my two year old, shaeffer, rocks these boots in the snow. they are super easy to put on and off; super warm and water proof. he spent a ton of time in foot deep snow over thanksgiving and sign of discomfort, wetness or cold feet. highly recommend!

not only do they look stylish they are super comfortable w/ the lined fleece. they run a little narrow and like most vans a little small, so don't hesitate to size up. sweet shoe.

good quality fabric and the length is nice (which means i'm not showing plumbers crack when i bend over).

i'm a big fan of this jacket; in fact i bought an larger size for the next two seasons for my son. the 2T fits great (my son is 2 years old 33/35 lbs). the insulation is adequate, but worth adding an extra fleece layer on those really cold days. the water proof rating is nice too since my son spends more time on his bum than on his feet.

super stylish shirt for those marmot fans, but the shirt is super thin and the neck is pretty wide. fits true to size (at least in XL).

the snow is already falling in utah and i'm glad i have these sorel's. they are perfect for shoveling snow, sloshing through parking lots and taking the dogs for walks through the snow. my only complaint is i should have bought a size smaller; i usually wear a 12 and could have gone w/ an 11. the liner is super warm and i often find myself shedding my socks and the waterproof and durability are fantastic.

over thanksgiving i was a little cramped in the family cabin/ranch house w/a dozen adults and two dozen kids so i took my bag & four season tent and ventured outside. we were just south of fish lake, ut w/ freezing temperatures. this bag held up nicely even in such cold weather. i'm 6'2 so the long bag was perfect length. i did layer up and have a pretty good pad to make it through the night, but nonetheless i was pretty impressed w/ the bag.

great jacket! my son just turned 2 and he weighs about 33/35lbs. we bought a 2T which fits great even with an extra fleece layer. the hoodie fits great and doesn't impede vision. this is a very comfortable jacket for winter conditions. the fact it's reversible is a bonus.

I must have purchased from a bad run because I bought an XL and when I put the shirt on the sleeves went as far as my forearm. I think they may have sewn medium arms onto the shirt b/c it was seriously bunched up on the shoulder seam. Lame.

my local climbing gym requires its members to use a chalk sock, so i picked one of these bad boyz up. the chalk is quality and application is easy and not as messy. (i still love the uncut white courage).

it's a nice bag and made w/ quality material. the draw string did break after a couple of uses. but my biggest complaint is my hand doesn't fit into the bag easily; a bigger circumference would have been nicer.

i guess if i were welsh i could love the goat more, but i'm not. i do love this shirt, it's longer than most t's and as durable a Tee can get.

looking for something for trail running, cycling or a day hike. this is a great pack and the hydration is easy to get in and out. this size is perfect for keeping a rain jacket, pants, extra socks and some food. anything more and this pack won't work for you.

first time out this spring in Rock Canyon and the rock was crumbling and being kicked off. the only thing that amazed me was the number of people out NOT wearing a helmet. are you crazy! enough of the rant. this helmet is light and durable and the easy rotating adjustment allows me to wear a beanie on cold days or make it smaller in the summer to fit my head. great helmet and a must have in your pack.

need i say more? these are great for racking cams and the color coding is great for C4's.

just getting started or need to replace a bunch of old ones? this probably the best pack for price and quality. bent great is super easy and they are a pretty light set. you can't go wrong for sport or trad.

great for a personal anchor; the length and light weight is good. seems to holding up nicely a few months into the season.

I have this harness and one from wild country, but b/c I'm a pretty big guy I use the Big Gun when I know I'm challenging myself and may take a few good whips. The thick back and leg padding makes for a more comfortable experience.

this is a great sling for your rack; it's been pretty durable and of course it's utility is priceless (setting up anchors, carrying equipment or a spare belay sling).

I've not bought a new pack in 6 years and my previous North Face pack was great, but I needed something more serious for climbing & mountaineering. I spent a lot of time researching price and features and found this pack had it all. Plenty of space for gear, solid ice axe loops and shovel pocket.

I think the greatest features are the side zip, adjustable lid and super comfortable back panel. Also, this is an ideal size for a quick trip up the canyon or a weekend pack.

