Day 2 at the show and we've got some great stuff for you! Grab your beverage - here we go!
Field Candy
All of Field Candy's products are all made in England, so it's not the cheapest stuff we saw at the show but it is definitely some of the most fun!
The Hang About
Even the name sounds British! These awesome hanging chairs for the kids have an inflatable floor so they retain their shape when sat in. Made of a very high quality waterproof nylon, you could hang this outside all summer and bring it into the kid's room for winter. Priced in the mid $100s, we think Santa will be delivering a lot of these this Christmas!
While we don't see them replacing your 4 season expedition tent anytime soon, Field Candy's tents are legit and more than just a pop-up play thing for your kids. With a fun twist on graphics, some even customizable!, we can't wait to see these crop up during summer camping season.
Now for our favorite item at the Field Candy booth: The Snoos Pillos! These pillows are a home run with super fun graphics that have British flair, are relevant and fun! A perfect stocking stuffer for the kids and the young at heart this Christmas!
Sweet Protection
Sweet always brings something fresh and new to OR and this year is no different! All new merino wool tops and bottoms will be available in men's and women's, fit under your paddling gear perfectly and sport some mad steeze with the Sweet logo. At $99 for the top and $89 for the bottom, they aren't cheap but this is the kind of investment that will not only be around forever but will make you much more popular with your paddling homies than if you were rocking a set of stinky polys. To top it all off, they come in cool black and white Star Wars like packing. Those Sweet designers - they think of everything!

In addition to the underwear, the Generator jacket will be available in a heavier weight wool. Be on the look out for these - the pics don't do the colors justice!
We had to throw in this cool ENO blanket with flashing led lights on the edge. We're not sure what this is for but it seems cool. Maybe for those occasions when you need a night time UFO landing pad?
Astral
If the new Astral Layla reminds you of the Lotus Lola from years past, there is good reason! With a new spin on an old frame, this is going to make a lot of ladies that have been waiting for the Lola's return very happy (and comfy)! $139 in the 2 colors (purple and red) shown!

If you're looking to get a solid vest at a great price, the YTV is definitely one to check out! Great colors, lots of features and a mere $119!
You know it, you love it! The ever popular, expedition worthy Greenjacket has been freshly updated and comes in black, Cherry Creek Red and Deep Water Blue.
If you're thinking of buying water shoes from any company other then Astral, stop. Go find you some Astrals and try them on. There isn't a Shoe on this wall that we don't think is great. It took a couple years of tweaking to get it perfect, but Astral shoes have arrived and we think you're gonna love them!
