The North Face Nuptse Down Vest - Women's

February 20, 2009

I tried on similar vests from other brands but overall I kept running into the same problem - The shoulders were not hitting in the right spot or the waist was too short. (I understand that there are no shoulders because its a vest)

As you can see in the photo there is no weird sags under the arm and it does hit in the perfect spot on the shoulder.

FYI : I am 5'4" and 115 and this is the xs. Please understand that this vest is down, no down jacket will show off your figure.

I have had 4 of these googles. That is truly how much I love this style and feel of this goggle. The reason why I have gone through so many was because of color and I kept on scratching the lenses. NOTE: Never ever wipe the inside of the googles, even with the bag provided. I have noticed that this scratches the inside of the lens. you will have a bad day if you do this.

Pictured here are the white frame with the blue iridium lenses. I feel as though this is the best priced all around mountain lens. Not too dark and not bad on an overcast day. I hate changing lenses.

Also if you have a small frame face like me consider looking into oakley asian fit or womens specific goggles like the stockholm.

Tecnica Viva Crossfire 100 Boot - Women's

January 19, 2012

First, I come from a similar background and also have a narrow ankle. Second, you need to realize that no boot will fit like a glove out of the box especially one like this that is meant to be used touring & also in bounds. Whats great about Tecnica is that they make a variety of volume shell sizes to accommodate a broad spectrum of athlete needs. Bad news is that because boots are designed with this in mind so are the liners. I always end up taking my boot in after a few times out to get tweaked at a local shop. Third, not knowing much more than you have a narrow ankle I can't really tell you weather or not this is the perfect boot for you. But I can boast about how awesome it is:

This shell in particular is a low volume shell which means it will be more snug around the toe box (bad for wide feet). The liner is a little better than some of the others out there because it can be heat moldable. It has a solid 100 flex which will make you happy when slaying pow or ripping a groomer or two. Also It has replaceable soles, so if you want to tour with these, it can be done. The best part about these interchangeable soles is that these boots are so easy to convert back and forth. This boot can be your all in one boot, no more buying specific touring boots or alpine boots!

if any of this makes no sense, check out our gear wiki!
http://www.backcountry.com/womens-ski-boots/gearwiki/7

Also with all of this said - there is no harm in buying a boot & getting it tuned up at your trusted boot fitter. The most important decisions about buying a boot that compliments your performance ability & makes your feet happy. I have always been a fan of Tecnica's performance and durability.

The first impression that I had of this shirt was that it is thick but after a washing it softened up but still is a thick denim. The color remained unchanged and didn't shrink. This top runs true to size and if I had to muscle up a complaint about this top is that its about a hair too short for me but I find this true with all of their button downs. I Love the quality of Quiksilver women's clothing and this top does not dissapoint. I can't believe I'm saying this but the buttons are fantastic on this shirt.

A high quality running short. This is by far one of the nicest running shorts I have ever purchased. The back has a small pocket that will fit a key & is decorated with reflectors. The inside construction is a tight short, not some weird saggy fabric resembling grandma underwear like other brands. I have a purchased additional helly hansen products in the past and the brand itself tends to run small and fitted. I have large hips so I sized up 1 size in these shorts.

PLUS//
Ive worn this jacket in 10 degree weather & also 50 degree weather. It breaths great and keeps me warm and happy. I can't believe that it's 850-fill down, It is half the size of other 850-fill down coats out there on the market. This is so lightweight, I can already tell this is going to be a perfect addition to camping and traveling.

FIT//
It fits great and runs true to size. If you want to look like an oversized sack then go ahead and size up but I don't recommend it.

