Great stretch makes this carpenter pant a pleasure to wear. VERY soft canvas in a hip chic style, this pant moves with you, not against you, if you know what i mean! I own the natural and love it. Will probably get the chocolate, too. One note, seems to run a little generous. I wear an 8 typically and got a 6 in this pant. At least I moved in the right direction!

This is such an awesome sweater - Marino wool (which I love), soft and cool styling. The v neck is a little low, so it's perfect with a cute cammi under it. I bought both colors! Awesome gift!

Gosh, I have a completely different experience about the Tavarua. First of all, 6 colors are hanging in my closet. A little obsessive, I know, but when you find something you like, don't you just buy it? This is one of those. It's super soft, and wears well... I really recommend it, ESPECIALLY on sale!

Why, you ask? Isn't Gore-Tex Gore-Tex? Yes and no. The way that OR constructs their Enigma Jacket gives you what I call "mechanical breathability." Instead of just having pit zips like everyone else does, this jacket has "Torso Flow" which gives you the choice to do a pit zip option from top down or a hem zip UP to allow for better air flow through your torso. It also allows for you to have this flow even when wearing a harness or hipbelt.

The fit of this jacket is awesome and work great with the Aria Down Hoody as a layering piece. LOVE IT!

I really like this hoody I got this year from OR. Cozy and cute, nice contrast stitch detail and thumb holes... seriously, who doesn't like thumb holes? I find that it's the piece I grab most often around town and in my house when the temperature is down. Now I just need the snow to fly!

Ladies, this puffy parka is a new one for my collection. It fits great, has a powder skirt, pit zips, pocket for my ipod... and on and on. The outer fabric is durable, waterproof but not stiff. Great piece!

This Solitude Jacket does the part - it is fitting on its own and looks great by itself in cooler weather... BUT when you really need to lock the weather out, this jacket because an awesome mid-layer piece: shorter coller so it layers well, and not so thick that you look like the Michelin Man! Probably mu favorite OR jacket!

The warmest down Jacket I have ever owned! If you're like me,(you freeze), this will be your new best friend! Great for belay or around town, or on a super cold ski day. No aerobics in this puppy! Way too warm!

This jacket looks SO good on because of the stitch lines. It's really warm and also works well under a shell. Nice detail!

my FAVORITE part about the OR Aria Hoody is that when the $#*% hits the fan outside, I just throw on my shell and I am all set. The Aria has all of the warmth WITHOUT the bulk, so I never feel like I am wearing 2 jackets. It kills it! I own TWO!

I love the fit and the feel... This is NOT for the 14 year old "boy" body, but rather for the chick who is active, strong and has curves. That's me... I am 40, had a kid, and dress like I am 30. The Paddler fits me great for all that I do, in the water or out of it. Sizing is generous, I usually wear an 8, and fit between a 6 and 8 for Carve. Do not miss this!

This is so F'in cute! Love the gym short look! The best part of this short is how soft the fabric is, the generous fit (who wants a snuggy wet board short?), and the "no velcro" in the fly - instead they use a soft stretchy fabric that is "forgiving," especially at that time of month! Don't miss it!

seriously, this has got to be my favorite shirt from Carve. I own 3 of them!!! super soft, organic cotton. don't miss it!

ladies, don't miss this! I own 5 of them! great length, awesome neck line (nicely sexy if you want it, or not if you are feeling a bit uptight...), fits to the bod, but can also hide the little love handles we can all sport at different times of the month. I love this brand - and I think you will too!

OK, look: if you want the coolest snow tool ever, stop right here. This is it. The Airboard Classic is such a great ride! It turns with the shift of your body weight so easily, and when I say "turns", I mean beautiful arcing S-turns that you see in skiing magazines! The best part of the Airboard is that it can ride in any kind of snow! My first run ever was on a mogul slope at one of my favorite Colorado ski resorts (OK I poached!). But for you backcountry powder hounds, this is another seriously fun way to scream down the hill! Don't wait another second to add another snow tool to your quiver!

The ride of your life has arrived! I am a huge Airboard fan (I already own the Classic) and was able to catch my first ride on the Freeride. I was amazed at how well the board responded for big arcing S turns. I was on a packed run, and the Freeride was unbelievable in stability, responsiveness and sheer fun! And when you want speed, the thing kicks into turbo gear with grace and ease! Jumps, bumps, packed snow, whatever - the Freeride put every other downhill experience to shame. This is no sled, this is an AIRBOARD!

You know, I had the same problem at first as the guy whose foot kept coming out of the sandal. But I tell you, when I loosened the sandal straps over my instep, it made a huge difference. It's as if the tightened straps actually pushed my foot out, while the loosened straps allowed my foot to stay in the sandal with ease. These things are amazing! Just like George Kanstanza on Seinfeld, if you "Do the opposite," it really works!

Wow! I can't believe the warmth of this bag! It's is so amazing that something so warm can be so light. These guys at Western do it right. I own a few of their bags, and there is no other sleeping bag company that I would rely on when I am out in Mother Nature. The Puma is absolutely the bomb when it comes to sub-zero bags. You will LOVE it!

I bought the AlpinLite last year when it first came out and it has been my "go to" bag ever since. It has huge versatility in temperature rating: if it's a warm night, you can actually move some of the down off of the top to the bottom with the continuous baffles. And if it dips below 20F, no problem - this bag is so warm. And at UNDER 2 pounds! It's awesome to have in my camping arsenal. You will love it!
