At Boyz N The Wood, we want every man to be well-equipped for their journey to restoring and reigniting their best selves. Nature is one of our five pillars of restorative connection and not-so-secret ingredient. It’s a powerful environment to reduce stress and build community, but can be tough to connect if you’re not prepared, don’t know where to go, or don’t have people to go with. That’s where the right gear and partners come in. During our summer collaboration with the amazing team at @camp.yoshi , guys gathered for rest, good food, deep breaths, brotherhood, and yes, chasing waterfalls. And just like we equip the Boyz with mental health tools during our retreat, we partnered with @teva to provide hiking gear that met the moment. These boots close the gap between curiosity and access, between wanting to explore and actually putting feet on the ground. And when Black men are properly equipped? We get started towards that restoration for each man and their communities. Let’s hit the trail.
