I don't know what kind of experience the first poster had, but I've had excellent experience with this stove in cold, windy, hi altitude weather. I've used it to melt snow several times this year without any problems. In fact, last week I had this stove in snow at Rocky Mountain National Park at 9000 ft. at 22°F with 30mph winds and still timed the stove boiling a liter at 3 minutes 30 seconds!! This with a half-empty canister! No other canister stove that I've used in the past even comes close to this. For those who want a canister stove that will work in the worst conditions (above 0°F), this is it.

Just so you know Westcomb does make all their pants in short, regular, and long versions both for men and women. Because they are a new company, some of these sizes are hard to find (you can get in contact with them through westcomb.com). Hopefully sites like backcountry.com will support the brand more fully and offer different lengths in their pants. Westcomb is dedicated to making the best outerwear and paramount to that is how it fits. This will be what ultimately separates them from the crowd in the coming years.

This is one of the best layering pieces I've ever owned! It has a great fit, the thumb loops in the sleeves makes it super easy to put on outer hard or soft shells, and the iPod controller is awesome! For the first reviewer, you need to hold down the 'fast-forward button' for 3 seconds in order for it to work (automatically locks out so you don't accidently push the buttons). The Wind Pro fleece lets in just amount of wind to cool me down and the Hard Face outer surfacing helps to bead up the water. I can also wash it without worrying about wires. Great design! When are we going to see more Westcomb???
