Cute, comfy, wearable

Patagonia Eshie Dress - Women's

Patagonia Eshie Dress - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 August 30, 2008

Lovely soft fabric with nice drape. Washes and dries easily. Flattering cut. However, I'm a B-cup and I don't see how anyone could get away with skipping a bra underneath. I wouldn't call it "substantial." It's normal to not have a bra built into a dress, just don't expect it to do something it doesn't. It's definitely an A-line - and if it wasn't, I couldn't wear it. I'm bigger on the bottom than the top, and I usually can't wear Patagonia pants because if the waist fits, they're too tight in the thighs. As it is, I really like this dress.

Timbuk2 Classic Messenger Bag

August 20, 2008

Does anybody have experience using the XL messenger as an airline carry-on? I've got a 3-day business trip (read: 3 businesswear outfits + toiletries) coming up and I'd like to avoid checking baggage. Thanks!!!

Black Diamond Cosmo Headlamp

Black Diamond Cosmo Headlamp

Rating for this product: 3 May 30, 2008

This is the same product as the women's Moxie, just in different colors. I'm impressed with how darn bright this is and how comfortable it is to wear. The adjustable beam works much better than expected. It's also really stable walking around. Haven't tried it on my bike yet. The problem I have with it is the case design. Getting the battery cover off is really hard and I worry I will break it. Getting the cover back on is easier, but it's easy to catch the flexible hinges in the cover when you close it, too. The multi-position switch is a massive pain. On and off is easy. However, getting the switch partway depressed to go into the "special" modes takes a careful touch and quite a bit of getting used to. Screwing with a temperamental device on a trail in the dark is not my idea of fun. They really need to rework the case on this.

Good hat

Backcountry.com Goat Organic Baseball Hat

Backcountry.com Goat Organic Baseball Hat

Rating for this product: 4 May 29, 2008

I have this in brown. It's a good looking hat, very comfortable, and I like that it's organic cotton. The only thing is that I'm a petite lady and this hat's a bit big on me. The strap does a fine job tightening the band, but because the hat itself is a little too big, once I get the strap tight enough the fabric above it poofs out. Wish they made this in a smaller size as an option.

Weird sizing

prAna Lacie Top - Long-Sleeve - Women's

prAna Lacie Top - Long-Sleeve - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 April 24, 2008

I usually wear a medium in prAna tops. I have the Lacie shirt in large and it's almost too tight in the sleeves. The crochet band under the bust is pretty tight, too. I wash it in cold and hang dry, and it was like this before I washed it. I also find the sleeves to be inconveniently long, but they are bell sleeves and are intended to be that way. It's a very pretty dressy/casual top, not an active one. Just don't plan to do any heavy work with your hands in it.

It has a loop. You need to buy your own carabiner, but you can use it to hook the loop to your clothes or gear.

CamelBak Omega HydroTanium Hydration Reservoir

April 16, 2008

The best way to keep it clean is to wash it with warm water and mild soap (like dish soap), then rinse it with clean water as soon as you are done using it. The Camelbak brushes are designed to fit the nooks and crannies of their reservoirs, but you can use a regular sponge if you need to. Either fill it up with clean water and toss it in the fridge or prop it open to dry. The Camelbak drying tool works really well and is worth the money. If you really don't want to invest in one, you can also stuff it loosely with newspaper until it's dry. If you don't, it WILL mildew. Use cleaning tablets or 1 tbsp bleach diluted with 1 liter of water about once a month if you use your reservoir regularly, or at least at the end of the season if you only use it once in a while.

Awesome pack!

CamelBak Magic Hydration Pack 2.1L - Women's

CamelBak Magic Hydration Pack 2.1L - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 April 16, 2008

I have the 2006 model of the Magic. It holds a surprising amount of stuff, in addition to plenty of water for a 3-5 hour ride. The big bite valve is the best thing to happen to mountain biking since the wheel. No dirt or other nasty stuff gets into your water supply. The pack is extremely comfortable and light. The various straps are all adjustable and it's easy to cinch it up so it doesn't budge even on really bumpy terrain. You can almost forget you're wearing it. The curved straps and shorter profile fit a woman's shape perfectly without binding, squishing tender parts, or creeping up your back to push into your helmet. This is one of the best pieces of equipment I've ever bought.

Definitely weird sizing

Mountain Hardwear Ventilator Sport Top - Women's

Mountain Hardwear Ventilator Sport Top - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 April 16, 2008

I usually find MH to run small. Not this top. I'm a 36B who could stand to lose some belly weight. The medium in this top was gigantic on me, not only all the way around but also in the straps. I usually buy tanks with adjustable straps because I'm only 5'3" and lots of tops are too long for me. I couldn't get this top's straps anywhere near short enough. They were out of smalls, so I couldn't exchange and just had to return it.

Lole sizing does it again

Lolë Practical Skort - Women's

Lolë Practical Skort - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 April 2, 2008

I love Lole. I really do. Their clothes are adorable and when they fit, they fit great. However, I find their sizing to be extremely inconsistent. I have a couple Lole skirts the same size as this skort. One skirt fits perfectly, the other is about a size too large and shimmies down my hips when I walk. This skort is probably being returned. It's so tight I can barely pull it up past my knees. It feels at least two sizes smaller than marked.

Cute, comfy skirt

Horny Toad Paige Skirt - Women's

Horny Toad Paige Skirt - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 April 2, 2008

This skirt is loose on me, and I probably could have ordered a size smaller. It's very comfortable and the thin corduroy is very soft. The skirt is a really flattering length and not so short you can't pick things up off the ground in it. There are green and white fabric panels at the sides that are not apparent in the photo. Unfortunately, I think they make it too casual to wear to work on Fridays, which is what I really bought it for.

great shirt

Backcountry.com Not Cotton T-Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 March 18, 2008

I guess maybe I fit the description of wide and short, but this shirt fits great. I'm 5'2" and usually take a 6-8 in tops, but I'm a 12-14 on the bottom. This shirt hits at the top of my hips, so my larger lower half doesn't really apply. I find the shirt to be very flattering and super soft and comfy. It's my new favorite workout shirt. Keeps sweat under control, too. And yeah, gotta love the Goat. More colors please!
