The cloudwalker is a great pack for day hikes, around town use, even ultralight overnighters. The quality of the materials and stitching is top notch. Just what I have come to expect from camelbak. The zippered pocket in the front has a nice little organizer and the main pocket is surprisingly roomy for such a small pack. It has a flexible back panel that offer a little support, but if you stuff it the pack will deform and will no longer sit flat on your back. The 'frame sheet' is flexible enough that you can actually fold the pack in half to pack it. It is comfortable for me at a weight of around 15 lbs total. This pack has been dropped, thrown, folded and smashed, dragged, filled to the brim with geodes, and submerged, and is still no worse for wear other than a little tear on the mesh bottle pocket.
I really only have one complaint about the cloudwalker. The new generation (pictured here in black. The blue one in the detail view is a different generation) doesn't have a waistbelt. If it had one, I would give it 5 stars for versatility and value because at $60 you are buying a $25 bladder and a nice pack for $35.

This shirt is decent quality at a reasonable price. I am 6' 170 lbs and have a medium. It is a little short in the arms for me, and a bit tight across the chest but the large was far to baggy in the stomach. It is a more casual cut for sure. The material seems pretty good quality. I have used it with a pack and do not see any pilling on the surface. If you are looking for a shirt that can be worn skiing and around town, it is pretty good. Oh, and like others said, the logo is the same as the body color on mine (black). 4 stars because it doesn't quite fit my freakishly long 78" wingspan.

It's cheap. It's light. It's tough. What more could you want? Holds up well to heat, will not stain (mine is blue) or keep any taste. Unfortunately I lost mine at the bottom of a valley in Big South Fork. If anyone finds it and packs it out, I owe them a beer.

These are great socks. Period. Okay, I was unsure about spending $20 on a single pair of socks, but it is possibly the best $20 I have ever spent. The tight knit on the top keeps the socks in place, and saves room for the padding where you need it in the bottom. Multi-day hike foot pain is now all but gone. Buy some and your feet will thank you.

It's a stuff sack. They are pretty darn water resistant. The handle on the back is a nice touch, but I have torn one where it attaches. Personally I like the granite gear cordura ones a little better.

For all of it's flaws, I still love this pack for the simple reason that it is tough as nails. I bought one as my first backpacking pack and it saw many miles. It has a lot of organization to it with several pockets, nice compression straps, and gear loops sewn on the bottom (at least my generation did). Plus I LOVE the Schaefer cinch on the waist belt. Unfortunately the biggest problem with this pack is the waist belt. There is just not enough padding on it to carry weight comfortably. I moved to a Gregory as my multi-day pack, but still use this all the time for air travel, trail work, car camping, 4x4 trips, etc, etc... If I had to define the redwing, I'd call it a work/utility pack with a little bit of trail blood mixed in. Hats off to Kelty for workhorse of a pack with top notch quality for a very reasonable price.

Yes they cost a lot. Yes they are trendy. Yes they dent. Most important they are good quality. I have had juice and tea in it and have no residual taste. My nalgene cannot do that. A lot of people hate them for being trendy, but contrary to what some of them say they are lighter than a nalgene (not that it matters). Also aluminum DOES NOT rust when it is dented. Don't know where that one came from. I have also heard concerns about how aluminum can leech dangerous chemicals into water. That is why sigg coats the inside of the bottles with a completely inert polymer.
Anyway, one of my favorite things about it is now that I spent that money on a nice bottle, I want to use it. All the time. I drink more water, less soft drinks, and waste far less bottles and cans. Dare I say this bottle has saved me money. Whether or not they are in vougue in the future, I hope sigg keeps making the best quality bottles money can buy.

A nice form fitting base layer. It is a little long in the waist for my taste, but that may be good for others. Lightweight and offers good warmth for it's weight. It also moves and breathes very well. Mountain hardwear says that it can be worn alone on cool days. It can ONLY be worn alone if you do not have a pack. I went on an 8 mile trail run with a camelback classic with maybe 50 oz of water in it. After the run there was bad pilling on the shoulders and across the chest where the straps were. Very disappointing. The function of the shirt is great (extremely good wicking thanks to the polartech material), but it's not as versatile as I had hoped. The North face Matrix is still my go-to shirt for multipurpose use. If only the matrix came in a half zip with a collar.

It is still young (2 months), but here's a short term review. I mainly use the synchro backpacking, mountain biking, and occasionally around town. The shell is exceptionally water resistant while remaining very soft. So far I do not see any damage from pack wear or rock rubs, but it is too early to tell. I have very long arms, and the large does fit them pretty well. There is a lot of extra room for layering. I can easily fit a fleece and down vest under it. It is not a wind proof layer, but is good enough to stop anything but the most violent winds. Cinch cords around the waist and neck are very effective at keeping out the wind and rain/snow. The main pockets open with waterproof zips to reveal enormous vent pockets that reach from the bottom to the front seam. The pockets are very high to allow for clearance of your pack's waistbelt, which is a little awkward if you wear it casually. If you are looking for a casual jacket, check out the g50. It is built from the same materials, but cut a little longer, a little trimmer, and with the pockets in a more comfortable position.

This is a review for the old style with the full length pole sleeves

I paid full retail on this tent, and it has proven well worthy of that price. I have used it on riding and backpacking trips and it has performed very well for such a low price point. The large dual vestibules are roomy and very convenient for gear storage and removing wet and muddy clothing. The large mesh panels are nice for the clear summer nights, and there is a good amount of room for 2 people. The place where this tent really shines is in the windy stuff. with the tent floor, both vestibules, and all four guy lines staked down, this tent is really bulletproof.

The major weakness of this tent (other than it is a touch heavy) is the ventilation. On still, humid nights, condensation will form on the inside of the fly. Staking the vestibules out a little further and higher will help a little with this problem.

All in all, I am very pleased with this tent and would highly recommend it.
