Snug Armpits - Size up

Stoic Merino Crew Shirt - Long-Sleeve - Men's

Stoic Merino Crew Shirt - Long-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 2 days ago

Great shirt, nice soft wool, appears to be constructed very well and the cut is nice. The sizing chart seems accurate enough, but if your chest is on the upper end of a size, I would recommend going up to the next size. I'm 6'3"and a very athletic 200lbs and I should have sized up to an XL. The large is a little snug under the armpits, not even really annoying, but just not perfect.

Perfect Casual Jacket

Backcountry.com Siphon Wool Hooded Jacket - Men's

Backcountry.com Siphon Wool Hooded Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 December 23, 2008

I purchased this jacket before it became known as the Siphon and it has quickly become one of my favorite jackets. The cut is extremely athletic (which is something not a lot of companies seem to get). I am 6'3" 195lbs and the Large is perfect. The sleeves are long (another bonus) and have a nice stretchy cuff on the inside of them to keep the cold out. It is very wind resistant, the outer shell is wool so yeah it might shed a little water or snow, but its definitely not the jacket to be wearing when there is a lot of it coming down.

Better than the competition

Nathan  HPL #020 Race Vest

Nathan HPL #020 Race Vest

Rating for this product: 5 November 7, 2008

Purchased this for trail runs and races after realizing that I didn't need to have 100oz of water contained in a very heavy and hot camelbak. Go to any Ultra and you will see mostly Nathan packs for a good reason. Rides higher and doesn't bounce at all when snugged up. Doesn't restrict movement or breathing and has plenty of easy accessible storage on the front for gels and salt capsules. The shoulder straps are a very thin material with a comfortable/soft brushed texture towards your skin. They seem fragile to me, but I haven't experienced any problems with them after a lot of miles.

Like the previous reviewer said, these glasses are much smaller than they look in the picture. Would probably work well for someone with a smaller face or a girl.

Great Trail Shorts

Salomon Trail Comp Short - Men's

Salomon Trail Comp Short - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 June 24, 2008

These are some pretty nice trail shorts. Very comfortable, quick drying, but a little noisy at times. The zippered pocket is also nice. The fit is much better than most running shorts since they don't balloon out just below the elastic waistband.

Nice Shirt - Not my style

Salomon Trail Runner Zip Tech T-Shirt - Men's

Salomon Trail Runner Zip Tech T-Shirt - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 June 24, 2008

Nice shirt, but just not my style in red. Looks too much like a cycling jersey in my opinion. Never the less, it fits well and performs well. Slim but not tight fit.

Amazing, Size Up

MontBell Ultralight Down Jacket - Men's

MontBell Ultralight Down Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 May 19, 2008

Great jacket, the Paprika(Red) minimizes the trashbag look. It is unbelievably lightweight, packs down to nothing and I still have a hard time believing it keeps you as warm as it does.

However: I am a size Large in TNF, and had to exchange for a XL in this jacket because it was too small around the chest/back/armpits if you did anything but stand up straight.

Fits Great

The North Face TKA 200 Altitude Full Zip Jacket - Men's

The North Face TKA 200 Altitude Full Zip Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 April 18, 2008

Very nice jacket. Size Large in Anchorage Green fits me great (6'3" 185 with a long torso). Very athletic cut which is nice. The little snaps on the cuff are kind of annoying, but not a huge issue and could be easily cut off if necessary. I assume that they are for when you zip it into a shell.
