Fall Trail Apparel & Boots: Layering Guide for Hikes, Camp and Cold Mornings

Layering is the secret to staying comfortable outside: a base layer, an insulating mid layer and a weatherproof shell, plus boots that stay dry. Here's our trail apparel and footwear lineup.

How to choose

  • Base: skip cotton next to skin on cold or wet days.
  • Mid: fleece and hoodies trap warmth and breathe.
  • Shell: a waterproof, hooded jacket handles wind and rain.
  • Boots: waterproof and broken in before a big hike.
