It's become a monthly tradition around here to answer the question:
Is this stuff Overrated, Underrated or is it Properly Rated?
Where our resident gear expert, Justin Housman, rules FOR ALL TIME on the status of some specific pieces or categories of gear. A ruling that cannot be undone!
On this edition, compiled with the help of emails we've received from our G&B listeners, Justin and Colin judge snowshoes, Solo Stove, and the category of stuff that is Made In The USA.
And when it comes to this weeks beer pairing, our Gear & Beer certified beer expert (that would be Justin) wanted to pair the perfect winter or holiday beer with today's gear. So Colin went out and found one that he thinks could Stump our Cicerone.
Did it work? Was Justin stumped? Are these gear items Over, Under, or Properly Rated? You need to listen to find out.

How many headlamps have you owned that you actually remember? For a super fun and functional piece of outdoor gear, the headlamp has been largely unremarkable... until now!
Today on Gear & Beer, Justin and Colin talk all about the voice controlled Coast RL35R headlamp!
They discuss their personal experiences with headlamps and emphasize how this particular model stands out not just for its functionality but also for its convenience during outdoor activities.

Alongside their gear discussion, the hosts also share their opinions on the importance of branding and naming in the outdoor industry, noting how product names can impact consumer perception. In short: outdoor brands largely need to do a better job naming their stuff!

Do you have a plan for your tires this winter? If not what is wrong with you?!
That's the what most outdoor gear reviews will make you believe in a bevy of tire related articles that get published this time of year. But he truth around what kind of tires you need to get to your outdoor winter adventures is much simpler.
Today on the show Justin and Colin explore various tire options while comparing all-season tires to dedicated winter tires. They also share personal anecdotes and insights from their own experiences in snowy conditions, highlighting that many drivers may not truly need dedicated winter tires and may in fact just want to pick up some chains.
And they also play the first ever round of STUMP THE CICERONE! Can Justin guess which beer Colin paired for this wintry episode? You'll have to listen to Gear & Beer to find out!
Check out video Justin's breakdown of the Nokian nAT here.

It's time to craft the perfect surf kit for just about everyone.
Today on Gear & Beer Colin and Justin start the show by talking about how surfboards have evolved to include the venerable foamie! Allowing for more fun and alternative surfing styles to enter the surf conversation. Then they turn their eye to their new favorite piece of gear: Passenger's Waves Recycled Sherpa Lined Changing Robe.
And look folks, Passenger just straight up gets it. Because not only did they send sweet changing robes to test out, they sent... THEIR OWN BEER!
That's right it's the first Gear & Beer where the pairing is from the same brand as today we crack open some Brewgooder/Passenger Made to Roam IPA. A beer so good, it had to be shipped to us illegally (we think) and Justin drank all of his before recording this episode!

Today we tap into Justin’s knowledge and expertise as a professional gear reviewer and leverage his years of experience in adventure and in journalism to play a little game called Overrated, Underrated Or Properly Rated?
During the episode Colin throws three items at Justin who has to decide if that item is over, under or properly rated. And there is a lot at stake here because Justin's decision is definitive! What are the items? You'll have to listen to find out but just know that there can be no debate after Gear & Beer's lead reviewer and Cicerone makes his call.
And speaking of our Cicerone, today the boys each bring a different beer to the table that they believe is also either underrated, overrated or simply, properly rated.

A common interest among the human powered outdoor crowd: Fly Fishing!
Getting into a new activity can be intimidating especially when you want to try fly fishing but you've been watching A River Runs Through It for your entire life and you think you need go full Brad Pitt in order to make it happen.
Today on Gear & Beer we're here to help!

Erica recently reviewed the Gen 2 for GearJunkie and today she's hanging out with Colin & Justin to tell them why this particular bluetooth speaker is an amazing addition to any outdoor kit.
