sporti euro swim briefs - 5 pair. 2 of these are still functional. the chlorine kills them in a few months. Until i find a longer lasting minimally cut swim brief for a better price, these do nicely. a necessity for me to swim.
timbuk2 pack - as you will notice i'm addicted to backpacks. I didn't need it and rarely use it. I was attracted by the cheap price. whoops.
goruck tac hat - the ultimate baseball cap.
patagonia stand up shorts 5" - because shorts should be. the go-to short when you're not in water.
patagonia baggies 5" - the go-to short when you're in water, or really doing anything else active. in lime green just for the heck of it. a black pair would be much more practical and boring.
klean kanteen 12oz stainless steel narrow mouth bottle plus stainless steel cap. - one of my better purchases of 2012. will last much longer than plastic bottles.
fleece pants - not a necessity but very cozy!
patagonia sun hat - bought it mainly for the beach for sun protection.
