The Oontz from Cambridge Soundworks is pretty good, despite the stupid name: https://www.amazon.com/Cambridge-SoundWorks-OontZ-Angle-Generation/dp/B010OYASRG
I know north face are not the go to shoes for hiking, but my best shoes are :New The North Face Men's Hedgehog Fastpack GTX Hiking Shoes
https://www.amazon.com/North-Face-Hedgehog-Fastpack-Gore-Tex/dp/B00LMWA7TO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466965842&sr=8-1&keywords=north+face+hiking+shoes
I use a [Helinox Sunset Chair] (http://www.amazon.com/Helinox-Sunset-Chair-Black/dp/B00SJTF9AU/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1449176673&sr=8-13&keywords=helinox+chair+one+camp+chair). It has a high back, very comfortable, sturdy, easy to set up and take down and weighs in at 3.3 pounds.
Permethrin treated clothes is definitely the way to go and I've also had success with Repel 100 for the skin
Audobon Society field guides have always served me well. You can get general ones (birds of North America, mammals of North America, plants of North America, etc.), or you can get more specific ones for the region you're in that include plants, animals, geology, etc.
The only issue I could see is that the regional guides usual base their focus on the United States. That being said, the National Audubon Society Field Guide to the Rocky Mountain States (Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, and Colorado) should contain much of the same wildlife as you'd find in Alberta.
The other big name (at least in the United States) is Peterson, though I'm not sure if they have regional guides. I'm most familiar with their larger reference books.
those are pretty pricey :P i'm looking for 30-50 pound. . they don't have to be heavy duty. the wetness i'm walking about is rain, i should probably say water resistant not water proof. warmth i'm just looking for them to be decent. i was looking at some sealskinz dragon eye gloves(http://www.amazon.co.uk/SEALSKINZ-DragonEye-Glove-Black-L/dp/B00M24SAMM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417897389&sr=8-1&keywords=sealskinz+dragon+eye) but some people were saying they were pretty shite.
the SAS guys book is pretty good: http://www.amazon.com/SAS-Survival-Guide-Handbook-Collins/dp/0060849827

If he enjoys camping, he might like a Luci Light
I've personally always liked a nice Straw Hat.
keens. closed toe, open sides, super comfortable. I have had these for around five years, a little expensive, but worth every penny.
edit to add vibram soles...awesome for slippery river rocks
Have you considered Rtic? They are the exact same product as yeti at about 1/2 the price. You can get them through amazon. I know people that use them with excellent feedback.
