On this episode, Dagan Van Oosten, one of the co-founders of Nomadic Research shares the story behind the brand and their incredibly well-priced and well-built products.

There is no shortage of options in today's outdoor gear market. But, how do you really know whether you're buying something that will live up to the marketing hype and promises? Are you really getting what you paid for or being duped by buzzwords and slick content?

If you've never heard of Nomadic Research, it's a brand that's worth a hard look, especially if your lifestyle spans a variety of outdoor pursuits and adventures. Dagan and his co-founder are proof that when you put the end-user first, good things happen.
