In this episode of the podcast, Tayson sits down with the lead product designer of Outdoor Vitals, Brigham Crane, to discuss OV’s new 10 Piece Adaptive Clothing System created to help people layer for warmth and comfort in the outdoors. As backpackers, we need a collection of clothing that functions as tools to allow us to remain active in the backcountry as long as we want, in any season. By utilizing an Adaptive Performance Clothing System, we will have the right collection of clothing that will keep our bodies performing optimally in the inevitable changing conditions like weather, terrain, and strenuousness of the journey.
