Apache GWS
$665.00 - $710.00
Description

  15 degrees of windproof, water-resistant boundary-pushing; narrow cut

  The Western Mountaineering Apache GWS is built with attitude! This windproof, highly water-resistant and breathable 15° F bag won't take no for an answer as it pushes the bounds of what a late-summer/early-fall bag can do. A full 3-dimensionally sewn down-filled collar seals in heat when the weather takes a turn for the worse. The slim, heat-efficient cut lets you warm up the bag quickly and makes for a light, compressible package. 19 oz. of high lofting down pumps up a durable 6" of loft. The Apache GWS is a very efficient package that is built like a pint-sized winter bag. At a total weight of around 2 lbs 6 oz, you'll be amazed just how much cold these bags will tame.

  Like all of Western Mountaineering's bags, the Apache GWS is made by hand in San Jose, California. Their down is sourced from free-range mother geese who are never live-plucked or force-fed.

Footprint sold separately.

The Best Dog Crates of 2024
  After a day of running, biking, or hiking with our furry best friends, it’s paramount that we give them a safe and comfortable place to rest or lounge. Enter the dog crate. Crate training your puppy from a young age is one of the most important things a new dog owner can do to ensure your pup’s safety and comfort...
Solo Stove Launches Outdoor ‘Movie Night’: Screen Chairs, Popcorn Maker, and More
  Fire pits were just the beginning. While Solo Stove first wowed us in the 20-teens with its hallmark smokeless campfire magic, it has since expanded again and again into new, loosely fire-related territory (think patio heaters, outdoor tables, and indoor fire bowls).   This week, the Austin firebrand makes perhaps its most ambitious expansion yet — into the world of cinema. Solo...
The Best Running Shoes of 2024
  We used to say running was a pretty simple sport. All you need is a pair of running shoes and clothes, and off you go. However, with the advances in technology these days, we’re second-guessing that concept.   Somehow over the past 25 years, complexity crept in. GPS watch data, Strava segments, hydration vests, and the obligatory social media post-run selfie...
The Best Flip-Flops for Women of 2024
  Whether youre looking for cute flip-flops for a beach vacation, the best flip-flops for outdoor adventures, or just the most comfortable flip-flops to run around town, this toe-free footwear can serve multiple purposes. We know it can be hard to pick out shoes online, so our experts have rigorously tested eight styles of flip-flops for women and we have all...
Velomobile E-Trike, Cosmic COROS Watches, Fishnet Sandals, and More Emerging Gear
  When we sort through new gear each week, we try to showcase products for all the diverse ways of enjoying the outdoors. Looking for something sleek and futuristic? ENVOs electric trike checks that box, as do COROSs latest watches. On the other hand, those who prefer less techy offerings will find a book on thru-hiking and a vegan camping food...
The Best Axes for Splitting Wood of 2024
  After foolishly agreeing to have nearly two cords of large pine rounds dumped on our driveway last spring, we spent the summer hauling, drying, splitting, and stacking wood with each of these axes in order to find the best and bring you our recommendations.   This particular load of wood put our lineup of splitting axes and our axe-wielding testers through...
How Freeride Mountain-Bike Pioneer Tarek Rasouli Returned to the Trails
  My favorite segment in the 2023 film Nothing’s For Free: The History of Freeride Mountain Biking chronicles the improbable comeback story of German cyclist Tarek Rasouli. One of the pioneers of freeride in the mid-nineties, Rasouli suffered a terrifying crash in Whistler, Canada, in 2002 that left him paralyzed from the waist down and reliant on a wheelchair.   The injury...
The Best Dog GPS Trackers of 2024
  It’s a dog’s life, as the saying goes, which is lucky for us when a dog’s life includes swimming in rivers, running up mountains, chasing friends in fields, and rolling in unthinkable messes. We tested the top dog GPS trackers so you can track where your pup ends up, even if you wish you didn’t (or didn’t have to smell...
Always Safe, but a Dash of Sideways Fun: Electric Volvo EX30 Winter Testing
  The new 2025 Volvo EX30 is a full-electric subcompact crossover that will hit the U.S. market this summer. First off, all versions of the vehicle are a great new car value — especially for an EV. Pricing ranges from $34,950 to $47,900. But, lets focus on whether you should buy the rear-wheel-drive (RWD) or all-wheel-drive (AWD) version.   I flew to...
The Best Gluten-Free Freeze Dried Meals: Camp Food for Everyone
  I count the day my wife said she’d like to go on an extended backpacking trip with me as one of the happiest of my life. And to a lesser degree, a stressful one.   Kat eats gluten-free. On previous shorter backpacking trips, she made her own meals, like red chile enchiladas with corn tortillas that she would then vacuum seal...
Lots More Tuscadero Pink Jeeps, While Gladiator Gets Electrified
  Around 30,000 Jeep Wranglers roam the planet wearing Tuscadero Pink paint. While it was supposed to be a limited-edition color back in 2021, strong demand has kept it available.   For 2024, not only does the Wrangler get Tuscadero, but for the first time, the Gladiator gets the pink treatment as well.   In even bigger news, the 2025 model year Jeep...
Dagger Launches ‘Indra’ Whitewater Kayak: Designed for Confidence-Inspiring Down-River Play
  The latest trend in whitewater kayak design is to meld a creek boat with a half-slice. This creates a playful but forgiving whitewater boat suitable for a wide range of paddlers. Nearly every whitewater kayak company has brought one of these new boat designs to market in the last 6 months. Today, Dagger joins the movement with the Indra.   ...
