Without a doubt, one of the best all-around skis I have ever owned. A delight to ski. Anonymous is right on

I bought these on sale last year right before going on a couple of commercial river trips. The guides all looked at them like I was crazy, but after the river trips, trips to Nicaragua and Hawaii-I am sold on them-they are awesome

When I first got this pack I was not sure about it-it kind of has a funny shape. However after using it it (Hut to Hut-no tent or bag), I think it is great. It rides really well, the most important attribute. The only funky things are the buckles, which seem whimpy and are; give them a good pull and they will snap in two

I have a pair of old strech triolet pants that have been 5+ star. I was hoping these would replace them, but I should have read the product description closer "Details include a Bombay Fly for no-hassle relief when nature calls; " This Fly Sucks. It goes all the way around and is annoying as hell. The way the zipper is made, arcteryx imitation, it is really wide and uncomforatble; rubs on your thighs. It also runs up your butt, when you sit down it feels like you have a kevlar rope g-string on. And really, how often to you need to completely unzip down the middle? I agree with the other reviewers that it runs small, and unlike the big guy, I though it was short seamed. There is also only one pocket, just big enough to keep you lipstick in (I don't even think an I-phone would fit in it). Don't ski clothing designers carry anything in their pockets? I might be OK for ice climbing, but this is not a pant for ski-touring.

Great Jacket-I have had several over the years. I wish I would have gotten the version with hand pockets. ps Dear Marmot: I miss the hood they used to have; you didn't use it much, but when you needed it it was awesome

These are not as weird as the Arc'teryx Palisade Short (see review), but they are definitely made in the same factory

These are the weirdest pants I have bought since I bought a pair of Joe Namath replica hot pants when I was 12 The seem to be designed by a collaboration between star trek and the village people Strange fabric and fit Maybe I'm just too old; give me patagonia canvas anyday
