We tested rain pants for 2 years from thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail to the forests of South America, from Colorado’s high country to winter in New York. Our expert guide provides field-tested recommendations, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable on the trails.

We tested the most popular hiking tights and leggings for fit, comfort, pockets, sun protection, moisture-wicking, quick-drying and more.

A detailed, long-term review of the Deuter Kid Comfort—our top hiking carrier pick for parents carrying toddlers. We test its comfort, stability, durability, and share why it's worth it for outdoor adventures with kids.

We reviewed waterproof, breathable, and packable rain gear for hiking, backpacking, and travel to find the best lightweight rain jackets.

We review sports detergents to find the best laundry detergent for workout clothes. Gym clothes require a tough sports wash that can address tough stains and odors. We tested the best-selling sports laundry detergent, the best everyday laundry detergent, and the best laundry boosters to meet your needs and budgets.

Our testers know moisture and take the statement “waterproof” seriously. If they can’t withstand submersion in a river bank, deep puddle, or boggy mud for an hour at a time, we won’t call them waterproof.
