Camp Tableware

Camp tableware for vehicle-based travel: plates, bowls, mugs, cutlery, and mess tins that stack, nest, and pack light enough that you will actually bring them. Eating off a proper plate is a small thing that makes camp feel less like a bivouac.

Snow Peak and Camping Moon handle the titanium and stainless staples, with more pieces from Freespirit Recreation, Muraco, and Melvill & Moon — through to camp cups, trivets, and wine totes for the camp bar. Titanium is lighter and never rusts; stainless takes more abuse for less money.

Check that new pieces nest with the cookware you already carry — a plate set that will not stack flat eats drawer space fast.
