The North Face Fortress Peak GTX Hiking Boot - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
North Face never fails   07-29-08   

These boots were pretty much great right out of the box. I made two long hikes with these right out of the box and the only discomfort I felt was above the ankles and around my Achilles which could have been easily avoided had I taken some time to break them in better. Other than that there was no discomfort in my feet at all, the felt great! I love the old school style and the feel is great.

Chaco Hipthong Sandal - Men's    Read other reviews of this product
 
Hipthong   05-28-08   

It has been a long time since I've owned a pair of sandals that I love to wear every day but I have definately found that in the Chaco Hipthong. The sandal fit perfect from the moment they came out of the box. I wear a size 9 shoe and ordered the same size in this sandal and it is a true fit. I will definately buy Chaco again and I will definately buy it from this site. If you're lookin for a great sandal you can wear everyday for anything check this one out for sure.

Osprey Packs Aether 70 Backpack- 4000-4400cu in    Read other reviews of this product
 
Disappointed   07-29-08   

I was really excited when I got this pack because of all the great reviews. I went on a backpacking trip to Glacier and with weight in it the pack didn't perform well. The straps stretched out so it didn't fit properly and they kept loosening. Also one of the buckles broke on the pack the second day just from tightening it. The water bottle holders on the sides are so tight getting a bottle in there with a full pack is near impossible and they are extremely inaccessible with the pack on. The hip belts kept sliding so pressure was distributed in all the wrong places causing my knees to angle inward causing a lot of hip and foot pain as well as uncomfortable rubbing and pressure on my lower back. Make sure the pack really fits before you buy, try it with weight in it. Also if you need to take lots of drink breaks make sure you have someone behind you to pull out your nalgene and put it back because you won't be able to with it on.

Black Diamond Vista 3-Person 3-Season Tent    This product is no longer available
 
Wake up wet   07-29-08   

This tent was a lot heavier and bulkier than I anticipated. The fly did not fit properly on the tent, there was so much slack, even when tied down, the fly rested on the netting so when it collected dew it would drip through the screen. The floor of the tent also soaked up a lot of moisture from the ground so it was always wet in the mornings. I'd keep shopping if you are looking for a good tent.
