Something You Need: the James Brand Desert Campout Collection
The James Brand - our favorite in high-quality necessities of life and the outdoors - has done it again.
The Desert Campout Collection is a capsule of cutting and communication necessities, marked by a mission out to Nude Bowl in Coachella valley, embarked on by Zach Miller, Shea Donovan, and Cam Kruger - a group of skaters and artists as skilled as they are crazy for pursuing such an endeavor.
If you have never stepped out of your carefully air conditioned home office and ventured out into the dessert, it is not like in the movies, or in the Instagram reels of your friends sucking down coconut waters at Burning Man. It is a brutal place to exist, let alone skate, and the Nude Bowl - given its distance from civilization and unpredictable condition - can be unforgiving.
‘After about an hour of bailing water, clearing some light debris, and sweeping, we got the session going.’
As someone who has camped in all conditions, there is nothing as complicated and difficult as camping in the intense snow, or the intense heat. It is under these conditions that you would like to be able to rely on the tools that you’ve brought with you. When you choose The James Brand, you choose right.
