    After spending a couple years in Jackson Hole and then another 4 in Park City, I've now landed at the edge of the ocean in california. I don't get to ski as much, but the surf and sand is holding me over.

I don't have kids but this is my "go to" baby shower gift and everyone I've given it to has loved it. Looks warm, obviously good quality from Patagonia. Can't go wrong.

Rating for this product: 4 August 26, 2009

The shiny material on these make them look great with a dress or skirt for a casual night out. I was worried that they would hurt my feet, but they actually turned out to be softer than they look.

Rating for this product: 4 August 5, 2008

These glasses are a little small for really wide faces. The lenses are great, but you probably need another style if you have a large face.

Rating for this product: 5 November 27, 2007

These boots are so warm, i love them. They feel like slippers when you put them on but they are still rugged enough to walk around town in the snow. And they look great. I highly recommend them.

A lot easier than it looks

Rating for this product: 5 May 29, 2007

I bought this as a gift for my mother and I was worried it would be too complicated to operate, but it's proved to be much easier than it looks. My only complaint is that it is a big watch but you probably won't wear it any other time than when you are training.

Rating for this product: 5 March 11, 2006

These are my favorite ski socks I've ever had. I like to wear thin socks but sometimes they slide around on my foot and give me blisters, but these are my only pair that does not do that. I highly recommend them.

Rating for this product: 5 February 28, 2006

I just got a new pair of these this year and they seem to fit a lot better than they did last year. Really comfortable, stretchier than I thought they would be, but they still have shape. Prana has really nice detailing to the pockets as well, that you can't really see on the site.

These pants are really comfy and have a little stretch to them, which you wouldn't think because they are 100% cotton. The detailing on the legs of the black ones have white and red stitching, really cute!

I bought this jacket for my dad, who is a big boater and he loves it. He says it's comfortable and very weatherproof. Also, it packs down pretty well to stick in a bag or compartment on the boat.

Rating for this product: 4 July 25, 2005

This is a great jacket for exercising when it's cold out. I've been using it to run when it's snowing or even light rain and it keeps me dry and comfortable. They need better colors though. I’ve got the blue and it’s really plain looking.
