Yikes, that's one ugly shoe...

KEEN Austin Casual Shoe - Men's

KEEN Austin Casual Shoe - Men's

Rating for this product: 2 June 16, 2009

As much as I love Keen products, I have to say that these are the ugliest shoes I have ever purchased. Sure they are waterproof, but they're still hideous to look at. A little stiff as well. The top of the shoe naturally creased just in front of my arch and it kills my right foot. Unfortunately, I will be returning them shortly.

Great Polartec 1/4 Zip Shirt

Backcountry.com Prime Power Stretch Top - Long-Sleeve - Men's

Backcountry.com Prime Power Stretch Top - Long-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 January 20, 2009

Great midlayer fleece 1/4 zip shirt. Warm, very comfortable and not too "athletic" of a fit. At 6' 230, I was concerned that the XXL would still be a little snug, but it fits perfect. My only gripe is the fact that the chest pocket will only accomodate a slim cell phone and a container of chapstick, but what more do you need? I bought two of these shirts on SAC and at $35, there isnt a better fleece shirt on the market (even at $70 its a good buy). I have previously worn the Marmot Power Stretch Half zip and this shirt is a very close match to that shirt. This one has a much better collar, the Marmot has a larger chest pocket. The Marmot's drawback is that it is very fitted. I like the cut of this shirt a lot better. I highly recommend it, in fact I'm wearing one as I type this review.

Marmot Heat Shield...Buy it

Marmot Heat Shield Fleece Jacket - Men's

Marmot Heat Shield Fleece Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 January 7, 2009

I actually replaced my Marmot Superhero with this jacket. It is windproof as is the Superhero, but this jacket has more pockets than a pool table (okay, only four), plus pit zips which the Superhero has none. I highly recommend this fleece. I have worn it in 10 degree weather and in weather as warm as 50* F. The only thing the Superhero had over the Heat Shield was it's zip-off hood. You cant go wrong with either, but for utility/versatility I would opt for the Heat Shield, you wont be disappointed. One note, it has an athletic fit, so expect a little less room than Marmot's shells.

Actually Gore Tex Performance Shell

The North Face Free Thinker Pant - Men's

The North Face Free Thinker Pant - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 January 4, 2009

After receiving the pants I discovered that they are actually 3 layer Gore Tex Performance Shell, not Gore Tex Pro as advertised by the North Face themselves (a lengthy chat with The North Face actually made them aware of the inaccuracy in their description). They are just that, a 3 layer SHELL, so a good, breathable base layer is a must. Regardless, these are incredible pants. Absolutely bulletproof and very high quality. Fit is pretty accurate, fairly loose around the lower leg. I would recommend them.

GORE TEX PERFORMANCE, not PRO

The North Face Free Thinker Pant - Men's

The North Face Free Thinker Pant - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 January 4, 2009

After ordering a pair of the FREE THINKER pant, I discovered that The North Face has been marketing these pants incorrectly/falsely. They are advertised as being 3 layer Gore Tex Pro, when in reality, they are 3 layer Gore Tex Performance Shell. Not a huge difference, but for $400, I would expect "top of the line". Considering the fact that there are several alternatives for less than $400 and are made with Gore Tex Pro, I was a little disappointed. Other than that, I would actually rate the pant as a 5 star pant. They are well built, have everything you would ever need. Sizing is pretty true to size, but the lower leg is huge. Great suspenders. You wont be disappointed in the pant, unless (like I was) you are expecting a Gore Tex 3 layer Pro material.

Under Armour Hundo Quarter-Zip Fleece Pullover - Men's

Rating for this product: 1 January 2, 2009

After one use, the collar was pilling terribly. Great cut and warmth, but will last for about a month with regular use. For $70 I would expect more. UA just hasnt learned quality vs. quanty. Unfortunate because I like the look and fit, but it looks like I have had it for a year after one use and wash.
