A wise man once said “Good luck is the result of preparation,”or maybe we read it off a mug somewhere. Either way, it’s something we stand behind. A photo posted by Campbox Co. (@campboxco) on Nov 19, 2014 at 6:39am PST

Even your sister who’s hiked the Appalachian Trail twice could even find something new and useful with Isle Box.

Prepper Gear Box is all about preparedness – from natural disasters to car emergencies to pandemic.

Check into this if survivalist gear is your thing. To keep costs down, Prepper Gear Box would rather send subscribers a box with a fewer, higher quality items. Instead of sending a box full of items, Prepper Gear Box curates their boxes carefully, selecting two to three high-quality items.

5. BivySak ($24.99/mo.)

The brains behind BivySak promise they won’t add anything to boxes they wouldn’t use, and from what we can tell, that seems like a legitimate claim. Past boxes show that BivySak partners with some of the giants in the industry like GSI Outdoors, Salomon, and Patagonia.

What sets them apart: They base their boxes around the seasons. Pay a monthly installment, and you’ll receive a box every March, June, September, and December.

Opt for this box if you’re looking for an investment. Although you pay weekly installments, you won’t see your first box for three months. As always, patience is a virtue, and in this case, it’s worth the wait.

6. The KinderBox ($35.00/mo.)
