These gloves are great, I have small hands and they are true to size. The reflective material is not overwhelming either. They are not long on the wrist though so I'll have to where coat with elastic band cuffs to keep my wrists warm in the cold.

Super warm tights. I am always concerned about movement in lined tights but these are perfect for my cold weather urban hiking! I've been out for walks in 45 degree weather and hardly felt the cold at all. I suspect my light-weight wind pants will be needed in the blizzard winds we sometimes get in New England but they should pair nicely with these.

It's always a toss up between Ex Officio, Columbia, and The North Face for me. I ordered this Columbia shirt in lemon meringue (love the color btw) and I was not disappointed. The shirt is true to size and comfortable with no itchy seams.

I ordered these for my husband to wear on our urban hikes during the cold New England weather rather than his bulky/knit snow-shoveling gloves. They are sleek, love the rubber grip on the palm. He has relatively small hands but the fingers are a little tight so we're hoping they stretch a little.

This shirt has style for a wicking shirt. Great in cooler, Spring hikes as a second layer or as a base layer in the colder months.

These are my first pair of Teva's and Teva is now on my shortlist for gear. So comfortable and stylish. I was apprehensive of the color at first, bought the black/white but they turned out to be very nice indeed. They actually look gray from a distance.

Absolutely don't miss the laces and having to stop to re-tie! They are heavier than I am used to and they seem longer, found myself tripping over the toe for the first week. Didn't take long to get used to them though.

The exact boot I bought (ULU Crow) last month is not longer available but I had to write a review and these are very similar boots. I couldn't wait until the weather turned colder to wear these. They are comfortable, cute and most importantly WARM!

Very warm, very comfortable, my Winter shoe of choice for everything but shoveling and hiking.

This is the Spring, Summer, Fall equivalent of the Encore Chill for me. I wear these everyday for everything but hiking.
Merrell has a great weight distribution in the soles for women's shoes that compensate for our wider hips, ie your ankles and knees won't roll in and get sore on long shopping sprees or hiking trips. Most importantly, your feet don't hurt one bit!

I travel often and these are the perfect underwear for running around the airport and walking a new city for hours. Love the material, the seams don't rub you raw and the boy cut don't wedge up. The coral color is more red than coral...I was a bit surprised at the vibrant color compared to my white and black ones but I still like them.

I wear Injinji toe socks when running, hiking and walking long distances/duration over any other sock. They offer blister freedom and better balance. The benefits and comfort far outweigh the annoyance of putting them on : )

I bought two pair at the beginning of the year. I travel so often and I'm all about comfort (why do some women wear high heels through the airport?), these are my "special airplane panties" as they don't wedge up, wick away moisture as I'm running from terminal to terminal and they are easy to clean/dry fast in the hotel room. Buy them, buy lots of them!

Besides making my husband laugh when I say the name, Injinji is genius. Their toe socks are fabulous. I have small feet, size 6, and find my toes are so small they get squished together too easily. These socks not only prevent pesky blister in even the best shoes whether jogging or power walking. Pay attention to the type though, performance socks should be worn for performance...if you're looking for socks to knock around the house get the comfort or outdoor crew types also by Injinji. The performance socks are thinner and will wear out eventually so don't waste them dancing around the kitchen.

Love, love, love these capris. Ordering another pair. Not the best for warm weather but oh so comfy for yoga and just lounging around. Will be nice in the fall/winter.
