I agree with the last review. These are definitely lightweight, but they are way too stiff. They do okay tracking through powder. On groomers there is chatter. I wish I bought the Havocs. Demoed them after I bought these and they are awesome.

I do a lot of running and these are my favorite socks. They are super comfy and they seem to stay dry, even in hot running weather. They are also really nice looking and last forever.

Moving Comfort definitely makes the best fitting in bras and underwear. I only wore one other sports bra before this, and it was so uncomfortable I did not run one mile before I had to remove it. A friend suggested this one and I love it. Super comfy, wicks sweat and dries quick, easy to take on and off, and...nothing moves.

These are the best underwear. No wedgies, super comfy, and fit low enough so no one se's them. I typically wear a 6 and the medium is perfect.

I love Patagonia stuff. It lasts forever and has a great cut and color. Unfortunately, the Capilene products get so stinky so fast. More so than other synthetic fabrics. Even after washing it, it still has a gnarly odor in the armpit area. This is my last Capilene purchase.

I agree with the website on sizing. Especially if you prefer more of a performance fit. These are definitely comfortable boots. I do wish that the buckles were a bit easier to use. They are not long enough and they are stiff. It seems almost as though they were made for a really skinny foot.

These are pretty nice shoes. They have supportive bottoms and the blue ones are a nice fuzzy fabric. They go well with jeans. My only complaint is that the North Face has a weird fit for these shoes.

I bought these to work with my Scarpa boots and they do not work. The connector piece is not big enough.

I love these. They are styling and make my big feet look not so big. They are extremely comfortable. Although I recommend wearing plusher insoles with them.

It is definitely waterproof and lightweight. I keep it in my hydration pack when I am hiking peaks. It is not very breathable at all. Also, the size small is perfect everywhere but the sleeves are too short and I am only 5'7”. I wish I had bought the Mountain Hardware Epic like my husband.

I demoed these after I bought the mystics and I am so sad...These are awesome. They are super easy to control and they definitely rip it up. They aren't too soft, but not as hard as the Mystics. No chatter on the groomers and they track well in powder.

Not only are these really comfortable, they are super stylin’. They have a low-fitting waist and great cut. I normally take a size 6 in clothing and that was what worked for these pants as well. The A5 clothing line has great casual clothing.

I used this when I was working for an outdoor program for juvenile delinquents. This is without a doubt the best headlamp. It combines halogen with LED so you have a mix of brightness and distance lighting. It’s fairly lightweight and it never broke once compared with all the other lights I have used.

I have owned a pair of these shoes, or a few pairs of these shoes for about ten years. Excellent quality and ideal for any kind of climbing. These rock. Get at least one half size smaller as they stretch over time.

I just bought this for my husband and it looks great. The sizing fits true, he typically takes a large and I ordered a large. I purchased the ripe green and it looks nice with pants or jeans. He likes it too.

I bought this in the size I normally wear, medium. I had to return it for a small. It fits a bit larger than I expected, even with layers. It's a great jacket for around town. Super soft, I love it.

I always have trouble finding sunglasses that fit. I have a small face with a wide nose. Most sunglasses are to large looking for my face or they do not fit my nose. These fit and look really nice. I purchased the Lagoon color and I love them.

These are the best sandals. I wear them as an everyday shoe through the summer. The tread is bomber. I can hike with a full size pack and they fully support my feet. It definitely takes time to get the right adjustment but once you do these are the best.

These are excellent sneaks. Without a doubt the best that I have owned. Montrail has the best fit with the most support. I train and run trail races in these. For myself and others it seems that people consistently need 1/2 size larger than what they normally wear.

I just wore these in the Wasatch Back Relay Race. They are really comfortable, and a perfect fit. They dry quickly, which was helpful in this race, and don't get stinky. I am a size six and a medium was perfect. I wish there was a special Gu pocket. That is the only change I would make.

This is a great shirt for a great price. It’s super soft and fits true to size. Perfect for hiking and for hanging out. Has a fitted look but not super tight. Definitely worth having a couple.

This shirt is awesome. It is perfect for both hiking and wearing around town. It never smells like all the polyester shirts. It is 100% wool and yet it is perfect for all the desert hiking I do. It has a really nice cut and it is super soft. All of icebreakers stuff is super high quality. My only complaint is that their stuff is so hard to find.
