david and david is going to tell us all about their brand new storage bag they just came out with yeah absolutely as you can see this is a unique storage bag it's made with a hatex vinyl which is a uv uv resistant hardcore construction vinyl and one of the things that separates our bags from other bags on the market is really that uv wear and tear that happens usually a trash bag lasts about a year or a season our bags are designed to last five plus seasons for um just the the construction of it locally made right here in pennsylvania and so everything's locally sourced and put together here and it's a 25 gallon bag uv resistant and we attach it to the back of our spare tires with rock straps so high quality straps that keep your your bag put together excellent i know you guys are based out of arizona right yep absolutely and is that kind of where this whole the longevity and the beating the sun kind of came from yeah yeah all of our guys are overlanders and so they use gear and they would go out and beat up their gear bags or trash bags out on the trail and over the years they got tired of spending a hundred dollars here and a hundred dollars there to do that and so they wanted to construct something that could be more durable excellent now is there a guarantee for the life of the bag or is it just that's what you estimate it to last that's what we estimated to last but we are a local company here and we we guarantee everything that we do turtleback trailers you guys are a great company super supportive of the community and obviously your trails are known worldwide so you guys got great products here i have no doubts that this thing will be just as high quality yeah i appreciate it man hey one thing to point out too is our bags are customizable so you can get a color insert we have one of 12 different color inserts to match either your tow vehicle or your uh your trailer so whatever you put this on uh you can get a little uh style as well as durability oh that's awesome and and that is that extra cost or is that just part of the back the part of the package you get to pick what color insert you want on your back awesome and what does this run what's the retail value 295 for this bag okay great we're breaking people find jet uh they can go to turtlebacktrailers.com awesome all right david thank you so much i appreciate it i appreciate it man thank you hey guys we're here at the expedition essentials booth with jeff the owner of exhibition essentials and he is going to walk us through some new products and some products that are oldies but goodies nice you guys to stop by and check out some of our new products and some of the old ones what we have here first thing i want to show you guys is this pretty awesome new maxtrax mount which we've had out for a few months now but uh it's been pretty popular we have a hard time keeping them on the shelf and the reason they're so awesome is you don't have to use pens it's quick release locking you can mount it vertical horizontal and it's fast i mean you're not having pens freeze up on you has a little kick out on it for breaking them loose when they're frozen there's mud and uh yeah we love them we put one on the side of our camper and they're starting to pop up in quite a few places we stripped them australia and england and everywhere so yeah they're they're a great option for mounting mac tracks yeah they're definitely awesome innovation i really like the idea that if they do get frozen in there especially like in colorado or alaska those things get frozen there you're not getting them out so this cracks them and you can easily pull it out yeah it's a good solid option and yeah we love it excellent all right and what else do you have i know you got something else that's brand new something something that everybody uses and um little people think of it but paper towels you know so we made an overkill paper towel holder which has a magnetic base with paint safe magnets spring-loaded flap from keeping your paper towel roll from going away in the wind and it folds nice and flat so you can use it and store it and it doesn't take up too much space it's simple and easy and you'll probably have it forever because no more bungee cords to unravel and you know everything that gets used in a truck is paper towels are one of those must have always need and they're always in a bin tucked away somewhere you have to dig for them so that's a great option yep definitely definitely and where where's all your stuff made you make it you did at one point make it yourself right or you had it made well we use we assemble and package in-house but all of our stuff is manufactured in washington state we use a couple different fab shops for the production stuff and then we quality check package and ship in-house and i'm sure you guys know that trev and i love expedition essentials we both run i run the 3t pam trev runs the tpam on the foreigners in tacomas and they are absolutely priceless i think it's by far my favorite accessory on my truck is having all the navigation just right there at fingers touch we appreciate definitely one of our more popular and original products so it's definitely how we do what we do it's making awesome dash mounts that are solid and look clean and do their job well excellent and what are the max track holder and the paper towel holder what do those retail for the two board version of the max trax holder is 355 the four bird