MINUS//
The only downfall is that I need to bring a static guard with me when I take this jacket on and off (my hair gets ridiculous when i pull this off)

OVERALL//
Score this jacket before it sells out because it is the perfect jacket for your outdoorsy lifestyle

Scarpa Gea Alpine Touring Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 December 9, 2011

I am a true 22.5 not that 23 shell with a bogus 22.5 liner and spacer in it, it makes me mad when boot companies do this...

but I had no choice at boot options because it was down to scarpa and dynafit in my size. This boot seems killer from the outside but at second glance its not what I expected. First it won me over with being one of the lightest high cuff boots that fit me. And seemed great when it says its a 100 index. After trying it on there is no way it is over 90, I could tell this boot would be cosy hiking but couldn't handle the turns. The fit was narrow in the toe box and was also tight in the heel (which I tend to have lots of slipping no matter what boot I get). Lots of props the the scarpa guys that made a great fitting boot! I had Scarpa tele boots in the past and am always impressed with the stock liner because it is above average than most on the market.

In conclusion I give this a 3 star, because it can get the job done but is not the best boot out there. I would suggest the Scarpa Shaka boot instead.

Black Diamond Swift Alpine Touring Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 9, 2011

I've been through my fair share of boots, and trying to find a touring boot that isn't some low cuff boot that weights 10lbs on each foot is a struggle for girls. In the past I have never been able to keep up because I am so short and my gear weighted a ton. I have to say this is a high volume boot which means its great for girls with wide feet and has met and exceeded my expectations. I have a narrow heel so I usually have to have work done to my boots... and this boot is no different from the others. Overall the boa helps but doesn't tighten that great around the ankle where its needed the most for me but is more of an added bonus to fit compared to my alpine boots. The boot is light so I can't truly bitch about the liner because all in all, I got this boot because of the flex and lightness. If you're contemplating another dynafit AT boot then look no further.

also the buckles take a min to get used too but thats fine because there are only 3.

These pants have a lightweight fleece lining around the top so when you button them up your bellybutton doesn't get cold? They are slimmer than I normally wear but nothing like those guy snowboarders in jeans you see at Keystone. There is plenty of movement still in these, they just are fitted so you look like a girl.

Anyways they run true to size and match the Armada Kindle jacket perfectly. There are standard gaiters on the bottom & the side pockets don't look bulky if you have an item in them. If there was a back photo of these pants you would be able to see that the bottom 1/4 inch of the pant there is a black reinforcement fabric so they don't fray when you beat these to death by the end of the season. Also there is recco on these so in case you don't have a real beacon you might be found.

my only gripe is that I might have to buy some tighter long underwear.

Armada Kindle Jacket - Women's

Armada Kindle Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 October 12, 2011

I would have only associated the word kindle with a B rated product but this jacket is anything but! Lets start with the look. The colors are pretty accurate to what showed up at my house, the coat in the lime color are a bit more vibrant than you see. Next technyness. This jacket is freaking badass. Armada has exceeded my expectations and is now listed as one of my top producers in outerwear. This coat is lightweight yet has taped seams so its a great shell. It has everything from some super duper secret pass holder (it's located underneath the pocket & attached with elastic) to idiot proof zip vents. I say they are idiot proof because I have zipped up my jacket one too many times in a zipper (these wouln't let you mess it up). I'm not always a fan of wrist gaiters but these are lightweight so when you slide them into your gloves you don't have a ton of bulk.

My only gripe so far is that the hood was made for people who ride without helmets. I wish it was a bit bigger.

love in a one piece

The North Face Brightlights One-Piece Snow Suit - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 September 30, 2010

pros:
It made me sad that most people don't even realize your wearing a one piece when your rocking this TNF one piece. This suit has a hood that actually goes over your helmet. Total bombshell. The fit is perfect! (small - 4'3") and the legs don't drag on the ground. the inside has this wonderful corduroy and purple satin. and most of the time I could just wear a t shirt and shorts under this and be so comfy in the middle of a freaking blizzard. love the bold colors and the quality is so supreme for the price. I don't look like a snowbunny but also it doesn't look like a sack. So So happy.

cons:
my only downfall is trying to go to the bathroom and the Sleeves are yellow and they are hard not to attract dirt from getting in and out of the car.

