super cute

Ubercute hat! I get compliments on it everytime I wear it. And Backcountry's outlet prices are so great, that I'm getting organic items like this for about the same cost as comparable clothing made of synthetic or chemically treated fibers. BTW, the hat I received was OS, as described. |

many lovable qualities, but not perfect

Having two larger zippered pockets (as opposed to the typical one huge can't-find-anything pocket) and three snap pockets on the exterior keeps this purse pretty organized; it's cargo, but cute; and it's ORGANIC, in case you need another excuse to feel good about shopping. The only drawback I've found are the openings on the zipper pockets: The zippers don't open quite fully enough to get longer items quickly out of those pockets. |

| Patagonia All-Wear Cargo Short - Men's Read other reviews of this product |
Actually true to size

The 32 I received had a 33 inch waist, which is perfectly reasonable breathing room. In true cargo style, they were by no means form fitting either. Some things are relative (like someone's assessment of themselves as a "skinny guy"), but the measuring tape I used to measure the waist of these shorts is standardized, so if you're in doubt, take your waist measurement before ordering. but Backcountry.com has such a great shipping policy (free on most orders), and hassle-free returns and exchanges, I wouldn't sweat too much over any reviewer's assessment of sizing. |

flattering, runs a little small

I had to exchange this for the next size up, but I don't mind. A little extra work in the beginning, but it's all lounging about the house feeling extra cute ever since. |

| Hemp Hoodlamb Droptop Hoodlamb Jacket - Women's Read other reviews of this product |
all that is gold doesn't necessarily glitter

True this jacket does not have the sheen it appears to have in the photos, but it has so many other attributes that are far more jmportant to me: It is a good-looking casual jacket with a nice fit, and warm enough for our climate (rarely snow, but many frosty mornings). To top it off, it's almost completely eco-friendly (the faux fir is a synthetic+hemp blend). The sleeves might be a bit long for women with average-short arms, depending on your build, but they are about for me. I am 5'11", 125#, and the medium is as loose about the body (I have about a 33" chest) as I would go for and the sleeves are a comfortable length--just past my wrists, slightly covering the heel of my hands. The is the first jacket (besides my ski jacket, because that's all about function) that I haven't wanted to get taken in about the bust and waist. that is all to say, I love it! |

great shirt...for women?

this shirt has a feminine cut....something about the neckline, maybe... my husband wasn't going to wear it, so I kept it. it fits nicely, and, as you can expect from most organic cotton, it is super soft. |

Cute, though odd fit

OG cotton is SOOO soft, both my girls love this dress, but for anyone really picky about the fit, there is some excess fabric between the back straps that bunches a bit. Still cute and comfortable for summer play. |