versions 375 and the paper towel holders 55 bucks awesome well you know what if it's high quality you get what you pay for so that sounds awesome and where can people find you guys at our website expeditionessentials.com instagram facebook and at a lot of these off-road trade shows excellent all right jeff thank you so much for time i appreciate it thank you yeah thanks thanks for stopping by [Music] hey guys we're here at shower pouch with mike and mike you've got some really really cool stuff here this is an absolute essential for any overlander give me some history about how shower pouch started oh my gosh all right so it started back in uh 2012 my dad did his last appointment in camp leatherneck in afghanistan right and he would tell me how the marines would take him from one fourth hour and basis to another right and he would talk about how funky they would smell and then i was like oh a navy man talking making fun of a marine and he came to me because i was working for a hygiene company at the time he said can you make something better than a baby wipe and i said you know what let me think about it i set on an idea for about two and a half years i met my business partner omar over there he's backing out and he's a fantastic chemist i'm a packaging engineer and we put our two minds together and he was like you know what i can come up with a formula that's vegan hypoallergenic ph balance right and i said you know i can find a material that is hyper uh super absorbent that you can use only one body wipe to clean yourself and it has a great sustainability story of repurpose and reuse right so that's how kind of idea came about we commercialized everything back in 2016. and uh overland expo was the one who kind of like opened us with big arms they wrote our first article an expedition portal and so on and so forth have been every single magazine and we're just riding that wave because everyone is about having hygiene essentials that clean you up on the go that doesn't carry a lot of weight and feels good about what you're doing for the environment that's great you know i'll be honest if you don't know what shower pouch is you've probably been under a rock you need to come out from that cave that you're living in so i actually did a three-day backpacking trip in the bob marshall in montana and i lived every single day for that nightly shower with the shower pouch oh gosh yeah i'm telling you it's the experience of um using a baby wipe and thinking about how many you have to go through and all that trash you carry is just not the best experience right but we tell people like this large two foot by one foot by the way we're cleaning from head to toe so i tell everyone start from the head down not the other way around you don't want to do butt to the face or armpits of the face common sense isn't it common i tell people all the time you know but the ability to uh put it in a jetboil boil it get the essential oils coming out and wiping out with the warm cloth is nothing like you could ever experience going out camping right so uh it's usually that third day second or third day where you're like all right the growings is tough the feet are tough i need to do something you know so if you have a river to jump into and you like cold you know cold wipes now or a cold experience like that then go for it but if you want something that's a little more pleasant especially when it's cold outside it's raining uh you know i do a lot of winter camping in the snow using baby wipes just wasn't cutting it so that's where we found there was a need and we addressed it by developing this product that's excellent you know i've actually i had no idea there's essential oil oils in there you know you you smell the great smell and i yeah it's like oh it just must be a perfume or something i realize oils was the base for that gosh so baby wipes if a lot of people don't know is this water and soap that's why you feel sticky when you use it right our stuff is an essential oil so we use aloe juice algae is designed to heal the skin followed by tea tree oil witch hazel willow bark and we put a little bit of menthol to give you that coolant as if you just stepped out of the shower right so if you get that little awakening that's what it is right so um you know we wanted something that people are familiar with my mom used to say if you cannot read it you shouldn't eat it same thing should be applied about what you put on your skin you know so that's how you know we make the product slightly different than a baby wipe that's awesome mike i'm learning stuff as we speak this is great so tell me what is the actual material on and then there's more than one material for the shower pouch this is this one so it's an engineer cloth um let me back up for a second everything's made in the usa our non-woven suppliers in the carolinas our film manufacturers in california our ingredient supplier is in the pacific northwest so everything's made in the states uh probably we proudly stand behind that but in terms of material it's an engineer cloth that we worked with a manufacturer who makes specializing non-wovens we purposely want to go with that versus the biodegradable because we believe in what we call a circular economy which is repurposed reused many times over just like your favorite coffee mug after you drink that good coffee do you throw it away no you wash it so we want people to watch this as well that's great yeah