To accompany the NORQAIN Adventure Sport and Freedom GMT, here are some other inspiring adventure gift ideas for the freedom seeker in your life.

There is nothing that says adventure like a hammock: portable, comfortable, and designed for the great outdoors.

Even the story of Eagles Nest Outfitters is an adventure in itself. The company was founded by the Pinholster brothers, who started selling their hammocks out of the back of their van as they traveled to various music festivals in their home state of Florida. The brothers’ first product was designed for their lifestyle: easy to pack and adventure-ready. Today, they have a range of hammocks made using patented technology, such as the very first knotless hammock suspension system.
 

Whether you are at the beach, in the backcountry, or relaxing in your backyard, ENO has a hammock for you. Photographed here is the SkyLite Hammock that offers a flat sleeping position, integrated bug net, and can be fitted with a rain tarp, making it an ideal gift for an overnight adventure.
 

Their Cloudventure line is designed for trail running, and this lightweight, waterproof trail running shoe features a breathable and supportive upper stretch-mesh sock for a precise fit and comfort. The sole is crafted using Speedboard and Missiongrip technology that allows for maximum agility over uneven ground.

Made for men and women, the Cloudventure also offers responsive off-road acceleration, as well as grip and traction on wet surfaces.
 

Belstaff started making practical and waterproof garments for both men and women, with an emphasis on motorcycling, in 1924. The company has been associated with some of the most daring adventurers over the years, including motorcycle racer Joseph “Joe” Wright and pioneering aviatrixes Amy Johnson and Amelia Earhart. More recently, Belstaff jackets have been spotted on actor Ewan McGregor and motorcyclist Charley Boorman in their motorcycling documentary Long Way Up (currently running on Apple TV+).
 

The Trialmaster is an iconic jacket dating back to 1948 and was originally designed to cope with the grueling conditions of the Scottish Six Days motorcycle trial. The jacket, made of 6 oz. waxed cotton, comes with Belstaff’s signature check cotton twill lining and corduroy touches on the collar, cuffs, and hem. The four front pockets, belt, and high collar with an adjustable throat latch will keep the adventurer in your life dry and stylish on their adventures.
 

Ski-Doo is best known for its snowmobiles, which are the go-to mode of transport for anyone living or working in the snow. Less well-known is that, in addition to the snowmobiles, the company also creates other snow-related products for winter fun, such as these cool foam snow sleds.
 

Extremely lightweight, these foam sleds make trekking to the top of the hill slightly easier. And with four durable molded plastic handles and a slick bottom, adventurers will have the fastest and smoothest ride back down the mountain. The Ski-Doo foam snow sleds can fit one or two riders at a time and come in a range of colored graphic designs. You don’t need to own any children to have fun on one of these!
 

Oakley is a sport and lifestyle brand that is best known for its high-performance sunglasses, goggles, prescription lenses, and frames designed for professional and amateur athletes. This year has unfortunately curtailed many of our opportunities for outdoor adventure, but adventure can still be found if you know where to look.
 

The new Oakley Prizm gaming glasses are the first optical solution developed specifically for gaming and specially built to enhance visual contrast and provide sharp vision. Feature blue-light filtering technology designed to reduce 40% of blue light within the 380-500nm range to help protect from artificial light, Oakley also designed the lens to reduce the yellow tint, which often appears as a result of blue-light filtering.

So, if your gaming adventures involve slaying dragons or bringing your NFL team to victory, these glasses are going to up your game.
