Too bad. I thought this would be a perfect easy slip on and out the door in the snow or rain boot.
I can't say much for it's ability if I can't even try it on.

Rating for this product: 5 August 20, 2010

Material is soft next to my skin with a lightweight feel. Small works well for me. 5'3" 120ish lbs.Have yet to try it reversed as I'll need to take the time to carefully remove the inner tag without compromising the material but it will make a great 2nd skirt for my collection.

Patagonia Footwear Tsali Trail Running Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 June 3, 2010

I typically wear 6 or 6.5. Bought 6.5 and seem to have a tad more room than I really need.
I am new to trail running so I don't have past experience with these types of shoes but they felt comfortable right out of the box and no blisters or rubbing in the wrong places after two months of use.

Rating for this product: 5 June 3, 2010

Bought one size up for my son hoping to use them for a more than one season or just in case he goes through a growth spurt. (finger's crossed)
They fit nicely and keep his feet from getting banged up when doing pretty much any summer outdoor activity in or out of water.

Outdoor Research Voyager Hat - Kids'

Outdoor Research Voyager Hat - Kids'

Rating for this product: 5 August 4, 2009

Bought this for my son wanting a hat that had a drawstring to help keep it on him but did not look like an infant hat. This one fit the bill and has worked well on many a camping, hiking, gardening or day by the water excursion. The sides have snaps so you can pull them up cowboy hat style too. And the best part of all, it takes the abuse of a toddler.

prAna Delaney Tank Top - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 July 7, 2009

Cute design, long flattering length that goes perfect with skirts. Chose a medium according to chest measurements of chart and in retrospect could have chosen a small. But it still fits and looks nice. Only problem is that the very top snap came off in the 1st wash. Solved that by sewing together because I can't see a reason to need a functioning snap in the future.

Teva Omnium Water Shoe - Infants'/Toddlers'

Rating for this product: 5 June 5, 2009

These are my go to sandals for my son. He fits perfect in them as he usually wears a size 5 but these came in 4/5 so I was a tad worried. Perfect for anything we want to do right up to getting in the water at the beach and his toes are covered. The only tiny gripe is that sometimes I get his pinky toe jammed in the side holes when putting them on. This makes him squeak in anticipation. But all is well once they are on!

The North Face Trailhead 6 Bx Tent 6-Person 3-Season

The North Face Trailhead 6 Bx Tent 6-Person 3-Season

Rating for this product: 4 May 20, 2009

Borrowed this tent for a late spring weekend in Southeastern Utah.Used it to sleep 3 adults and one child with plenty of room to house a lot of gear and have room to walk in. Not too much trouble for set up in the dark with two people. It is tall enough to stand up in and has a large vestibule. Our weather was calm and and getting hot during the late afternoons. This made it roast quickly with the rain fly up. The tent has room dividers advertised and this put a notion in my head of actual rooms. Not really what I had in mind and was disappointed about that part but really no other complaints.

Helly Hansen Little H Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 April 20, 2009

I am 5'3", 120lbs. and bought the HH Royal in a small. Love the color! If I had gone by the size chart it would have been a medium. Fits perfect in the small except for one tiny detail. If I want to use my thick fleece face mask on cold snowy days that goes down the neck I can't zip up to my chin. Too much bulk, so I may have to rethink my face mask.

lint balls

Backcountry.com Siphon Street Full-Zip Hooded Sweatshirt - Men's

Backcountry.com Siphon Street Full-Zip Hooded Sweatshirt - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 January 7, 2009

I'd give this product 4 out of 5. I'm 6'3" 200lbs. so the XL is a perfect fit. I like the high chin zip and the contoured fit. My one beef is that after one wash it collects these tiny lint balls that are near impossible to get off. Maybe if I used the dryer it might help but due to its wool content I'm afraid it might shrink. Even a tiny bit would ruin the fit for me. all in all...good product.

Gave this to my father who's hobby is a small farm. I have memories of him out and about in the evenings with a flashlight in hand and thought this would make life that much sweeter. He loves it and has thanked me several times for the light. He said, "It's a great way to see in the dark when your hands are busy."

Patagonia Synchilla Plush Pile Jacket - Women's

Patagonia Synchilla Plush Pile Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 December 17, 2008

Super warm for hanging around the house or to dress up an outfit and go out. I tried the jacket on in a retail store before purchasing and could have gone with an XS or S but decided on the small for a little more room underneath for layers. I am 5'3" 120lbs. My only minor complaints are that the sleeves are a tad long and the button holes required a little cinching up with some thread to keep the jacket from coming undone.
