pretty good - sizing has changed

Rating for this product: 4 October 28, 2009

Bought this for my husband to replace his which was WELL worn. Ordered the same size he's been wearing for years and I had to send back. The leg loop sizing must be a bit smaller. Got the size larger. His only complaint has been that they changed around which direction you do the waistband. Its on the left (??) side now which is foreign to him. He'll adjust and be fine though (:

Rating for this product: 4 April 23, 2009

I'm a size 8 or 10 pant and I got these in medium. Most companies would probably have to order a size Large. Oakley's seem to run big in my opinion. Have the purplish color and like that the moab "red dirt" doesn't stain these as bad a some of my other shorts!

Rating for this product: 4 March 30, 2009

This seems like it will serve its purpose. We travel A LOT and tend to find ourselves in rainy places! It will be nice to have a jacket that packs as small as a pocket. My boy is tall and thin so the large seems to be a good fit. Arm length could be another half inch but its do-able!

The North Face Nuptse Fur II Winter Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 February 17, 2009

So I haven't worn these, but I think I will be returning because they look oddly narrow. I don't have wide feet or anything--standard women's 9.5 size. They just look really long and narrow. I have both columbia and sorel and think they look more normal! Very sad as I loved the style.

I really love this bag. I have boots, helmet, goggles, gloves, mittens, balaclava, hand warmers, beef jerky, gatorade, and several other random things in this bag! I can fit my coat too which is really nice. I no longer look like the stumbling girl that can't keep all her s**t in one place. I probably get an extra run in each time as I get out the door that much faster (:

Rating for this product: 4 January 30, 2009

Got this for my fiance and he pretty much lives in it. I have a similar model that is full zip that I just love. Only complaint is that it could be a little longer in the torso for tall guys. Warmer than you guess!!

My fiance has the previous year ski and really loves them for powder days in Utah. No complaints with the ski at all. He also has the dynastar 8000's thanks to backcountry, but he still grabs for the pro riders 8 days of 10!

The North Face Arnuva 50 BoaTrail Running Shoes - Women's

The North Face Arnuva 50 BoaTrail Running Shoes - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 January 30, 2009

These are great for easy on and easy off on the crag. I run in them occasionally and I seem to want to tighten about halfway thru sometimes? Think maybe my feet have just shifted in the shoe. I wear them all the time and wish they were a bit thicker. Guess they probably vent great, but that doesn't help a person like me that just walks out to the mailbox. Sure a little snow creaps in thru the material but I like them better than my big winter boots! As far as sizing I bought a 10 and usually wear a women's 9.5

Agree that they are a little spendy, but there aren't a lot of great non-cotton boxers out there. These seem to do the job just fine. Cheaper than the patagonia ones too (:

Rating for this product: 4 January 30, 2009

I wear these for skiing. Seem to be fine under my thermals. Don't seem to have the riding up problem but I do think they could be a bit higher in the back-or maybe I have a bit more junk in the trunk than some of these other gals that have posted! Oh well, I like my bum warm when skiing and these do the job!

Patagonia Active Hipster Brief - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 January 30, 2009

I bought both briefs and the boy cut shorts by patagonia. The briefs are waaayyy better. They seem to cover me all up so much better (: The boy cut ones didn't seem to come up high enough in the back. I use them both for skiing and much prefer them to anything cotton. I like to keep the cheeks warm.

K2 Sweet Luv Ski w/ Marker M2 10.0 Binding - Women's

November 21, 2008

You might really like the k2 lotta luv ski. I have a rossi ski (b3) from a few years ago and these are quite similar in performance. Of course the rossi b83 which is the newer of my ski is another fav out here in utah. I ride every part of the mtn with these skis!! I did upgrade to the k2 phat luvs for our really big "dump" days...

K2 T-Nine Phat Luv Ski - Women's

K2 T-Nine Phat Luv Ski - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 May 27, 2008

Got these off this site and couldn't help but use them this past month here in utah. Luckily we had a day with 15 inches at snowbird. I had so much fun with these that my boyfriend even wanted to take them for a few turns. I quickly stole them back! I do agree that once mounted they are a bit heavy. I put a beefy rossi binding though that could din to 12 in case a future user might need it--also had wide brakes. I thought they also did pretty well on a few of the groomed spots esp since they have great new edges. Really bumpy, choppy was the only place they didn't provide me with a huge grin.
