What Treeline Readers Got in January 2025

The most popular gear of 2025 (so far) among Treeline fans

February 6th, 2025

As the winter season is now fully here, it's fun to see what other Treeline Review readers are buying so far in 2025 to enjoy getting outside.

Trends we’ve seen so far: it’s finally time to get out that ski and snowboarding gear. Even among non-skiers, cold snaps translated to everyone switching to base layers, down jackets, and winter boots.

We’ve also seen a trend of winter travel to snowy destinations. That means finding a safe way to get your ski and snowboard gear through the airport or in the back of the car without damaging it.

And this year's class of thru-hikers is getting their ultralight gear kits ready for spring.

As temperatures dip, we see more people picking up gloves, jackets, base layers, and boots for extreme cold. People are grabbing gear to stay warm and cozy, whether for themselves or their loved ones.

This month, the hottest gear among Treeline Review readers (buying for themselves and others!):

People are treating themselves to Branwyn Essential Bralette and Branwyn Essential Underwear (and it’s 15% off right now!)

Our winner for Best Wool Underwear and a winner in our Best Hiking Sports Bra guide, Branwyn is one of the fastest growing companies this year and Treeline readers' enthusiasm shows!

Ski (and snowboard) travel bags are a must this season!

The Dakine Fall Line is our overall winner for Best Ski Bag.
The Thule Roundtrip Boot Pack is our winner in our Ski Boot Bag guide.
Sometimes the affordable option is the best option. The evo Deluxe is our winner for Best Snowboarding Travel bag and is super popular with Treeline readers right now.

Treeline readers are brave runners who head outdoors no matter the conditions. The men's and women's Patagonia Windshield Pants are winners in our Best Men's Winter Tights and Best Women's Winter Tights for best running pants.
