After ordering the size 11 ( usually a size 10 ) because of the reviews saying the boots ran small and finding them to be too big, I returned them for a size 10 which fit just right. So , I would consider these boots run true to size. I bought these boots because my feet tend to overheat when hiking and these look to have plenty of mesh then another fine mesh on top to keep sand, etc out. I am yet to test them out, but they seem to fit my foot well - narrow heel and ankle but wider in the forefoot.

This wetsuit was a weird fit for me. I am 5'10" and weigh less than 130lbs. I had previously tried a size 12 which was too short in the body. The size 14 was still not long enough, it was too big in the legs and too tight in the arms with an uncomfortable pressure spot where the seams meet in the batwing behind the shoulder area. I used to work at a surf shop so I am familiar with wetsuit thickness - this is the thinnest 2mm in the arms that I have ever encountered. The body was definitely 3mm but the arm area was more like 1.5mm and I was dubious as to whether it would even keep that area warm.

I was hopeful that a size 12 would fit me ( limited sizes to choose from) but in reality it wasn't the right size - I think a size 10T would have been more my size. The construction and quality of materials looked great so I was disappomited to have to send the wetsuit back.

I accidently reviewed previously for the incorrect product ( Icebreaker endeavour pant - love it!!)....I do also really like this pant slimmer in the leg than the Endeavour pant but wider than the Lily pant. The 220 weight of this pant will be great for colder weather. This pant is long in the leg but for me it isn't a problem and better than being too short - Endeavour pant runs shorter than this style.

I bought this pant in black since I use the other pair I already have in another color all the time. Very comfortable - more fitted around the hips then wide leg .... I like this pant better then the Icebreaker City Lily pant which I returned after it didn't fit me so well.

I ordered a size up per the previous reviewers saying this skirt rode high on waist. I prefer clothes to sit just above my hips and the size up was just fine. Very comfortable,lightweight, practical with all the pockets and perfect for travelling , hiking etc. I think I am going to buy another one in a different color, I like it so much.

For some reason I ordered a half size bigger than my usual size so the shoes a little too long but they still seem to fit like they were custom made evrywhere else. The leather lining is very comfortable to wear without socks and I love not having to worry about laces!

This jacket is well made , however the cut for me was very weird. Slightly stiff fabric with the style cut very curvy for the hips even though the jacket is quite short in length. This meant that I felt like I had a "hula hoop" effect between the waist and hip which looked pretty weird ( I don't have large hips). Without any kind of drawcord to cinch in the bottom hem , the problem was accentuated.