This a light durable pack that I recommend for anyone.

Not really, but it was one of the hilights of our trip was hiking Waimea Canyon w/ my 16 mo, who weighs 30lbs, in the kid carrier. it was easy to get him in and easy to get the pack on. it helps if you have a second person helping adjust the different straps, but once you are set off you go.

we hiked for about two miles before we had to stop due to wet ground and crazy steep trail head, but we could have gone further w/ the pack and kid on the back.

not a proud moment as a parent, but i did slip and fall while on the trail. my little guy fell into the head pad pretty hard, but it kept him from hitting my back or even the back of my head. he was a little frightened, but not hurt which was comforting.

now everytime he sees the carrier he

nice quality and long t-shirt.

super light and durable this Petzel Reverso 3 is great for belaying and rappel. it's a little narrower than the BD ATC which is nice for getting friction and keeping your partner safe. also the design is really nice in that when your partner takes a big whip it's pretty easy to take and then give slack as needed.

super light and easy to lock. but my favorite feature is its size, which makes it perfect for belaying your partner up the climb.

this is great for clipping into your anchor and is a great replacement for a daisy chain. it is a little bulkier than suing a daisy chain or runner, but i still highly recommend for durability and safety.

super light and handy sling for creating anchors, extended quick draws or just carrying stuff up your climb.

i bought this shoe for my 5 year old niece. the shoe is a little stiff, so kids might not feel as comfortable as they might be used to in their tennis shoes. the shoe is built durable and the velcro makes it easy to put on and take off.

both my 4 year old and 7 year old niece and nephew used this harness at the gym the other day. it's great for security and comfort; especially for beginners who might be a little timid.

i do think if your kid is going to get into climbing they could grow out of the full body harness style pretty quickly.

i bought this for my 5 year old niece, who has a 19 inch waist, it fit perfectly and was extremely safe. there is no doubt the quality you expect from an adult harness is used on this kids harness; Black Diamond took no short cuts!

ps - my niece was the talk of the gym when she put on this killer harness.

this sandal needed a few days to brake in, but once they did my i loved them. they have a woven straw bedding that your feet can be annoyed by, but they wear great.

who writes reviews on socks? i do b/c these socks are great. i've run in a variety of high performance socks like nike and others, but these are the most comfortable and most breathable w/o leaving your feet cold.

this is a great all around pant for spring/fall weather; the performance fit makes it great for rock climbing w/o feeling like you are wearing tights or nut huggers. i wear a 34/32 and Large fit like a gem.

i'm not sure it gets better than reef. great quality and great comfort.

great rope bag; easily fits 60+ meters of rope. shoulder strap is a little thin, but does the job. it would be nice if they had a zipper pocket to throw in some extras.

shirt fits great! makes me look slimmer and the quality is great.

two problems w/ this shirt: first this is not a plain black shirt, it actually has some funky vertical thread design that looks more like a club shirt you find from a street vendor. second, the fit is not loose! it's slim/tailored and i think hurley also put the wrong arms (sml) onto an XL shirt. i wouldn't buy this shirt!!

hurley makes some great stuff, but this is just not one of them.

i'll keep my comments pithy; it's a great cool weather wind jacket that i use in park city on 40 degree winter days.

the picture shows a grey jacket, but the site calls it black. in reality the jacket is black so it looks like BC has the wrong pic for the SKU. the jacket also runs pretty big which is good for adding layers below. i'm 6'2 200 lbs and the XL runs pretty big on me.

only complaint is the bottom of the jacket should have elastic waist that can be tightened.

i'm new to climbing and for anyone else getting started i think this is a must have item; a few reps while catching up on email or watching a little tellie will work your forearms and triceps.

Hestra, need I say more? Ironically, I bought this glove @Sundance the one time I skied there last year b/c I left my other gloves at home. My other gloves are now permanently left at home. These gloves fit great and are extremely warm. Easy to put on and takeoff. Love'm.

Ok, if I could have added a half-star I would have. I love this jacket: fit, durability, warmth, zippers and everything else. BUT ... I just wish it came standard w/ a hood. I believe they make the hooded version, so if you are like me run w/ the hoody.
