Why We Started TrailForge Gear
We believe the right gear and knowledge can turn any outdoor trip into an unforgettable experience. After years of trial and error—and way too many busted backpacks and soggy tents—we decided it was time to share what we’ve learned.
This isn’t just a hobby. It’s a passion. And we’re excited to help fellow adventurers (and future adventurers) find the tools and confidence to embrace the wild.
What’s Coming Next
We’ve got some exciting content lined up:
- Best Compact Survival Kits of 2025
- DIY Trail Marking System You Can Build at Home

Plus, we’ll be launching an email newsletter soon, so you can get tips and gear reviews straight to your inbox.
