These are great shoes for everyday running. They are made for mild pronation, so not a true stability shoe, but do offer some extra support. The rubber on the sole is very strong. I put 1,000 miles on the previous version of this shoe, the Guide 3. Highly recommended!

I'm a huge fan of the Saucony line and these shoes are another reason why. They are a super light, neutral shoe, but give enough cushion that you won't get totally battered running longer distances on the pavement in them. What really makes it a great shoe isn't just the lightwieght, but how it's made. The cushion is evenly distributed from the heel to the forefoot giving you a more 'natural' stride. A lot of trainers bulk up the heel cushion which is argued to promote heel striking. So, while these are not a typical minimalist shoe, they will promote more of a mid to forefoot stride with the cushion of a trainer, minus the weight.

Super soft and warm. Great price for a great product.

I got these for really cold hikes and tours thru the snow. My dog Griffin, he's a 40 pound Brittany, doesn't really care for them, but once he gets goin he doesn't even notice they're on. They work well keeping snow from building up between his pads and keeping his feet warm on really cold days. He did lose one in deeper snow, but that was kinda my fault. Now I just check them every 20 minutes or so and readjust if necessary. I'll use them this summer too for long days on the trail.

I wanted a pair of pants I could wear my shorts under so I can warm up outside, then take them off for my workout. And these are perfect! I've worn them in temps from about 35 to 15 degrees and they work like a champ. I've taken them on an hour run as well to see how they'd hold up, and they worked great. The fit is true to size...not too snug and doesn't feel like you're wearing a parachute. The fabric is a little stretchy for good range of motion and they wick moisture very well. Two thumbs up in my book, but what else would you expect from TNF!

No leaks so far, and does a pretty decent job insulating hot liquids.

This shirt is super light, so would be nice in warm conditions. The problem is the stitching on the shoulders is too short, so when I'm running it tugs on the collar during my arm swing. I thought about getting a larger size, but it fits kind of baggy and I didn't want it to feel huge. I returned it for another shirt.

I bought these for my fiancee' because she was having some knee issues. They needed a few runs to break them in (the support wraps are no joke!), but after that she loves them. She wore them during a half marathon in 55 degree temps and they worked like a champ!

These socks are cushioned really well, and have venting on the top so you can still wear them in warmer weather. A 3-pack for this price is a super good deal!

I bought this for my fiancee' and she LOVES it! We live at 7,000 ft, so winters around town can get brutally cold, but this coat keeps her warm and it looks great! One of the reasons I chose this coat over other downs is the outer material. Most puffies have a pretty delicate exterior, so one snag and you're screwed. Not this coat! The outside is tuff, so it can take all the abuse a late night on the town can throw at you. The furry hood helps with snowy conditions as well.

Clif bar markets these to women mainly because of the boost in folate and calcium, which I've heard women need more of, and they are about 70 calories less than the OG Clif bar. But don't let this fool you. They are a super nutritious snack for everyone and taste great! The OG Clif can feel kinda heavy when I'm just sitting around and want something to munch, but the Luna bar digests really easy. I like to eat one about an or so before I leave work to go for a run.

These shoes are really made for overpronators and/or bigger runners. They breathe well and the first hundred miles or so were great. A smooth ride on and off the trail. After that they became super flexible and the cushioning got all squishy. I probably won't go with Pearl Izumi's again.

My girlfriend doesn't like the cut on mummy bags, so I got this for her and she loves it. She can toss and turn all she wants with no restrictions. It's been great for our spring and fall camping ventures.

They feel pretty comfortable, but the strategic placement of material is a kinda overkill. Also felt a little slippery in my shoes too, which I think is from all of the different fabrics. They do breathe super well, and they're ugly as sin which I like since your socks get trashed on the trails anyway.

This singlet is stupid light! I really like how simple the design is too. A lot of shirts have different fabrics sewn together which can cause chaffing and is pretty much unnecessary. The only issue I had was with the white color. It looked like I had just competed in a wet t-shirt contest! Overall, an awesome pick for hot race days.

This shirt is super soft and fits great. It's a good chiller tee and also works great if you want to get busy in it. I went for a 5 hour hike and it did a good job breathing and wicking moisture for a "non cotton" tee.