actually i'll be honest i might have used one for my my full three-day trip trying to cut weight yeah i know but probably not the best thing but it worked and it worked really well it is you know when you think about you know grams out of the ounces add up to pounds right so if you're doing a backpacking trip and a lot of people think oh overland is of a lot of stuff yeah we do that but a lot of times we're getting somewhere to a home base so we can do that 10 mile hike so if you know you need only one body wipe just bring one don't why bring a whole bunch of baby wipes with you that's just extra waste you're going to carry and stuff you're not going to use yeah absolutely and mike what is the price point on say one package or is there like a bulk option as well yeah so right now if you go online it's five for 25 right obviously we have our show special but we offer it on amazon right amazon's a great place obviously they have a reach far beyond we can ever do through social media on our website but you also go through our website at the showerpouch.com and we have an assortment of things beyond just the body wipes we have bath bombs hand sanitizer we're working on some a new deodorant spray as well as a two a tablet toothpaste so we'll see where that comes you know but we're super excited to be like your go-to for all things hygiene essential for the active adventure in all of us that's amazing i am looking forward to all of those innovations all right you guys have to check out shower pouch definitely an overland essential by the bare bones explanation if you look up the dictionary mike's face is there with the shower pouch it's absolutely essential so thank you mike so much i appreciate it guys thank you come by booth h6 take care all right guys we're here with casey at the rome adventure co booth and you guys have some new product launch for uh expo right yeah we're super excited to uh announce our rugged mounts for the 95 liter rugged case and our 83 rugged case so all right so this is going to be a new mounting system for what racks um it's a it'll work with just about any rack it's universal and it's mounting it's got a pretty unique mounting design in that it's got different channels to be able to to tie down to just about any rag if your rack has a spot to slide in bolts and to be able to bolt it down that way works perfectly if you don't have it that way if your rack is a boltless rack you're able to run a couple bolts with a sandwich plate and run it over the top so it works with just about any rack you have perfect and this is an awesome mounting solution i know people have been asking for this for a very long time so thank you guys for solving that problem for a lot of us with cases now is this going to be uh solely for your roam adventure code case or is this optional for other cases as well yeah absolutely and thank you for saying that um yeah it'll be specifically for our 95 liter rugged case and also our 83 rugged case so casey tell me about the boxes themselves i mean you guys are kind of known for these boxes right yeah absolutely so our rugged cases they come in six different sizes they come in four different colors you got black slate tan and ot green but the rugged cases they are roto-molded rugged cases super durable able to withstand just about anything they have a military grade seal on them so they're dust proof waterproof and they're great for all sorts of gear storage no matter what your gear is so yeah they've been an awesome solution people love them so we're talking watertight airtight the whole bit right yeah absolutely excellent i know dust in arizona is a big deal and there's no keeping dust out of these boxes so i'm glad this is gonna solve that problem too yeah they do great at keeping the dust out if you do get dust in them we all the cases come with a drain plug as well and so it's easy just to hose them down and drain out any moisture you get in there excellent and what is a what is the warranty for one of these cases yeah they're a lifetime limited lifetime warranty on them okay perfect and the box behind us here i'm showing i'm looking at a molle panel is that optional for the box or does that come with every box yeah it's a optional accessory so we have molle panels that come with them we also have what we call a lid organizer it's more of a dedicated storage so it's got zipper velcro mesh pockets and really make it just easy and simple to be able to store any products you have it does a great job of being able to get a lot of like your smaller items out of the bottom of the box so they don't get lost and up into the the lid of the box um it makes a lot easier that way um the molle panels they're a lot more um for someone who wants the customized like to be able to customize their their storage so you can use any sort of molle accessory or like velcro to be able to strap on just about any accessory that you have perfect and tell me how the how the functionality works with the lock itself like how does this actually lock the case on how does it come off yeah so we have a foot that slides down through the tie down strap of the two different rugged case sizes um and then it's got a cam lock that comes down and cinches it down and then on the base of the mount it's got four different shock resistant feet that hold the case side to side the cam lock is able to hold it down top to bottom which um essentially eliminates any vibration or rattling