Holiday Gift Idea: Stormy Sidekick

Have a friend who could be more organized while hunting or camping? The Stormy Kromer Sidekick proves that a wearable waist pack doesn’t have to look like something out of The Jetsons. Produced by Ironwood, Michigan-based Stormy Kromer the Sidekick pack is made of a wool/nylon blend, but it is also made in America and if you happen to drop by the factory they’ll even give you a tour. Maybe you can see your own Sidekick being produced!

SHOT Show: Get Your Sidekick and Wingman

As any good adventurer knows, it is good to have a sidekick for your journey. Likewise, a wingman comes in handy for so much more than just cruising the bars. A sidekick and a wingman should be reliable through thick and thin, and now you can actually buy one of each – of the multi-tool variety that is.

At last week’s SHOT Show in Las Vegas, Leatherman introduced the Sidekick and Wingman – two new tools that feature contemporary design for the first-time multi-tool buyers. Both tools will be made from 420 stainless steel and feature Leatherman’s popular outside-accessibility-to-tools design, including a saw, knife, scissors, screwdriver, pliers, bottle/can opener, serrated knife and much more.

While meant for the price-conscience buyer – the Sidekick will retail for $29.99 and the Wingman at $39.99 – when they arrive in September of this year, as with other Leatherman products these products still feature the company’s industry-leading, no-hassle, 25 year warranty.  Move over Swiss Army Knife, we’d rather have the American-made Sidekick or Wingman with us on our next journey.
