    Ice & Winter Backcountry Apparel Must Haves - Owen Duda

    Curated gear collection

    Owen Duda's expert gear recommendations on Rendezvu

    Products in this list

    • Men's Dawn Patrol Pants by Black Diamond — The Dawn Patrol pants are great. They mostly live in my kit for touring days in the backcountry, but do make an appearance often for those cold NE ice climbing days where I need extra layers.
    • Taiss Guide SO Pants Men by Mammut — These are one of my favorite ice/alpine pants. I have owned them consistently for 6 years, including my original!
    • Men's Dawn Patrol Softshell by Black Diamond — I have owned the Blue Black Diamond DP Soft Shell for many years, and it has not let me disappointed. Warm, rugged, and dependable. The chest pocket and high sitting side pockets are just a bonus when it comes to not getting things caught under your harness.
    • Men's Super Alpine Down Parka by Outdoor Research — My favorite Belay Parka to date. Nothing else to say. Worth every penny.
    • Men's Revolution Undercuff GORE-TEX Gloves by Outdoor Research — I have former generations of these gloves that are now duct taped together, because I just cant let go. They kick ass, whether back country camping, skiing, or ice climbing.
    • Alpine Merino 200 Grid Glove by Outdoor Research — Although I have a few, these are one of my go to approach gloves for the winter time.
    • Men's Highline Stretch Shell by Black Diamond
    • Men's Austera Alpine Down Hoodie by Outdoor Research
