Smith Redline Max Sunglasses - Polarized
March 24, 2009
Highly doubtful. They make each lens specific to each frame. You will need Redline lenses, not Factor.

Giro 2008 G9 Helmet
March 24, 2009
I would recommend this one in a medium. The Moxie actually runs smaller, with the size medium fitting a head size of 21-21.5". I would stick with this helmet in a medium.

Osprey Packs Stratos 32 Backpack - 1800-2200 cu in
March 24, 2009
Depends on what you pack. That is your choice. But it is geared more as a day pack rather than a multiple night pack.

Gregory Baltoro 70 Backpack - 4149-4638cu in
March 24, 2009
This is more of a backpacking bag so security on this pack is not a huge concern. Your best bet would be to get zipper locks for the main compartments.

Oakley All Mountain Hiking Boot - Men's
March 24, 2009
Yeah they will take a little while to break in since they are full grain leather, but after a few times wearing them they will break in nicely and be quite comfortable. As far as size just get what you wear in regular shoes. A 10.5 will work just fine.

Nixon Spree Stainless Steel Watch - Women's

The gold/navy is going to be quite shiny. The navy is combined with a silver color so it will still be shiny, but not as bright as the gold.

It is not specifically made to attach to another bag. But I am sure you could rig it to another bag if you really wanted to.

The North Face Crestone 75 Backpack - 4300-4880cu in
March 24, 2009
Yes it will for sure. It should hold enough. Definitely make sure you have a good compression stuff sack for your sleeping bag. That will give you more room in your pack and your sleeping bag will fit much better in the pack as well.

KEEN Oregon PCT Hiking Boot - Men's
March 24, 2009
The Keen Dry insert is between the outer leather layer and the inner sock layer, so it is not a seperate bootie. Yes these would be appropriate for summer backpacking, I would suggest wearing a lightweight sock though.

Oakley All Mountain Hiking Boot - Men's
March 24, 2009
Sweet question! I hiked Philmont about ten years ago in a similar type of boot. It will be perfect. Heavy duty enough to handle the trails, but lightweight enough to not be too much of a burden. Hope you enjoy your trip, Philmont is awesome!

Marmot Ion Windshirt - Men's
March 24, 2009
That is your choice. A medium is going to fit trimmer and closer to the body as well as be about an inch shorter. The large will fit roomier and be an inch longer