that you get through the cases that way so great and let me ask you this are you going to open it up to any other cases in your line or is it just going to be those two size boxes yeah we definitely thought about how we can do it for our other cases and what the use case scenarios would be for those right now the 95 liter and the 83 liter are the two we chose to go with purely because of the application them being primarily used on rooftop applications it makes a lot more sense to have the mounting system work there on a rooftop so with the other ones we definitely are open to it and we'll you know see if it's something that works in the future we just have to see what those use case scenarios are and go from there yeah i know a lot of guys like this size box but some people that have a higher profile tent they don't mind having a larger profile box on there too so i don't think it'd be a bad option but you know it's just it's whatever you guys come up with for sure absolutely and it's i think it's definitely something we'll keep in mind and uh flush it out make sure that things you know work right and that they're gonna work as they're i guess designed to be able to so that's one thing i think with with all of our our products that we design everything's intentional and we want to make sure that it's totally dialed before you know we pass anything on so yeah r d is a big deal yeah definitely and what are the price points on the cases the two size cases that you run with the locking system and the locking system itself yeah so the 95 liter is 369 dollars the 83 liter is 359 dollars and then our rugged mounts they're on pre-order right now but they'll be priced at 189 dollars perfect yeah these this is a one-stop solution for boxes as well as the locking mechanism to get them on the rack safely and securely because these these actually lock on right yeah so they they have a locking mechanism they lock down and then you're able to pass a padlock through to fully lock them um to i guess to maintain that security of the box on top um with them but they have a locking mechanism in the cam lock as well just to hold it into place very cool yeah this thing's really really cool you guys got to be sure to come by roam adventure co talk to casey talk to anyone here check these boxes and the locking system out it's really cool thank you so much for your time casey i appreciate it yeah thanks for coming by thank you man all right guys i'm here with owen at dometic and owen you guys have a new product line that's launching very very soon correct uh that's correct um all that we've designed is a new expansion in our dometic go line um what the reason for it is um instead of having just our refrigerators and moving more into the vehicle-based adventure type product and so we came out with furniture water solutions storage to basically make uh create better solutions for people's needs excellent i know domatic has just been killing it with everything over landing i'm glad to see you guys kind of expanding the line to cover more areas because you can never have too much good quality stuff when it comes to over landing uh that's right and for the quality stuff is you know with where how dometic is with their cfx3 lines elevated like the quality of the refrigerators um in this market when it came to furniture we saw the same need um and so we did that excellent and i'm seeing that you guys have a chair a table a box but i i kind of want to focus more on the water storage container you have going on so for water it's one of the most unaddressed categories in camping in all forms of camping and over landing and so we really just focused directly on water storage um how you dispense it um and just how you use it so okay so is it a pressurized water system or is it where just a basically a storage solution uh well it's like uh two pieces so start with the water storage um right behind you here is the focusing on just how we store it if you think about all of the water containers out there it's usually repurposed gas cans this one's we focus solely on water water container and different ways to dispense it so tell me about the new table i mean it looks like bamboo so it is a bamboo table what we want to do is create all of our products to have a very elegant design so when you brought it into camp it really had a wow factor but you also really enjoyed it honestly you could use it anywhere and have that elegant look something like the leg features getting the legs out so you can store things under it because that's good for camp to be able to like sit under it or store things under it you wanted nothing to be or have everything to be multi-functional so perfect i know dometic sees nothing uncovered you guys usually knock it out of the park i have no doubt that this will be the same now those chairs behind you look very very comfortable how do they feel they are really comfortable well there's like a lot of chairs out there in the market our goal was to make sure that the sitting experience was not compromised but stowing furniture in a car is all is hard so the height of them when they're folded will fit behind the seat like your average small suv so like the compact or the folding was important just as important as the sitting so yeah space is at a premium over landing for sure and you also have a new box out correct yeah we've got a new storage box it's a 50 liter storage box which is like a