I've had this jacket for a while now, and it's pretty good. I don't know why someone would give it one star for an incorrectly-labeled description, but whatever. I used it about a month ago in Zion during a rainy backpacking trip. While it doesn't shed water like a duck, it worked OK. It rained constantly (and pretty hard) for about 4-5 hours. By the time we had reached our campsite, the fabric had soaked through and my shirt and skin was damp, but it was much, much better than no jacket. I like this jacket, and it will keep you pretty dry in backcountry excursions and completely dry in quick urban adventures, but I will soon trade up to Gore-Tex.

I've had these gloves for about 4 winters now, and I've used them hard. While this is my first season of 100+ ski days, I've used them shoveling, snowballing, and skiing quite a few times, but they still look and work like they did right out of the box. They take a couple weeks to truly break in, but once you have broken them in, you'll never want to take them off. I've used them this winter up at Brighton in -10° temperatures and my hands didn't get cold AT ALL. This weekend, I used them in 45° temps on a backcountry trip and my hands didn't sweat AT ALL. These gloves are literally unbeatable; if they ever wear out (which I don't think will happen anytime soon), I will not hesitate to buy another pair.

If you couldn't tell from the title, I love my Micks. I literally wore these sandals every day of the year-snow, rain, shine, pre climb/ski/bike, or party. They don't take long to break in, but once they've molded to your feet (which takes a little longer), these are literally the most comfortable shoes you'll ever own-they feel like gloves. The leather not only looks cool, but it feels great and the exterior/interior holds up pretty decently. While it gets dirty, the bottle opener is helpful at times and a great conversation starter all the time. My one gripe is the craftsmanship. While I won't call them poor made or shoddy, I was hoping they would last a little longer than they did. I probably got about 375 complete days out of them before the toe "thong" started to come up, a common Reef problem (I've detailed it in the picture). I would totally buy another pair (but only when I can afford two pairs of sandals)-when Reef fixes their toe problem (I've experienced it with 3 other types of reef sandals), I'll come straight back and be a customer for life. But for now, I'm paying more for Chacos so I don't need to buy new pairs yearly.

I took this on a weekend trip to Zion...I knew it was going to be wet so I wanted to get something to keep my bag dry. We were backpacking in the rain for a solid 12 hours, and my bag (and clothes I managed to squeeze in there) came out ddrryyy. Granted, my pack was covered with a trash bag and stuff outside the sack only got damp, but it served it's purpose. Also, all my buddies who were pulling out their gear stuffed in plastic bags were jealous-it looks badass. I'd recommend it.

Aight I give it 5 stars. This knife is SOLID...I've owned Kershaw, Gerber and Kabar and this knife is my go to knife for anything outside, inside or urban. The assisted opening is damn fast and smoother than Cosmo Kramer, and I think I read that the lock mechanism can withstand about 1000 lbs of pressure. Regardless, its strong. The blade is real sharp and holds an edge well...it's the sharpest, out of the box, out of any of my knives. At first I was a little angry about the clip-it bends easy and looked hard to fix. However, I didn't take enough time to actually see that the clip can be removed by loosening one screw using a 1mm hex wrench. It's very easy to take the clip off and hammer it back to being straight, but easier if the clip doesn't bend at all. So try not to let the clip catch on things.

While I can't attest to how this jacket does in the rain, I can address several concerns with this jacket. There are quite a few reviews that say "this jacket will rip if if brushes against a twig," or "not very tough at all." I don't know what these people are talking about. First time I wore the jacket out, I wore it as a windbreaker for a ride. I stumbled on a jump trail, and hit it too hard. The third jump, I didn't get my front wheel high enough, so I endo'ed into the landing zone. I landed on my right shoulder and rolled about 3 times down the jump. While my shoulder is tore up pretty good, there isn't even a nick on my jacket. And it definitely should have torn. So while I can't address how the Epic does in the rain, I can tell you that this is one tough jacket...I love it.

Let me start by saying...
I LOVE these pants. They are comfortable, they make my ass look great, I don't really need to wash them, and they're exactly what I was looking for. A tough, rugged, stylish pant that I could walk out of school and into the backcountry in. However, there are several key problems with these pants that need to be addressed, and that force me to give these pants a three star rating. I have had the pants for about a month now, but already there is a tear right under one of the belt loops. I could not have torn them myself in this allotted time, the simple wear of putting a belt into the loops has frayed and created a hole. While not a big hole, and not at all a problem, I am afraid that it will grow. Also, as several other reviews have pointed out, the waist runs pretty small. I would get about 2 sizes (30 x 30 to a 32 x 30) larger.
Overall, these pants are disappointing, but they have a lot of potential. I have heard that MK has problems with its quality control, so these problems may be isolated to my pair of pants. I would buy these pants (like I said, I love these pants even with the problems and they have amazing potential), but be prepared to send them back.

The Rowan is a nice, well crafted/designed shoe. I've used it for some light hikes, and just as my normal day-to-day shoe. Its comfortable, holds up well and looks great for basically any occasion. I've even done some freeride in them (not recommended).

I have had the shoe for about 3 months and have worn it basically every day. It keeps the snow and water out very well and does not scuff up at all. My only complaint is, being used to slip on shoes, these comparably take a long time to put on...great shoe. Buy it

Ive had this shoe for about 5 and a half months now and I really like it. It feels great, holds up well and makes me feel a little greener every time I put it on. Hate to say it but I havent exactly been kind to the shoe and have worn it in some rough situations. It still is as solid as when it came out of the box. It is real comfy to. Only two gripes...it gets a little slippy when wet and it has started to warp occasionally. Nothing major, just a little curl upwards in the toe and heal. Not sure whether its the sun, water, or something else but it still works. I really like this shoe

This BBB (Bloody Brilliant Belt) is exactly that. Its simple, just some webbing and a clamp on belt buckle but it works great and looks good. Keeps me old pants up well too, which I see as a bonus. And don't even get me started on the church key I love it and have used it to open a brewski or two in its day. Buy this belt its worth it.

I've used these gloves in Colorado on a snowy day at -10 degrees. I was skiing all day and my hands did not get cold in any way, shape, OR FORM!! They have held up relatively well (I have had them for the past 2 years), and they both look and perform as well as the first few days Ive used them. Break in is short to nada, and the leather feels like a baby's bottom. My only gripe is the inside of the fingers is close to being cut through because I was dumb and held my skis on my shoulder...so the edges cut the outsides. But they are great good investment.

Good backpack. Tough, rugged and have had no problems whatsoever even after 4 consecutive years of hauling high school and college level books to school every day. Climbed my first 14teener using this pack, as well as for biking, skiing (before getting the Dakine blade), climbing and airsoft. nice pack

These are some pretty nice shoes VERY COMFORTABLE. They keep out the snow pretty well also which is a bonus and its easy to slip them on. Make sure you get a half size small, they are a little big on my feet. Also dont wear them on a rock wall it rips up the sides really well. But I am glad that I have them, so you should get them also.

Aight the chicks at my school love it. That's the biggest thing. Also, whenever I go out wearing it, its very rare not to hear a "Sexy hat" or "nice hat" ect. The guy at chipotle gave me a free burrito cause he liked the hat so much. Now to its performance. Ive used it in about -10 degree weather at winter park in CO. My head was hot. get this hat.

Id reccomend this to anyone for anything. Ive taken it skiing (both backcountry and resort), hiking, biking and airsofting. and to my job. Theres enought space to hold anything ya want. Also its made out of really strong fabric. get this over any other pack