Stoic Welder Insulated Softshell Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 January 7, 2010

I made this jacket my full time ski jacket. I know it might not be meant for that but all it needs are wrist gaiters and a powder-skirt for it to be one of the best jackets I have owned. I love the insulation on these stoic coats. Not too much but just enough to keep me warm. Another big plus is the breathability from the softshell fabric. It controls my temperature when I ride so I don't overheat. This coat has a lot of care taken into it like the interior media pocket with headphone cord rubber hole and then a loop up higher so you don't accidently zip up your headphones. I would suggest going 1 size bigger in this coat.

Stoic Bombshell Insulated Jacket - Women's

Stoic Bombshell Insulated Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 January 7, 2010

this is a very versatile in bounds ski jacket. It can pretty much handle whatever mother nature throws your way. One major plus in my book is that it says insulated but doesn't have that awful bulky feel that some comparable jackets have. It has a ton of bells and whistles but the big plus are the welded seams. I see a lot of products with taped seams but Stoic has gone above and beyond on this product. the only downfall I noticed that it is very fitted and runs extremely small. I had to size up 2 sizes for the sleeves and length to fit correctly.

seriously I could not ask for a better long underwear shirt for skiing. triple exclamation point! This shirt fits and works so well! It washes nicely yet I have not attempted to dry it for fear it might shrink on me. Sometimes in performance shirts I have the silk screened brand logos fall off, but the stoic one is still running strong! I love the thumb holes!

Rating for this product: 4 November 16, 2009

I bought these shoes for my dad as a present and he was so excited. Not only because I clicked on the right link and typed in my credit card info correctly but because the fit was exactly what he wanted. He is a 9 and said they run true to size because when your hiking or slumping through whatever nature sends him you don't want your shoe to slide around on you.

He said these shoes take abuse well and don't breath as much as some of the other TNF shoes that he has owned. Long story short, these are his winter kicks and he is so happy he is planning on buying another pair.

Norrøna Narvik Gore-Tex Performance Shell Pant - Women's

Norrøna Narvik Gore-Tex Performance Shell Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 November 14, 2009

I am so glad I am a girl, my super awesome boyfriend bought these pants for himself and let them sit in his basement because he couldnt figure out why they looked so weird on him. duh, you have a penis. So I inherited these KILLER pants simply because I have no penis. Lets get nitty gritty.

As you can see in my photo I am 5'4" 118lbs and am wearing a size Small black version of these pants. These pants fit me a little big I would suggest an XS (but I like them bigger) on someone similar. These are welded seams, very lightweight and they are goretex so of course they rock. Contrary to previous comments, there are NO VENTS on the inside, (which i would suggest for the next version) but there are 2 large vents that run along the thigh but do not have webbing to keep the snow out. Great features is that there is a knee pocket (for my knife, in case it gets dangerous in the snowbird parking lot) and the bottom of the pants have that ski guard tuff fabric on the inside so I don't trash the bottoms when I go to the bar after.

Rating for this product: 5 September 24, 2009

If you think that these might be some lounge around overpriced TNF shoes you are saddly mistaken. North face went above and beyond when they created these shoes, I actually wouldnt even call them sneakers because they kick all of my other shoes asses. They have the performance of boots but in a sneaker with climbing laces. Lets start with the sole - They are super ridged so when your climbing or running around in the woods your arch doesn't get all jacked up. They arent really breathable, but whatever they are sturdy as hell. The lacing is a little lower kinda like climbing shoes so it gives you extra control. I have been eyeing up these shoes for months and when I saw them drop in price I had to try them out. It was worth the wait and TNF has come a long way in shoe construction since I bought a pair of trail running shoes 6 years ago. Great Great quality, I highly suggest these!

Okay, so the colors are kinda bland for me, but the jacket fits super well. I am an XS and this jacket fits great in the sleeves and scoops a little lower in the butt so when I bend over the back doesn't ride up. The cut fits like a glove in the neck and blocks wind around my chin. Hood is awesome - not sure if I can fit my helmet yet. This jacket is perfect to pack because its light weight. No rain or slush gets through with the welded seams. The only thing I would like to see with this jacket is possibly a skirt and wrist gators for skiing. It would be an unstoppable shell with those features. Either or, I love it even if it is poop brown.

