Deuter ACT Trail 20 SL Backpack - Women's - 1200cu in

March 19, 2012

k8, Laundry apartments is ok but your best bet would be to get a wet weather bag. This way you don't have to worry about compartments busting and ruining a good climb or hike. If still interested write the staff via chat. They can give you the down and dirty.

Great Helmet

La Sportiva Solution Vibram XS Grip2 Climbing Shoe

Rating for this product: 5 August 5, 2011

August
----------
The feel and the power behind these shoes is amazing. When climbing I feel like my feet can grip what ever my foot is placed on. No more worries on my end. Would I recommend them to a friend? Yes. Will I continue to buy this shoe? You better believe it.

Oct
----------
The shoes are still kicking butt. Grip feels just like the first time wearing them and after showing some nice grabs I have converted a few. Will continue recommending and buy :-D
