Buy this big one instead of five littles

BPA came. And now it's gome. And it's easier than ever to "go green" by refilling this baby instead of buying bottled water. I keep filled ones in my car, gym bag and office desk. Stay hydrated, BPA-free, and save cash on the disposable bottles.

Love how the hood rolls into the collar!

Classic rain jacket! Love it! I'm 5'4", 140lbs and I have a feeling I should have ordered a medium instead of large. It's roomy, but great for layering. My favorite part: The hood can be smoothly rolled into the collar! I'm not a fan of hooded jackets either, but head coverage does come in handy during sudden downpours. Good buy.

It's a softshell. And that's it.

Rating for this product: 4 May 25, 2009

Bought the New Taupe Green. It's a bit more olive than pictured. Because I didn't know previously - the APEX Aerobic fabric this is made out of is similar to a light (and I mean thin) running windbreaker jacket. Good for light wear (no rain, wind or snow). The description is accurate - a definite lightweight piece ideal for spring outdoor activities.

Rating for this product: 4 March 2, 2009

These boots are great for the beginner, but unfortunately I had to return them because my street shoe size (7.5) needed an 8 in these. The gray is more of a soft white too.

Perfect for a one-week hike through Peru!

Understand that this was my first adventure backpacking (I'm a bit of a wimp), and I must say - this pack is awesome! I love how it had a really long, heavy-duty zipper down the middle instead of just across, making packing and unpacking easy. Fully adjustable for short or tall women, and has extra padding in all the right places! Thanks Kelty!

You don't even need to break them in!

KEEN Targhee ll Hiking Shoe - Women's

KEEN Targhee ll Hiking Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 February 7, 2008

I had room for only two pairs of shoes - and that's all I needed. Keen sandals plus these babies. Airport to bus to train to trail - they were the most comfortable shoe/boot ever! I didn't have time to break them in, so even though I chanced it - the outcome was favorable. Light for a boot. They fit a bit wide and size a little small (so order 1/2 up, as noted in other reviews), but I would highly recommend them.
