Ignik Topside Heated Blanket
[composite mediaId=’4130dd0c-544c-47b0-99fd-3b6877cc0abf’][/composite]
New for Fall 2023, the single-person Topside blanket has some unique features setting it apart from other heated blankets. The upper is 100-percent recycled poly, and the underneath is a soft, recycled microsuede. The heating element runs all the way through the blanket, rather than separate blocks that don’t spread heat uniformly. The handiest feature is the smart controller; you can set heating for one to 10 hours, choose temperature ranges manually, and the controller will remember your last settings from the previous session.

The Targhee is Gregory’s first-ever women’s-specific ski pack. The back panel on the women’s pack features a few design deviations from the men’s pack that cater specifically to the female form: the shoulder harness was brought in, and the contour of the hip belt was updated to fit a women’s frame. The back panel is also tapered inward. The Targhee includes back panel access and avalanche pockets for probe, shovel, helmet carry and other gear. The Targhee will launch in September this year.

The Nexus Light is a zipper-less, variable-size backpack: when it’s a full pack, it has a 50-liter capacity and it weighs three pounds. There are two optional parts — the garment bag and the lid — that you can remove to drop weight and bring the capacity down to 35 liters, for shorter trips. The wide-flex suspension puts the load on your hips, not your back, and the nylon used is 100-percent recycled nylon.

The Luxe Mat came out in 2022 and was originally designed specifically for Teslas; after realizing the potential for the product, Exped has expanded the sizes. Spring 2024 updates include this new forest green colorway and will be available at retailers throughout the country.