aluminum plastic composite which gives you vertical walls it's lightweight stackable and then we also have soft storage which is a 10 liter and a 20 liter and then those fit actually will fit inside if we want to like segment stuff or when you're want to repack the stuff back in your garage you can nest everything to take up less space as well ah perfect all of it's waterproof excellent is there anything else in line that i'm missing um the waterfall sip we have in like i was saying with our dispensings we've created a a self-powered rechargeable water faucet that connects to the water storage it can it can connect with other water containers and it's an easy way to just dispense water um just kind of like uh just very easily so ah perfect you know what i really like to see that in operation can we see that absolutely all right let's do it here's the form factor it's a smaller form factor which is easier to use it's half the size of a full-size jerry can dispensing has been another key factor to make it easy to dispense nalgene style thread handle on the bottom um which makes it so it's extremely easy to pour out of i always feel like extremely poor all of these faucets will also come with a spigot cap when you buy it and what that does is it allows you to have at camp water dispensing there you go there you go large opening um which is makes it very easy to fill from a variety of water sources also allows you get your hand inside and clean it out so it'll never get and it'll never flunk out you can reach everything inside there has this pickup tube um which is attached to the cpc fitting what the cpc fitting allows you to do is to attach uh the other dometic product which is their self-powered self-priming uh water pump uh it's rechargeable with a usb and it'll pump 150 liters per charge it's self-priming just click it into the container turn on it'll pump the air out and then give you the water it's going to pump at a one liter minute and it will auto shut off at one minute there's a light underneath so using it at night and it's a capacitive touch so if you've got dirty hands i can turn it on wash my hands and turn it off without uh contaminating the there it's also um comes with two pucks like this and so it's got a magnetic base so i can actually create a remote water system on-demand watering camp all right owen that the functionality of that faucet was blowing my mind you guys have really just thought of everything when it comes to this solution uh yeah we put a lot of thought into it i've this has been something that's been on my mind for years um and it was nice and finally just bring it to fruition and bring it to the um to this crowd so excellent your guys's execution on this was top notch i mean the form factor everything i cannot speak to how amazing this whole thing is is really cool now now what are the price points for for all these items um price points are really reasonable that's one thing you want to make sure is approachable by everybody um the water faucet itself you just spoke of is 99 the water container is going to be um uh 70 dollars so 69 chairs 149 table 199 hard storage is gonna be 149 and then the soft storage range inside is going to be um 69 100 and the bench is gonna be 99 so everything's um all under that 200 price range yeah that is super reasonable especially for the quality that you guys are putting now that's impressive and where can people find you guys at i find all of this on um just dometics website but this is a sneak peek this stuff will all be available in spring 22 so it's not on the website now um so yeah definitely you get a little sneak peek but then definitely look for it in spring 22. all right adventure bill fans you guys have seen it here first dometic knocking out of the park owen thank you so much for your time i really appreciate it absolutely you guys definitely go check that out on dometic.com all right guys that was the absolute best essentials here at overland expo west in flagstaff arizona 2021 yes there's a ton of stuff out there i'm sure like always we missed something yeah if you guys saw something that we didn't comment below and we'll check it out for the next show yeah because i'll tell you what there's 500 and some odd vendors here this year it's hard to get everything but i feel like we did a good sampling of what was out there for sure so what do you think bro uh honestly i think my favorite was expedition essentials the paper towel holder that thing's just really cool it's super cool yeah like i like and it's cool because it's magnets i can just chuck that thing on anything metal yeah it's there yeah and it's always there it's never going to go anywhere yeah and it's one of those things where you never realize how many paper towels you use in a day until you have to dig it out of the oh yeah yeah and they're all gnarly and masked smashed dirt on them they come from yeah um for me uh shower pouch i mean because honestly i use them every trip even when we have access to a shower like just midday cleans ease yeah smell good they work so well oh yeah it's almost even worth pulling out the the five gallon jerry can't take a shower i think i think i have six that i need to do a refresh on yeah right yeah we'll make our own shower pouches using the old shower pouches exactly awesome all right guys hope you really liked that video be sure to hit that like button it does help the channel grow along with subscribing
