Z87-1 Standards For Ballistic Eyewear Protection
  • Designed To Fit Over Your Prescription Glasses Or Sunglasses
  • Anti-Fog And Anti-Scratch Lenses and UV 400 Protection Treatment
  • Long Lasting Comfort And Breathability

Emergency Blanket

I don’t care if its winter, spring, fall or summer, I have an Emergency Blanket in my pack. I’ve been stuck in cold rain showers in the heat of summer that have left me shivering with blue lips. Without an Emergency Blanket I would have suffered and have a severely reduced ability to move once the rain stopped. Even in warm weather it is possible to get hypothermia. In any other season, and this Emergency Blanket becomes a true must have survival item. In cold weather, having this Emergency Blanket can mean the difference between freezing to death and surviving another day.

I also love how this Blanket is double sided. If I’m freezing to death and waiting for a rescue, the silver reflective side is going to be showing. I keep one with my camping gear, hunting gear, and another in my Vehicle in case I’m the one making the rescue.

On the other hand – if I’m freezing but hiding from scavengers I can wrap myself up and have the olive green or black side exposed to help me stay hidden.

Emergency Blanket Scoring

This Emergency Blanket can have an Extreme Impact on your survival and scores 921/1000 on the survival scale. Don’t freeze to death. Keep an Emergency Blanket with your gear at all times.

  • Extra large (5’ x 7’) double-sided color survival blankets.
  • Only 2 oz per blanket.
  • Perfect for hiking, preppers, first aid.
  • Waterproof and reflects up to 90% of body heat to prevent hypothermia,
  • Massive 7×5 foot emergency blanket..

Compact Water-Resistant EDC Pouch

I love the versatility every Compact Water-Resistant EDC Pouch give me. I have several Tactical Vests that are loaded out with different gear. These EDC Pouches are key to setting them up with different types of gear. I have one that is set up for medical rescue. Another that is built around close quarters and hand guns. And another that is my Bug Out Vest that has a mixture of critical survival gear.

These EDC Pouches are just what you need to carry all those critical supplies with you in a nice compact package. This gives me the flexibility to carry what I need for whatever situation arises. If you are out in the boonies, that might be more food. If you are in a more urban setting that might be ammunition. Sure, ammo is heavy, but if you are in a city when the world falls apart, you are going to need all the ammo you can carry.

A Tactical Vest is the easiest way to make sure you have the gear you need on you when you need it. These Compact Water-Resistant EDC Pouches are critical to store all those items you may need, but also want to keep secure and safe. Plan ahead, make sure you have the gear you need to survive.

Compact Water-Resistant EDC Pouch Scoring

Every Compact Water-Resistant EDC Pouch gives me the ability to bring the gear I need with me. These EDC Pouches can have a High Impact and score 523/1000.

  • 2 tactical pouches included.
  • Durable and tough.
  • Lined with waterproof material.
  • Size: 8.7″L x 4.9″W x 2.2″T
  • Two-way zippers for quick access.
  • Lifetime warranty.

Travel Underwear

I love these Travel Underwear. I’ve worn them on multiple continents including on extremely hot days in India. They are comfortable and light, and wash up well in a sink. Wear them for a few days, hand wash them and hang them up to dry and you will have clean dry underwear in no time. They are great for travel, camping, and hiking. These Underwear let you pack light because they dry so quick. You can wash them and dry them quickly – so you don’t have to pack a spare if you are trying to keep your pack light.

When it comes to hiking, camping, or staying comfortable when its time to hike your way to your bolt hole, trust me when I say you will be glad you are wearing these Travel Underwear.

Travel Underwear Scoring

These Travel Underwear can have a Moderate Impact on your survival and score 267/1000 on the survival scale.

Quick-Dry UV Protection Shirt

This Quick-Dry UV Protection Shirt is nice enough to wear just about anywhere, but it is also designed to be comfortable in the hottest weather. The back air vents keeps the air moving and helps me stay cool by letting air flow evaporate sweat off my body. If I’m not moving through brambles or need the sun protection, I can unzip the sleeves. So if you are in the shade this becomes a short sleeved shirt in a few seconds.

I own the field next to my house and I usually mow up to my neighbors house along that side as the grass grows really fast there. They are two very nice women and they only have a push mower. My tractor can do what might take them an half hour in two passes. This Shirt and my Bucket Hat have saved me from so many sun burns while mowing.

It also my go to for hitting my buddies range. He owns a nice chunk of what is pretty unusable property. It is hilly and rocky and has very sparse tree cover. This Quick-Dry UV Protection Shirt is what I wear to go stand in the sun and plink. Of course it is also great for hiking, camping, and pretty much any other outdoor activity.

Once walking becomes the only way to get around you will be glad you have this UV Protection Shirt. Post disaster the suntan lotion is going to run out. Sun exposure is no joke – especially when you can’t retreat to air conditioning and clean, cold showers whenever you want.

This Quick-Dry UV Protection Shirt can have a Moderate Impact on your survival and scores 261/1000.

Be prepared to move and keep moving, regardless of the temperatures outside with this Quick Dry UV Protection Long Sleeve Shirt.

Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket

This Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket is one of my most prized articles of clothing. When the wind is howling and the temperatures are below freezing this is the Jacket I reach for. I can’t imagine how I would have coped with the elements without this Jacket on several hiking and hunting trips. It has kept me warm when the windchill was dangerous and the air was full of sleet that was coming down sideways. If I have to grab one Jacket and run in the cold weather this is going to be it.

This Hunting Jacket is awesome for everyday cold weather use. It is awesomely prefect when it comes to hunting and spending time in the wood. It has pouches and pockets in all the right places, as well as a pass through for a harness for your Hunting Tree Stand.

Unlike a lot of other windproof jackets that crinkle and make a ton of noise, this SITKA Hunting Jacket is quiet enough for me to stay hidden from game, and anything else in the woods. It also has special covers in the hood so you can hear better. That is useful for hearing what is coming when you are hunting, or being hunted.

Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket Scoring

This Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket can have an Extreme Impact on your survival and scores 919/1000.

Yes, this is an expensive jacket. Yes it is worth every penny. When your life depends on this Jacket for survival you will be glad you went for quality over cheaper budget options.

  • Incredibly quiet, water repellant and 100% windproof jacket.
  • Removable hood with specialized hearing ports.
  • Double layer PolarTec Alpha Direct panels retain heat.
  • Safety Harness Pass-Through Port for hunters.
  • Helps resist light precipitation to keep you dry during quick squalls.
  • Keeps your fingers toasty in zippered hand pockets.
  • Dual zippered chest pockets.

Waterproof Boots

A good pair of Waterproof Boots can make the difference between an easy hike and a miserable slog across along the trail. My advice is buy a pair, and then use them to make a few long walks before you really need them. If you try to break in a new set of Boots on an actual hike you are going to be sorry. Blisters hurt, slow you down, and the skin break leave you open to infections.

Breaking in your Boots is important. Post disaster it is highly likely the only way to get from point A to point B is going to be walking. You better have a good set of boots. They better be broken in and comfortable. Don’t wait until its too late.

Waterproof Boots Scoring

These Waterproof Boots can have a High Impact on your survival and score a 686/1000.

Be ready, be prepared.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • Rubber sole
  • Premium full-grain waterproof leather uppers.
  • Seam-sealed waterproof construction.
  • Rustproof speed lace hardware with hooks at top for secure lacing.
