Marmot Scree Softshell Pant - Men's    This product is no longer available
 
Great pants for a close fit.   11-05-07   

The M3 Softshell is great stuff, feels good and stretches well, while also providing abrasion resistance. I ordered a large based on the sizing for weight, but should have stuck with my usual medium. The fit seems true to one's regular size. The pants should fit not too loose, not very snug but close-fitting. The stretch is there for ease of movement without the need for extra material. Too bad I need to return, I think they would be great pants for hiking in high country.

66 North Iceland Gola Jacket - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Stylish but functional   10-18-07   

I use this for town or after winter hike in lodge. It looks good (Euro style) and is really warm but light-weight. On evenings when you don't want to wear that same fleece you worked up a sweat in or used as a hardground pillow. True to size if fitting for a trim, athletic build. If you're bulked or buffed up, think a size larger. 66 North is always high quality.

Ex Officio Give-N-Go Sport Brief - Men's    This product is no longer available
 
Everything true   04-17-07   

I needed these for travel and hiking. Everything they write up is true. Light weight, way easy to wash and quick hang dry. Most importantly on traveling, they're stay odor free unlike most poly base layer.

CW-X Mesh Brief - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
True write up   04-17-07   

Good support, light weight, cool and odor free, these briefs are great for hiking and traveling. A little larger brief than I prefer (I like a micro brief), but will settle for the positive as a trade-off.

Backcountry.com Goat Klean Kanteen - 40 oz    This product is no longer available
 
Clean when you need it most.   11-17-07   

Never did like tasting plastic when I'm thirsty. Goat Klean does keep it clean, and sometimes you do need to carry a 40 ounce.

Osprey Packs Exposure 66 Backpack - 4000cu in    This product is no longer available
 
Light on the way up. Comfortable on the way down.   11-17-07   

I really appreciate this Osprey pack after using a much heavier but not much bigger pack. Light weight and 66L, it carries a full load for a week's trek (especially if you also pack light gear). The support I find to be excellent, while not bulky and stiff. The trim design helps on the uneven way up. I usually divide my gear in color bags so there is no need for added access (and weight) of side or bottom entry. I'm very pleased.

GoLite Element Jacket - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Not eye candy   05-01-07   

Great jacket, lightweight, cool cut...I just couldn't wrap around the colors available. The red is flashier than a sports car on a four wheel track.

The North Face Apex Free Climb Jacket - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Great jacket   03-22-08   

The cut of this softshell lends itself to be worn slim style. I ordered down a size and it's perfect. I'm 190, 6'1" and the M is fine for a trim fit. Otherwise I would have found it too large. Beads up any rain and is surprisingly warm.

66 North Iceland Vik Jacket - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Athletic cut warmth   10-03-07   

The Vik is super light, soft, next-to-skin designed warmth. 66 offers great quality, and here is the same. The Vik looks good and keeps you warm.

66 North Iceland Glymur Pant - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
66 scores 100 again   09-22-07   

These pants are great: lightweight, breathable and waterproof tough. I use them 4 season trekking and they stay like new. 3 layer eVENT is the best I've come across. And when 66 North and Backcountry team up, you can't do better.

66 equals 100%   09-17-07   

I love this brand. They offer consistently high quality wear. The Vik is a close fitting, next-to-skin top with cool styling and tech function.
