Waterproof for Wet Dogs: Shodu Car Seat Cover for the Back Seat and Door Panels
  When a grumbling thunderstorm surprised my dog and me on an autumn hike, the Shodu Waterproof Dog Car Seat Cover rose to the occasion.

An Ode to the Relationships We Owe to the Outdoors

  Over the past 5 or so years, there has been a strong reaction to the overly aggressive “tactical” folders that saw popularity in the early aughts.
