Here are My Top 5 must-have items for beginners.
Hiking Shoes/Boots - This should be the first thing you get. Having comfortable footwear is definitely a Must!!! Make sure you get half a size bigger. (A) Helps if you kick a rock so you won’t stub your toes. (B) As you keep climbing and elevation is high, you might experience some bloating or swelling, so that extra half size will come through for you.
Comfortable clothing - This will be key in helping you either stay warm or cool on your hikes. Check out our products; the long sleeve is my personal favorite.
Water Pack - Choose a backpack that holds enough water for your adventure. If you plan to hike a lot and make this your thing, I recommend buying one at REI (soley based) on their return and warranty policy. Also, Walmart and Amazon have good starter packs. Remember to pack plenty of water.
A Hat - Get yourself a cap to provide you extra protection from the sun. TIP: Get our logo hats, they make you look good.
A Good Attitude - Spreading positivity during your hike will make you and your companions feel good.
