The Best VSSL Outdoor Tools & Gear


VSSL creates waterproof, extremely rugged military-grade aluminum tubes filled with invaluable gear for every adventure. From essential outdoor equipment like First-Aid Kits, Supplies, and Fire Starters — to camp comforts like Coffee Grinders and Hidden Flasks — no matter where you’re headed or what you might need, there’s a VSSL for you.

Every inch of the VSSL tube is packed to the gills with gear, and even the end caps feature lifesaving tools like a compass and flashlight.

If you don’t see a VSSL that’s perfectly suited to your needs, you can also design-your-own — customizing everything from the color to the contents until it’s just right.

We’ve rounded up our favorite pieces of VSSL equipment below.
