Pretty good

CW-X Pro Tights - Men's

CW-X Pro Tights - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 January 1, 2012

I've only run twice in these in North Texas winter. They felt very breathable, meaning not warm in cold weather. That's fine as they will be good for compression and support come summer. I've never had a pair of tights prior to these, but they feel well-made. They compressed and supported in a comfortable way.

I love wool socks

SmartWool Hiking Light Crew Sock

SmartWool Hiking Light Crew Sock

Rating for this product: 5 December 27, 2010

These smart wool have good craftsmanship. They maintain their form and fit well; not too tight. I like to hike all over the place and these seem to do just fine in hot weather and keep feet snug in cold weather.

So far so good

X-Socks Silver Day Sinofit Sock

Rating for this product: 5 December 27, 2010

I've only worn these a fist full of times and so far they are very comfortable and extremely breathable. Upon visual inspection they look like they have high-quality craftsmanship. Wearing gives the same impression. My only question is whether they can last a reasonable amount of time. I'm optimistic.

Ace in the hole

ExOfficio Give-N-Go Brief - Men's

ExOfficio Give-N-Go Brief - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 December 27, 2010

Due to price I've been slowly accumulating ExOfficio underwear ...I have the sport, the give n go brief, and the boxer brief. All fit fantastically and all live up to the hype. the give-n-go brief is probably my favorite of the three I mentioned.The sport is a little more minimalistic in its coverage so some might feel it can get a little tight up front. The boxer brief obviously has more coverage and I don't want that much all the time. The give n go brief splits the difference leaving you with an all-the-time fit and feel.You might find yourself asking "can I get a discount if I buy in bulk?"

Patagonia Footwear Ranger Smith Waterproof Mid Shoe - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 November 26, 2010

Love the boot. I use it in a casual environment. I haven't taken it hiking yet. Not a fan of the inserts, but not a big deal because I use custom orthotics which fit nicely by-the-way. The quality is worth the price. Saw these boots a little cheaper elsewhere, but backcountry service is worth the extra.

Good stuff

Rating for this product: 5 December 23, 2009

These undies are light and cool. Great for exercise. They maintain their fit which is always a big deal with boxer briefs. I wear a large and I own the briefs as well. The boxer briefs have more room up front than the briefs.

Great experiences

Rating for this product: 5 November 23, 2009

I've taken this baby for a spin in a number of Texas state parks in good weather conditions. The tent is well-made, easy to pack, and easy to build. I invited a married couple along on one trip and they brought along a blow-up mattress. I slept on a foam pad. We all fit, including my dog. Plenty of room.

No regrets

Arc'teryx Delta SV Glove - Unisex

Arc'teryx Delta SV Glove - Unisex

Rating for this product: 5 September 16, 2008

I bought these to keep my hands warm in northwest Montana. They did the job, and because they fit well they didn't get in the way. I thing these would combo well with some ski gloves, too. Like the reviewer below says, there's no special grip material, so care should be taken when using while driving.

Patagonia Wool 2 Crew - Long-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 September 16, 2008

This is a very lightweight comfortable shirt. I like it for layering and even by itself. I wouldn't mind buying another one. I haven't hand any problems with durability, but it seems like it could get snagged and damaged easily.

Useful headlamp.

Black Diamond Cosmo Headlamp

Black Diamond Cosmo Headlamp

Rating for this product: 4 September 16, 2008

This lamps generates a good amount of light for the weight and size. I used it on a recent camping trip and it was very handy. I needed it to help find my way back to camp for the final three miles of a trail and I was pleased with its performance. It is nice around the house, too. This was my first headlamp.
