But I underestimated the brociety mascot. Same soft, long-fitting, heavyweight organic cotton t-shirts that backcountry's rolling out for the tramdock/whiskey/brociety lines. Can't go wrong for less than 10 bucks, just don't complain about the length (it shrinks substantially in the dryer)

After a winter of wearing my mountain khakis almost exclusively, I was beginning to get nervous at the thought of needing a lighter weight alternative for the summer. I spend most of my summer working outdoors, so shorts are an option and these shorts are your best bet if you're in a similar situation. You've heard all the reviews extolling the durability factors, so I won't be redundant. They're awesome shorts and worth picking up multiple pairs if you're going to need bombproof shorts for summer work/fun.

I don't recall it being mentioned anywhere on the product description page, but this is definately a slim fit shirt - at least after it's been run through the wash. Much tighter fit than other t-shirts I've purchased (including others by Enjoi) but I've got a relatively skinny frame that can pull it off. If you have a gut, this will accentuate very effectively. Great style, solid quality overall.

No way jose! I haven't played golf for a decade, but I spend my entire summer working outdoors and this bad boy fit the bill pretty well. High quality oakley design and awesome wicking fabric keeps you cooled off and looking good. Big, wide design with long sleeves, of course indicative of Oakley. Long in length, so it's best tucked in. Comes with a divet repair tool, rather useless and probably tacks 10 bucks onto the cost of the shirt, but with this deal on the outlet, who cares?

It shrinks, a lot. Everyone complains about horribly sized t shirts when in fact I have been satisfied with every organic shirt I've purchased from backcountry. After purchasing tramdock and brociety shirts, my girlfried got jealous and I ended up picking this one up for her in a size small. After her initial confusion over sizing, I told her to wait until after we ran it through the wash. It came out and fit her perfectly. She loves it now, nothing better than rocking the goat

I love Reef smoothy's and I just finished wearing my last pair into the ground. I picked up the Rastas in size 9 (I'm an 8.5) and they were uncomfortably small. My toes were almost hanging off the front and my heel just barely stretched off the back. These things are nirvana for your feet, just make sure you get the sizing right, I ended up needing to go up a full size.

Can't go wrong with a strong pair of GTX trail runners for 65 bucks. However these kicks were A. Quite different looking than the website depicted (ugly all black and silver uppers make it cheap looking) and B. the size was too small. I'm typically a 9, and I'll be rolling with a 9.5 if I decide to stick with the fire roads. They seem great otherwise.

Yes, the shirt runs long - which everyone knows from the start. Yes, the shirt is organic cotton, which shrinks like crazy, so after 2 runs through the wash it goes from "dress" to "slightly-longer-than-average." As another reviewer suggested, measure yourself if you're that concerned.

Slightly slimmer than I thought it would be and the collar's pretty tight - solid quality though.

I have been wearing XA Comp GTX's for the past 4 years now. They're awesome shoes, wicked comfortable, look great, and highly effective in a wide range of elements. However, I typically go through a pair a year. I use them for daily use and light hiking, and just about every pair started to fall apart at the 12 month mark. The outer fabric starts to tear along the outer toes, the heel comes unglued, and the pull cord on last years models snapped at 14 months. Let me state that I am in not overly abusive in my wearing - trail running 4 days a week, daily use in work and around town. I have the black-autobahn's this time around and after 6 months they're still hanging in there. As someone else noted, the yellow along the heel has chipped off and looks pretty lame, but that's just cosmetic. I am in love with Salomon footwear, just wish these badboys would hold up a bit better in the long run.
