I using these for a week of skiing I am very happy with them. They are extremely comfortable to walk with. The classic "Thump-thump" per step sound associated with walking in ski boots is out the door. In the snow they get you great traction and you are able to walk with confidence. The way these fit allow you to walk naturally and it is quiest and easy. They are a little big but they fit into my skins pocket on my pack with no problem. They protect your boots very well, one trip to the car and I just didnt put them on and my new boots already showed wear. I only one come loose during a walk through the lot and I'm pretty sure it was because I did not fully get it cuffed around the back of my boot. For the price I would say this a very smart investment to help protect your boots for years to come. GREAT PRODUCT!

I never wanted to buy a helmet to ski in my whole life. After just missing my head smashing into a tree in the woods of sugarbush I realized it was time. After doing my research I picked the Smith Variant Brim. First off the helmet looks pretty good which put me at ease because I always associated helmets with gapers. It feels even better, the BOA system really sinches down around your head and it fits great! As for warmth it is amazing. I was in zero degree weather and had the vents wide open. It really holds heat in well and does vent great when needed. I have already recommended this helmet to my friends!

Just had these on up in Vermont for a week and I am impressed. They are extremely warm and are very comfortable to wear. I wasnt the biggest fan of the leather drawstring. Maybe it needs to broken in more but it was a bit annoying to adjust it. Like any leather glove it does stiffen up a good amount when taken off for a couple minutes in very cold conditions but as soon as I got it on they warmed right up. A side note, they look pretty sweet while wearing a red jacket. I bought the black with red accents. For the price they are a steal, pick up a pair and enjoy!

Just got them, I am 6'3 and have large hands. I bought the XL and it is a little tight but I definately feel like they will pack a little bit. They are def a warm glove, the fleece lining is a nice addition, it really makes the glove feel comfortable. At first they are a little rigid but just wearing them for a little while and they are already becoming more flexible. I am looking forward to getting out on these and putting them to work very soon.

I love the looks of these and they are pretty comfy. I know they are board shorts so they arent going to have tons of pockets but I would have preferred more than one small one. If you can catch them in Whiskey Militia then for the price it's totally worth it.

Slept 5 nights now on this pad and love it, the 5 nights were spend on the cold wood floor of a cabin and I stayed warm and comfy all night. It takes a little effort to fill up but really not bad at all. There are two valves so a friend can help at the same time. Im 6'3+ and I fit fine on this pad and its wide enought to turn onto my side and not fall off. I will be car camping in Vermont over New Years and will post a follow up with pics after. It is bulky and slightly heavy so wouldnt really recommend it for hiking/camping but if you dont mind carrying it you def will sleep much better than anyone else in camp. Quality seams good so no worries about that, Cheers Stoic!

Have a pair of orange camo frame with fire iridium lens and love it on bright sunny days, rarely fogs up and is very comfortable with good field of view.

I have two pairs of A-Frames, one for low light and one for bright days. Having this case allows me to ski aggressively and not have to worry about breaking my spare pair in my pack. I thought the price was a little high but when you think about it, its not a bad price for a great insurance!

Absolutely love it. I have used it for 2 seasons already and it still is like new. Extremely warm and lightweight. As for fit, I am 6'3 185 and it fits fine! Knocks the wind out and feels comfy as could be. If and when this one ever wears out I will definately buy another. Already thinking of buying one or two more just to have if they ever stop making them.

I Have to agree with the other posts, I am 6'3 185 and the XL did fit well at all, shirt is warm. But dont plan on wearing this shirt out in public. As a light layer it is ok.

Only have 6 days skiing with these poles but so far they are great. Was a little worried about the locking mechanism at first but it is awesome and shows no signs of failing. The POW baskets handle the job well...Was in Sugarbush's backcountry in knee deep powder and they worked great. Nice and light weight, hiking and skiing Mt Washington's tuckerman ravine in April and looking forward to using these there. There is a hiking tip you can purchase for $7 think it going to come in real handy when hiking. The soft lower grips are great for skinning by the way, and oh yea Backcountry.com is the best!

These straps are indespencable, so many uses for them and they are bad ass tough. Definately a must have in the pack for a day in the backcountry because you can use them in so many ways. Even if you dont have a need for them now I would still pick up a couple and throw them in the pack. Guarantee you will find plenty of time when they come in clutch.
