Good Shoe

Reef Machado Classic Sandals - Men's

Reef Machado Classic Sandals - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 June 29, 2009

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

Bloody Brilliant Belt

DAKINE Rail Belt

DAKINE Rail Belt

Rating for this product: 5 June 29, 2009

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.

Rating for this product: 4 March 16, 2009

Love this helmet. It works too. i took it off of a 15 footer and hit my head on a tree branch immediately after landing. Didnt get a concussion. Whats more, it looks f****n bad ass. only gripe is lack of ventilation but it works in the arctic id guess.

DAKINE Apollo Glove

DAKINE Apollo Glove

Rating for this product: 5 February 20, 2009

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.

Rating for this product: 5 February 20, 2009

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

DAKINE Apollo Glove

February 18, 2009

I am not a soldier, but I feel that it would not work for most guns. If you are using the M4 (the only gun I am aware of that has the flip down trigger guard), then it would work. However, the trigger guard on most guns will prevent the user from getting the finger on the trigger quickly, firing several shots quickly, and taking it away quickly. It is just too bulky to fit. Hope this helps!!

Decently nice shoes

Reef Shuffler Slip On Shoe - Men's

Reef Shuffler Slip On Shoe - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 February 13, 2009

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.

Rating for this product: 5 January 7, 2009

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.
