Crumpler Barney Rustle Blanket Messenger Bag - 854cu in

Crumpler Barney Rustle Blanket Messenger Bag - 854cu in

Rating for this product: 5 April 25, 2010

Still getting the feel from the bag, but I enjoy it so far. The shoulder strap pad's a bit stiff right now, and an external pocket (like mentioned below) would be great. There's already some webbing on each side, but they're not large enough to do anything with them. Those are minor, minor critiques. The bag's very solid and a good size. I'd recommend it.

Good gloves- have bought 2 pair

Rating for this product: 4 November 25, 2009

Very pleased with gloves. Any extra pull on strap has been added that my wife's older pair doesn't have. Sizing seems about right.

Breaks wind, still nice and soft

Patagonia R4 Fleece Jacket - Men's

Patagonia R4 Fleece Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 November 25, 2009

Living in windy Wales, I've already gotten plenty of use out of this jacket. Need a shell over if raining, and then can get clammy with warmth. Otherwise, it's extremely warm for how thin it is. Truly enjoying it. I'm 5'11", 165lbs and ordered the medium. Trim fit on body with good length on sleeves. Sleeves seem baggy especially compared to body fit (or maybe I have puny arms).

Cool shoes- slip on easily but stay on easily as well. My main pair of out and about town shoes. Just started wearing them, but they handle the rain, puddles, dirt, and debris without a problem. Wish they had more colors to choose from.

Good traction- maybe runs a bit large

Rating for this product: 5 January 4, 2009

Gloves are working great, but I could have probably bought a small for my wife instead of the medium. The gloves either run a tad large or my wife's hands have shrunk.

Better than Nalgene

CamelBak Better Bottle w/ Bite Valve - 1L

CamelBak Better Bottle w/ Bite Valve - 1L

Rating for this product: 5 November 13, 2008

1L is good all-around size vs .5L bottles. Bottom is large (not mine, but the bottle's) which can be a problem with your car's cup holders. If you're not familiar, bite valve is great.

Yakima LandShark - Set of 4

Rating for this product: 4 November 13, 2008

Relatively cheap and effective, but bracket info is somewhat misleading. For a factory installed crossbar expect to purchase an adapter. Also, no problem mounting one sea kayak on top of an SUV, but 2 just can't squeeze in.

Osprey Packs Talon 44 Backpack - 2600-2700cu in

Osprey Packs Talon 44 Backpack - 2600-2700cu in

Rating for this product: 5 August 4, 2008

This pack has been great for on the go traveling. It's light, roomy, and versatile. The hip belt is comfortable, easily adjustable, and has convenient pockets, the camelbak stowage is accessible, and the stretchy front and side pockets allow easy access and venting. Things that could be improved: lots of straps hanging all over the place, more compartments to separate gear, and less cumbersome opening on top (tie strap and buckle). Overall, an awesome pack that's already earned it's money in Singapore, Malaysia, Germany, England, and Wales.

great jacket- long sleeves, though

Mountain Hardwear GTX 2.5 Jacket - Men's

Mountain Hardwear GTX 2.5 Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 February 5, 2007

I love the jacket- just what I was looking for in terms of weight, packability, and protection. I plan to use this for snow skiing, snow shoeing, camping trips, and bike riding in the summer so I needed something quite versatile. So far, has met expectations. One note, the sleeves seem disproportionately long but haven't been a factor. Instead of wearing my gloves outside the jacket, I do the opposite.

xgk stove- as advertised?

MSR  XGK EX Stove

MSR XGK EX Stove

Rating for this product: 3 October 17, 2005

This is my third stove I've owned. A big reason I picked it was the simmer capability. The stove lights easily and puts out plenty of heat. Unfortunately, it sounds like a jet engine. It's very loud. Also, the simmer capability goes from extremely hot to quite hot. To simmer adequately, I would alternate between off and the lowest setting. Not quite what I had in mind.