I bought these for my girlfriend thinking the concept was unique. The material is soft, but are a little thick for her taste, and the last 2 toes on the sock are a little longer than her toes, so is feels "a little weird" running in them. She uses them as her back up pair when it's laundry day.

Bought these for my girlfriend and she's all about it! The briefs underneath are super comfy and do a great job of wicking moisture so there's no chaffing goin on. Pearl Izumi did a great job with the stitching to prevent them from riding up too. They looks pretty rad as well.

I bought this for my girlfriend and it's the best sports bra she's ever owned. It really contours to her chest, instead of just mashing her puppies down. The ventilation on the bottom is tops for keepin it cool when she's out on her long runs. The superlight material makes it feel like she's wearing nothing at all!

I bought these for my girlfriend and she loves them! They lock her heel into place which makes her feel stable on uneven and rocky trails. The toe guard is huge which is key for bashing thru trail debris. Her only complaint was the cushioning, but they are still good for runs under an hour. She also did a 5 hour hike in them and had no issues.

Fits good and looks great with that logo. Long live the goat!

This beanie has a tight nit to help with wind protection and the fabric is really soft. I have kind of a smaller head, so I think it's a little too big for me, but it covers my ears well and keeps my winter do under control. Great around towner!

I bought this version over the low ankle Lite Mini so I can tuck them into the bottom of my leggings on cold runs which helps keep my ankles from freezing. They socks are warm, yet breathe super good! Two thumbs way up!

These are the smoothest feeling shorts I have ever ran in. The liner is tops, and the 2 back pockets are big enough to throw a few gels in for some of your longer runs. They're pretty short which is awesome for maximum range of motion, but you'd better not be bashful about showing off some skin!

The fabric his shirt is made out of is excellent. It wicks sweat really good and has a nice feel next to your skin. The seams have a weird position in the back, but that could just be for me. Also, I got the small and it is super long! I think this shirt would be good someone who is really tall and skinny.

Warm and breathable. These rock for pretty much any cold weather outdoor adventure you got goin on. I especially like the long wrist cuffs to help keep heat in.

I bought a map for the San Rafael Swell and it worked awesome for planning some day hikes from our camp site. It also didn't fall apart after I spilled beer all over it!

I bought this bag for a trip to my brother's wedding. I went for 7-days and was able to pack all my clothes, and several pairs of shoes, along with the suit I was going to wear! It looks kinda small at first, but it doesn't have fully structured walls like a regular suitcase which makes it possible to ram cram tons of stuff! It isn't super stable when you try to stand it up, but it's worth a tiny flaw for such huge storage capacity!

I'm a pretty small dude(5'7" and 130 lbs.) and the small fits like a glove! It works awesome as a mid- ,or outer-layer, and I've gotten tons of compliments about the look. It is definitely fitted for some good ol' next-to-your-skin warmth. No drafts gettin in there! I gave 4 out of 5 for the price.

This hat is instant snugly warmth when you put it on! I got the green which is a little lighter color than I thought it would be, but I'm still super happy during cold nights out on the town.

I bought this pullover for my winter outside runs, and it is awesome!(I live @ 6500') With the right base layer, I have gone out in 0 degree temps and felt great. The arms seem to be a little long, but I think it helps keep heat in when it's really cold. If you want a windproof, waterproof, and breathable outer layer....look no further!

I bought this watch about 2 years ago to keep track of my runs, and it works super good. I have ran with it all over the US: Northern and Southern Utah, Florida, Massachusetts, Colorado, and California, and have never had a problem with getting reception. It doesn't really work that well indoors, but you can still track your splits. There are a bunch of functions for speed, distance, elevation, and route finding. The only big difference between this model and the 305 is the heart rate monitor and $100. This is the only GPS I've used, but I have no desire to shop around.

I eat gels on my long runs, and have tried all different kinds. I bought these because they were a good deal, and I'm not to loyal to any brand in particular. Once I got them, I noticed the sodium and sugar count is much lower than other gels I've used, and I could feel the difference on my runs. I didn't get the boost like other brands gave me. That being said, I do like that they have a ton of A, C, and E vitamins for a gel. Now I take one immediately after my runs to help the recovery process.
