Ok, I am usually not a pansy, but I cannot really go anywhere without this jacket. Camping, Backpacking, Running Daily errands...you name it, this jacket can do it. It's 650 fill down keeps me warm and snuggly in almost any conditions. The pockets are lined with gold.....I mean fleece that makes my hands sing! And the hood is detachable making it a very versatile piece. Runs a little bit on the big side, so your natural size will be sufficient for layering.

Did I mention that I really love these dishes. Now I understand that love is a strong word to use when referring to a plastic set of dishes, but they deserve it!! These dishes are perfect for anyone. I have purchased several sets for: Camping, Backpacking, Emergency 72 hour kits, Lunches, Pic-nic baskets, and the list goes on. They are very lightweight, durable, and easy to use. I would recommend these to anyone.

So so comfortable. Now I now that is not a full sentence, but that is what I sound like when I am lying on this pad, incoherent! I got this for Christmas and can't wait to try it out in the real world. I was a bit worried about rolling off the mat, but was able to fix the problem by letting out a bit of the air. If you are sick of waking up with sore hips when you are camping (especially the gals out there), get this pad!!

I was actually pretty surprised with these pants. They are great quality. I needed a pair of pants for my husband and didn't want to spend a ton. These have all the bells and whistles of pants twice their price. Very comfortable and very functional.

These stuff sacks are fabulous because they come in so many sizes. Outside of the obvious storage uses you might think of, these are also great as a bear bag, toiletry kit, 72 hour bag, etc... Super tough so you know they'll last for a long time.

Like all of the products you can get from Eagle Creek, this one is a must have. Works especially good for things like shoes, toothbrushes, soap, and lotion. I probably could travel without them...but I don't want to!

I really like this water bottle because it is durable, easy to clean, doesn't make things taste funny. Not the greatest insulator, but I can live with that. Also you can't really put hot things in it without burning your fingers (the only reason this guy didn't get a 5 star rating). Other than that I like it!

This jacket is the perfect fall jacket. The duck canvas makes this a perfect durable camping jacket, without feeling like I am wearing my Husbands clothing. It definitely runs small so I would recommend going up one size.

I originally bought this jacket for my sister for her Birthday. My Mom was so impressed with the jacket that I had to get one for her Birthday! She has many cold issues, so this jacket is perfect for her. I got her the Blue River color to match her blue eyes.

I am one of those people that once my toes/hands/person gets cold, I stay cold for long periods of time! These boots never allow my footsies to get cold, thus making the rest of my body very jealous. These boots are lightweight, warm, and very comfortable. Great for everything from snowshoeing to shoveling the walk!

I bought these pant as a gift for my sister who like the reviewer jam2540966 get freakishly cold! She just loves them. They fit like a glove and add just enough additional insulation. She stays warm and toasty.

My brother-in-law got this for Christmas and love it. Just the right amount of insulation for a Fall hoodie.

I love this hoodie. It's nice and thin so you don't overheat when hanging out indoors, and is very easy to layer over when heading out.

I bought this for my sister-in-law for Christmas and then wanted one for myself. So comfortable, and just the right thickness.

I got this for my mother-in-laws dog. As loveable as he is, he is not the brightest bulb in the bunch. This little light is perfect to keep track on him.

This fleece vest is excellent for the price. It is very soft and has a great fit. Perfect for Fall temperatures.

This vest is very nice because it has a simple, clean line. It is very flattering, but I would agree that you should go a size down. I am usually between a Medium and a large, and the medium fit baggy.

These pants are so stinking comfortable. I use them for pretty much everything. Running, hiking, climbing, bumming around the house...you get the picture. The shorter length is perfect for summer activities. I practically live in these from April to October.

I got this purse for a friend and it has become a permanent fixture on her arm. It is bigger than it appears on the site, but I ended up really liking it's size.

My husband is very happy with this vest. He has the matching jacket so I was certain the vest would be a hit for his Birthday. He works outdoors year round and this vest add just enough warmth. It is a bulky piece, but luckily it is all focused at the core so it feels like you are wearing a snuggly sleeping bag around your mid section. I would recommend this to anyone.

I really like these slippers for a few reasons. They are really lightweight, comfortable, warm and compact. Perfect for backpackers who need a way to warm up in their tent or yurt. I got myself a pair, then ordered them for all of my friends for Christmas!

These saved my favorite hiking boots. My boots' uppers were perfectly broken in, but the insole left much to be desired. I tried other insoles, but they didn't offer the support I needed. I put the superfeet in and felt like I had a whole new boot on. I have since put them in my running shoes, snowboard boots, and even my hockey skates! I love them.

If you do a lot of hiking in the dessert like me, you need these tips. Hiking in Arches was so much easier with these rubber tips. Plus I didn't have to worry about the tips of my poles breaking off. These are a great bargain!

I love BD! I have had my trekking pole for about 3 years now and use them everywhere. That is why I love the snow baskets. I like that I don't have to buy a separate pair of poles for snowshoeing and winter hiking. Super durable and cheap to boot!

These shoes do just as the title suggests. I can stand all day long and not get tired.

This silverware set is a great alternative for someone who doesn't want to take the titanium plunge! Compact and lightweight when every ounce counts, and they stack together so I don't have to dig for each piece.

This fleece is the perfect weight for layering, or for wearing out on a chilly day. Super soft with a flattering fit. I would highly recommend this to anyone needing a good basic piece.

This cube is the perfect in between size when you are low on packing space. I have fit quite a bit more in this puppy than I thought possible. I usually use them in my gym bag to carry a change of clothes, and my workout clothes. I can usually fit a pair of pants and a top with no problems.

I bought this one to use in my gym bag. I used to have a smaller kit, but I just couldn't fit the daily essentials (such as a full bottle of shampoo...very important). Big open compartment makes things easy to find, and the detachable mirror means I don't have to be a contortionist to get ready!

Nice small lock for the unexpected situations. I know what you are thinking...when would you unexpectedly need a lock! Mine has been great for Biking, travel, and a little extra security on my car rack. For the price, it's a great lock to have around.

I bought these to use at the gym, because I was tired of my cloth flip flops taking forever to dry. Great for a day at the beach or shower shoes when at the gym or traveling from hostel to hostel. The only down side was that they were a little snug across my foot. I don't think I would like to walk great distances in them.

I bought this jacket for my husbands annual hoody fest (he gets a new one each fall) and I haven't seen him out of it since. Burly lining keeps out the cold.

These dishes are a lightweight alternative to eating out of pot/pan. They take a little practice putting together, but overall are not too complicated. Easy to clean since they fold out flat, and quite versatile. I have a set with my camping gear and in my emergency 72 hour kits.

Being a travel-o-holic I know the importance of an organized pack. In my opinion, this is one of the best products out there. Makes it really easy when you have those random inspections at the airport. And since they come in a whole bunch of sizes, you can pack everything under the sun...and still be able to find it!

This egg carrier is the perfect size (honestly who needs 12 eggs!). I love the stabilzers inside that keep my eggs from rattling around and making a mess of my backpack.

I absolutely love this tent for summer camping. Because of all the mesh it feels bigger than it actually is. This tent is lightweight, durable, and will hold up in a storm. Can be cold in the fall and winter, but perfect for warm weather camping.

This little head lamp packs a lot of power for 19.90. I needed a light weight, small, cheap backup headlamp for my fishing box. This one definitely fits the bill. 3 led lights takes care of me when I need to hike, cook, play cards, read...you get the idea! I also like that this lamp takes AAA batteries instead of hard to find expensive coin batteries.