That headline is a little missleading. If your looking for a shell, this is not it. This jacket is a midweight down jacket. It is super warm and is perfect for girls who freeze on the chairlift after busting a move down the slopes.

The construction is premium with welded seams and comes complete with wrist gaiters. I would highly recommend this jacket because they didn't skimp on anything. I trust norrona because its the best.

I am 5'4 with a size 5 boot and I'm 115lbs. I ride pretty much anywhere and hit the trees as well as the groomers and rails. This board has great response and could handle most anything that I put it through. Please understand that most boards are not made for women and this one I feel worked with me rather than against me and my size (I was on the 147).

Rating for this product: 1 February 23, 2009

I demoed these bindings from our gear closet here at backcountry and I was stoked to try out something else on the market. These bindings out of the box look cute and hip but seriously 3 studs on the strap can't make up for the fact that I have lost all control with my board. I felt like I was all over the place and kept stopping to tighten them when they were cranked down to the point of no circulation. There is no best part about these bindings. Duct tape would have been better.

I would like to compare these to my ex boyfriend, because they didn't get the job done and I have had better.

Rating for this product: 5 February 20, 2009

I received this bike rack as a present in 2007. It fits 2 bikes (even with odd shaped frames) very well. Best part about this rack is that if you do need to get into the back of your trunk the rack folds down by the slip of a pin. I leave this rack on my car every summer and have had no issues with any breakage or damage to the car (or rack). I have short summers so that is 4 months. It is the best solution for a small girl like me to get her bike around without lifting a heavy downhill frame to the top of the car! I will admit that I have had countless issues with the rubber leashes that attach your bike to the rack. It is a bitch to get on and off when the rubber gets cold. I feel as though the rubber is such great quality that it doesn't stretch enough and always messes up one of my fingers when attaching or undoing. hah, i shouldn't even bitch about that.

Seriously when you buy your rocket box think of what your going to do with it when you don't have it ontop of your car.....

yes this took 2 of us 3 hours to install. BUT now I don't need anyones assistance to remove the box off of my rack ever again. The hassle in installing this bad boy saved me countless hours of removing and placing this box on top of my suv with someone else's assistance. I would highly consider buying this. But please don't think that this rack can store your gear inside of your box while it is attached to the rafters of your garage. Personally I would not enjoy having my gear falling on top of me or the roof of my suv incase it collapsed. Amazing device, and wicked sturdy. a major score for my clutter free garage.

works super well. I also had one kayak on top of my car. I say had because the kayak was stolen right out of the rack.... BUT this rack is still locked to my car so it's not going anywhere.

This rack is really easy to use and was quick to install with my existing Thule bars. I seriously think it took all of 10 minutes to pull the packaging apart and throw it on top. I love not needing assistance to get my gear on and off of my suv. When putting my Kayak on top and securing it to my SUV it would take about 15 min total. I also have 4 Thule systems and this has been firmly attached to my SUV since 2007 and has seen every weather condition possible. What is great about Thule is that their products are designed to not screw up your gear or your car. I am defiantly a loyal supporter of Thule.

Scarpa T1 Lady Telemark Ski Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 February 3, 2009

I was really stoked to see that Scarpa came out last year with the T1 lady boot. I have a super small foot but need a high performance boot and somehow I found my match.

I could go on and on about how killer this boot is. but first off let me tell you the couple of downsides:
1. the heal cup could be tighter
2. The thermo molded liner came unmolded in a couple of hard days, If you want a great liner buy a surefoot custom liner and footbeds.
thats it.

great aspects compared to scarpas T2 -
1. this boot is way higher, which gives you better performance and control on high velocity turns.
2. extra buckle (duh)

If you are killing it or a first time learner you will love these boots. If your a beginner (like I was) and wanted to buy a cheap boot to learn you will waste your money on other crap products, don't waste your time and money and be frustrated at the sport like I was. BUY THIS BOOT.

thats it these boots rock. if you need more convincing check out this link. but buy here for free shipping.
