The velcro is gray, not black like the picture shows. It is the same gray as the coat.

Stoic Merino 150 1/4-Zip Shirt - Long Sleeve - Men's
November 23, 2011
Unless Stoic has changed their ways, the Stoic logo decals shown near the neck and cuff are both reflective. However, due to their size and location I wouldn't count on them to make you visible in the dark.

Norrøna Falketind Gore-Tex Pro Shell Jacket - Men's
December 28, 2009
After less than one week of owning this jacket, I pulled on the hood cinches while wearing mittens, and one of the plastic cord ends popped right off and fell to where it could not be retrieved. Definitely not the end of world, but it is harder to pull now. Anyone have any similar experiences with this or other jackets, or is this a fluke?

Julbo Explorer Sunglasses - Camel Anti-fog Lens
October 22, 2009
http://www.julbousa.com/lenses/
If you would actually benefit from the anti-mist treatment, there's no reason not to go for it.
For most people, however, the only noticeable difference is probably the weight: Alti lenses are glass (heavier), whereas NXTs (these) are polycarbonate (lighter). The lens tint is also slightly different: Altis have no color; Camels are slightly yellowed, apparently an attempt to restore color in "washed-out" conditions. (Just for the record, the glasses appear black when actually worn; the yellow color is only visible when the glasses are off.)
If you shop around, you can get Camels for the price of Altis and avoid the question altogether.

Norrøna Falketind Gore-Tex Pro Shell Jacket - Men's DO NOT USE
October 21, 2009
Here are (my) measurements of a medium and a large from last year (as far as I can tell, they haven't made any changes). Note that the sleeve measurements are general, due to the articulated elbows and also the fact that the sleeve is longer on the top of the arm.
I'm 6 foot, 130 pounds, and I'm going to keep the large (to have layering room). Also, do not expect the same luck with Norrona fleece - their sizing and cut is in no way similar to this shell.
Medium, Large
Sleeve from center back: 87, 89 cm
(straight down center of sleeve when laid flat; +1 cm top of sleeve, -1 cm bottom)
Front zipper length: 75, 77 cm
Back length from hood seam: 69, 71 cm

The North Face Basecamp Duffel - Pakhe
August 2, 2009
This looks identical to the current North Face product "Jholo," so the fabrics are probably very similar.
http://www.thenorthface.com/catalog/sc-gear/equipment-luggag
As noted on the North Face web site, the Jholo is made from phthalate-free TPE fabric laminate. In a chat with a representative on their site, I have also learned that its fabric is waterproof, although the seams are not.
The answer form here doesn't seem to be functioning correctly, so hopefully this is not the third response.
