Everyday Carry: Man of Action

Presented by

An urban complement of everyday carry gear is all well and good for city-going folks, but it’s not going to do you a whole lot of good if you’re hoping to get off the grid (and potentially stay there). But never fret, there are other options — like the items you’ll find in this week’s everyday carry pocket dump. For adventurers who laugh in the face of danger, chart their own path, and like to share those expeditions with the world, this arrangement of gear will serve you beautifully through all your escapades. And once you’re finished with one exceptional endeavor, it will be ready to head right back out again and again and again…

GoPro HERO8 Black Camera

GoPro, the king of the action camera industry, is back yet again with another range-topping offering that puts their competition to shame. HERO8 Black takes everything that was great about previous iterations and doubles down on them tenfold. This camera offers up 4K video and UHD image capture, hi-fi audio, a magnificent suite of photo and video modes, modular attachment capabilities for more options than ever before, and (of course) a waterproof exterior — even without a protective case. Our favorite addition, however, might be the innovative HyperSmooth 2.0 stabilization feature, which makes sure all your videos are cinematic masterpieces. You can preorder it now with availability soon.
