Spring is in the air at Darby HQ. And also winter. After all, we are based in western North Carolina, where it’s not unusual to experience all four seasons in a week. Regardless of the weather, we’re all gearing up for the change in seasons, and that means a plethora of new Spring/Summer products from our clients! From socks to stoves and everything in between, our brands have you covered for your upcoming outdoor adventures.
Jetboil introduced its all-new TrailCook Stove Systems: the TrailCook 1.2L and 2.0L. Engineered with a new integrated, self-centering pot support and advanced regulator valves, the TrailCook Stove Systems deliver precise simmer control, fast ignition, and incremental heat adjustment for delicious meals. The TrailCook 1.2L and 2.0L are both designed with Jetboil’s re-engineered ignition, now integrated directly into the valve control for easier, more reliable lighting.
G. Loomis announced its expanded and redesigned IMX-PRO BASS Bottom Contact lineup, engineered for anglers looking for unwavering performance and precisely tuned tools for bottom-oriented techniques. The lineup now includes 25 technique-focused models, including nine new additions that utilize a new high-modulus graphite construction to optimize strength and weight without unnecessary material. The IMX-PRO BASS lineup is designed and rolled entirely at the G. Loomis facility in Woodland, Washington.
TRAVOCA debuted its newest dual-zone electric cooler, the Rigel+, this month at Overland Expo SoCal. Building upon the original Rigel eCooler, the Rigel+ includes upgraded features inspired by conversations with customers and creators at previous Overland Expos. The new model includes a built-in MOLLE panel for keeping small essentials within reach, an integrated fold-out shelf for your beverage of choice, and removable baskets to make loading and unloading the cooler a breeze.
BRANWYN continues pushing the boundaries of what seamless Merino wool can do for activewear with its new Essential Supreme Bra. Built with a first-of-its-kind seamless scrunch construction knit directly into the garment, the Essential Supreme Bra creates natural separation without underwires or additional seams. The Essential Supreme Bra is ideal for low-impact activity and all-day wear.
Farm to Feet introduced the Damascus No Fly Zone® sock, a new addition to the American Trail collection designed to provide an added layer of protection against insect-borne diseases. The new style incorporates No Fly Zone® technology, which integrates a contact-based permethrin repellent at the fabric level. Effective for up to 70 washings, No Fly Zone® technology is odorless, EPA-registered, and protects against a broad spectrum of insects, including mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers, flies, and midges.
The Landmark Project rolled out a robust Spring 2026 collection inspired by the feeling of a National Park Summer. Blending the nostalgia of the American road trip with heritage conservation graphics, the collection expands The Landmark Project’s Smokey Bear and National Park offerings while introducing new women’s silhouettes, refreshed bandanas, youth headwear, and collectible accessories. As always, a portion of proceeds supports organizations including the National Parks Conservation Association, Leave No Trace, and the National Forest Foundation.
