Arc'teryx Tactician Short - Men's

Arc'teryx Tactician Short - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 August 21, 2009

I purchased these shorts one month ago, and have worn them every day since (well almost every day). They are by far the most comfortable shorts I own. Loose fit, catering to very well to rock climbers which was also the primary reason I purchased them. After I realized how awesome these shorts were, I go home and put them on every day after work...it's now a routine.

The Essential

Black Diamond ATC Belay Device

Black Diamond ATC Belay Device

Rating for this product: 3 August 6, 2009

This belay device does its job...saves lives when it needs to. I typically use PTZ0143 (grigri) but this piece is my default on longer routes. Great/lightweight piece. I'm alive to climb another day.

Arc'teryx C80 Chalk Bag

Arc'teryx C80 Chalk Bag

Rating for this product: 5 August 6, 2009

I have big hands. I needed a big chalk bag. I am 100% confident that this was the best decision I could have made. The belt was included, the bag provides a large opening and can hold a ridiculous amount of chalk. Not sure what else I can say, oh yea the gold isn't as ugly as it looks on the site, it's actually an awesome color. The best chalk bag I've ever owned.

Black Diamond Nylon Daisy Chain - 18mm

Black Diamond Nylon Daisy Chain - 18mm

Rating for this product: 5 August 6, 2009

Not sure what else you need. It's a daisy chain in its simplest form. This won't fail...the only way this daisy will "fail" is by human error...which is also the only way anyone would not feel safe.

Kaenon Burny Sunglasses - Polarized

Kaenon Burny Sunglasses - Polarized

Rating for this product: 5 June 8, 2009

These are the most comfortable shades I've ever worn. Expensive, yes. Worth it, yes. Would I do it again, yes. I have also dropped the glasses numerous times without a single scratch on the lens. picture perfect viewing out of these specs, I absolutely love them. * I have to add this...climbing last week I took these shades off, put them on my sling, and dropped them 150 feet...when I lowered off the route I could not believe my eyes. They were in perfect shape, not a scratch on either glass lens. Priceless.

Rating for this product: 5 July 7, 2008

Good bag. I bought this bag as a gift and it has served its' purpose extremely well. She uses this bag for work, school, on her bike, and cruising around. Also uses this bag on day hikes, so it does not create specific sweating points which can be super annoying. All in all, great bag!

this shoe is comfortable, stable in rocky terrain, and looks sweet. great shoe. the fit is a big large...i wear a 13 regularly, and this shoe is a bit loose. maybe that was the intended idea to make it more comfortable...

this jacket is so much better looking in person than it is on the site. you can wear it anywhere, and you will always look solid. the fit is athletic, so it makes you look and feel like you are in shape...whether you are or you are not. whoever thought, a wool hoody, check out the innovation. i love it.

these skis are ready to rumble. they are burly to say the least. these xxl's want to go fast, really fast, so fast it's scary, and that is the best part. everyone should try these once, you'll fall in love just like the rest of us.
