Our whole team is outfitted in this durable, long-lasting gear, and I can’t recommend it highly enough.

I order men’s sizes since I’m tall and need the extra length, plus the women’s have a bright pink logo that I don’t particularly care for, but the other ladies on our team don’t seem to mind. I wear the Neptune Bibs and Jacket (men’s small). If you live in a climate that gets a lot of rain, high-quality rain gear is essential. Our barn entrance is always lined with so many of their boots! Chris loves the Classic Ultra High, and the rest of our team members wear a variety of different styles.

My personal favorite is the Neo-Classic Mid, and I recently got a pair of the Arcata style, which are great for wet, cold days but are cute enough to wear into town. The team and I have been wearing Bogs for many, many years, and we’ve found them to be the only insulated boots that hold up over time with heavy use.

In our part of Washington, where it stays cool and wet for two-thirds of the year, keeping dry and warm is essential. I hope you enjoy this list and take the time to share some of your own favorites in the comments section at the bottom of this post. Today I’m happy to share some of them with you.

These trusted companies and talented artisan makers inspire me with their commitment to quality, their heartfelt stories, and the way they run their businesses with such integrity and passion. With the holidays coming up, I thought it would be fun to put together a big list of things I use on a regular basis and highly recommend. Over the years I’ve been flooded with countless emails and messages asking what I recommend for boots, raincoats, tools, books, jewelry, and camera gear.
