☀️SUN & HEAT
Stay hydrated through Florida’s heat with insulated water bottles and electrolytes that are great for workouts, outdoor activities and everyday life.
A convenient electrolyte drink mix for hot days and sweaty workouts. I especially like this for running, lifting and spending long periods outside in the Florida heat.
Zero Sugar Electrolytes | Paleo-Keto Friendly Hydration - LMNT
A great everyday Florida water bottle with double-wall insulation, a leak-proof lid and Owala’s built-in FreeSip straw. Perfect for keeping cold water with you at the gym, on a run or during a day outside.
FreeSip® Water Bottle
A durable insulated bottle that keeps drinks cold for hours. Great for workouts, outdoor activities, beach days and everyday Florida life.
YETI 26 oz. Rambler Bottle with Color-Matched Straw Cap
One of my favorite simple ways to cool down during outdoor workouts and hot Florida days. Wet it, wring it out and wear it around your neck for quick cooling.
Cooling Towels for Instant Heat Relief
A compact rechargeable fan that’s easy to carry to outdoor events, the beach, theme parks, workouts and anywhere else you don’t want to be stuck sweating.
JISULIFE 3 IN 1 Portable Fan w/ Power Bank & Flashlight
A classic Florida essential. I like aviators because they go with basically everything and are perfect for driving, beach days, golf or just being outside in that Florida sun.
Aviator Sunglasses | Ray-Ban® USA
Sunscreen is non-negotiable in Florida. I like this one because the lightweight, invisible finish makes it much easier to actually wear every day instead of feeling like you’re covered in sunscreen.
The Unseen Sunscreen Collection
🏖️BEACH & POOL
Practical beach and pool essentials for spending long days outside without worrying about your phone, valuables, music or the Florida sun.
This is the sunscreen we actually use on our faces. It feels lightweight and doesn’t leave that heavy, greasy sunscreen feeling, which makes it much easier to use every day in Florida.
UV Active Broad Spectrum SPF 50+
A must-have for Florida beach and pool days. I love a towel that dries quickly instead of sitting wet in the car or beach bag all day.
Quick-Dry Beach Towels | Sand-Free Towels | Dock & Bay
Small enough to clip onto a beach bag or backpack but powerful enough for outdoor listening. Waterproof and dustproof, making it a great Florida beach and pool companion.
JBL Clip 5 | Ultra-portable waterproof speaker
A useful waterproof bag for keeping your phone, wallet, keys and other valuables protected around the beach, pool or boat.
Sea to Summit Lightweight Dry Bag 3-Piece Set
If you live in Florida, you’re going to want cold water with you everywhere. The Quencher is huge, popular and easy to throw in the car for workouts, errands, beach days or basically any time you’re leaving the house.
The Quencher H2.0 Flowstate™ Tumbler | 40 OZ
Perfect for beach days, boat days, picnics or keeping drinks cold when you’re spending hours outside. A good cooler gets used constantly in Florida.
Carryout™ Collection: Durable Soft Cooler Bags & Totes
🏃♂️FLORIDA FITNESS
My go-to gear for running, training and staying active in Florida’s heat, humidity and bright sunshine.
My go-to when I want one pair of shoes that can do it all. Comfortable enough for walking around all day, but versatile enough to throw on for a run, workout or exploring a new place.
Men's Running Shoes. Nike.com
My pick for Florida runners who want music without completely blocking out their surroundings. The open-ear design makes these especially useful for running and outdoor workouts.
SHOKZ OpenRun Bone Conduction Open-Ear BT
Lightweight running sunglasses that give you eye protection while you’re training outside. A great everyday option for bright Florida mornings and long runs.
No-Slip Running Sunglasses
Lightweight moisture-wicking running gear is essential when training in Florida. Dri-FIT shirts are a reliable everyday option for running and gym workouts.
Mens Dri-FIT Running Tops and T-Shirts
🌧️ FLORIDA WEATHER
Florida weather can change quickly, so these are useful things to keep nearby for sudden rain, long days away from home and everyday Florida life.
One of those things you don’t realize you need until you’re caught in a Florida downpour. I love having a waterproof backpack for beach days, boat trips and outdoor adventures when I need to keep my phone, clothes and other essentials protected.
