You’ve seen those Instagram shots of outdoorsy types hanging out on golden beaches, gazing contentedly at the crashing surf. The Victory Blanket is the ideal companion for days just like that. Its desert stripes and retro details are inspired by the sun-bleached states of southern California, Arizona and New Mexico, while its soft flannel top and waterproof underside add a dose of outdoor practicality. It’s the perfect blanket to keep in the car – or ideally, in the back of a Land Rover – ready for weekend camping, chilled-out picnics or lazy beach days.
The idea of NEMO was born one turbulent night on the side of Mount Washington while Cam Brensinger spent a sleepless five hours in a poorly designed bivy. That night he realised how much opportunity there was for thoughtful design as part of the equation of enjoying adventure. And, coming down off the mountain the next day, he resolved to tackle that challenge. Three days after graduation from Rhode Island School of Design, he founded NEMO Equipment.
