Tents
Your tent is your home away from home, and just like when you are buying a house, there is a long list of things to consider when purchasing a tent! Interior size, peak height, weight, weather resistance, packed size, and of course, price, are just a few of the factors that will make a tent the perfect match for you. Maybe you are searching for an untraditional tent, such as a tree tent or a rooftop car tent, or maybe you just need tent accessories, such as extra-long stakes or a footprint. Whatever it is, Curated has you covered!
Sleeping
A good night’s sleep is important while you are camping, and your Curated Expert will help make sure you get those quality Z’s! With access to sleeping bags with various fill types, shapes, temperature ratings, and packed sizes; sleeping pads of various thicknesses, R-Values, and weights; and a slew of accessories including sleeping bag liners, packable pillows, and hammocks, you will never have a better night’s sleep than with your new gear under the stars!
Backpack
Whether you are planning a long, multi-night backpacking trip or are going for shorter day hikes close to home, having the correctly sized backpack will make or break your experience! Not only do you want the correct size and volume, but also the specific features come into play as well. Are you hiking in Florida in July? You need a backpack that has breathability to minimize that back sweat! Are you planning a trip to Iceland in the fall? A backpack with an included rain cover will keep your gear dry. Don’t just choose blindly, let a Curated Expert help you find a pack that meets all of your needs (and wants)!
Camp Kitchen
Did you know that a delicious, gourmet meal at your campsite is not only possible, but easy? Whether you are deep in the backcountry or at a developed campsite, all you need is the right cooking equipment, and you can be eating better than you do at home! Camp stoves of all weights and sizes, packable utensils and cookware, and large and small, hard-shell and soft-shell coolers are just a few of the items in Curated’s camp kitchen inventory. And don’t forget accessories, such as a portable french press and extendable roasting sticks! Plus, you can even ask your expert for their favorite recipes!
Accessories and Electronics

Apparel and Footwear
Nothing ruins a hike or backpacking trip like blisters and sore feet. Getting properly fitting hiking boots that have features such as waterproofing, breathability, a durable outsole, and a cushioned footbed will keep you going for miles and miles. And as always, your Curated Expert will tailor your selection to you. Do you have a previous ankle injury? A high-top boot will be a better option for you. On a tight budget? Your Curated Expert will find you a great pair of boots at a price you are comfortable with. Your expert will not only filter through the hiking boot options to find the perfect pair for you, but they will recommend any apparel that you need. Heading to the Pacific Northwest for a hunting trip? Rain gear! Heading to the desert for a National Parks tour? A quick-drying top with UV protection would be perfect for you!
