I really like the comfort and wicking of these featherweight layer. I wear them all the time in the spring, summer and fall when doing anything active. They work great for hiking, trail running, camping, etc. Highly recommended.

This softshell is simply awesome. The material is very durable yet softer and more pliable than any hard shell. It seems harder than the WindStopper Softshell that is used on the Alchemy Jacket but is still softer than any traditional hard shell I've seen. The jacket works great for skiing on days over about 15 degrees. It does a nice job blocking the wind and fits on the more snug side. It has a very light fleece lining inside it which, for me, is a nice addition as I use this jacket in weather from about 15 degrees to about 45 degrees so the extra little bit of fleece is a nice touch. I don't have a problem with the arm length as some other reviewers did. Overall a great fit and great quality jacket; for most days here in Colorado it's awesome.

This is a great jacket for going downtown (aaahhh--name) or anywhere that it's cold and bright. It is very warm and has a much more fitted fit than the SubZero Jacket does. It also is a bit longer meaning that it covers most sweaters that hang down just below your waist. It also looks very nice and adds a bit more style than most down jackets. I wear this a lot with only a short sleeve shirt or one layer on in 10 degree temperature at night with very little activity (walking around outside, light hikes) and it is still incredibly warm. Does a good job taking care of light moisture (not as good as the Conduit SL on the SubZero SL but still better than the regular SubZero).

I use this as an insulation layer on more mild days. The material is very soft and comfortable. I have the grey / black color and it even works as a casual layer. I like the fact that it is not very thin but not very thick making its' medium density perfect as a mid layer over a base layer and under a shell on most days between 20 and 45 degrees. It even blocks a light wind. Although I've mainly used it skiing it also works nicely for out on the trail over a t-shirt as a light fleece.

I've used these pants for skiing in various conditions and they are very nice. The softshell provides really nice wind protection and is very comfortable. The front pockets are really nice; I've had my cell phone as well as cash and other small things in there. The fit is snug but not tight. I normally wear a size large and these fit comfortably over a pair of heavyweight long underwear. Adding a 2nd base layer also will fit but it is snug at that point.

I love the look of this casual sweater pullover. It is lighter in density and thickness than appears in the photos but the wool outer layer coupled with the fleecy interior make for a warm and comfortable top shirt that works great for a casual work environment or heading out on the town. The quality is standard Mountain Hardwear. To me, it seems a bit misleading to call it "Burly" because it is so thin; however, maybe it's just me...when I think of "burly" I think thick and super toasty warm. This definitely isn't that, but it is a great thin and moderately warm pullover.

This is a great base layer for active fall and moderately cool winter days. It does a great job wicking moisture and is fairly comfortable for a synthetic shirt. I've used for a skiing base layer and as the only layer running and it works well. The eXtend mid-weight is a little heavier, and that works very well for the colder days.

I purchased this lumbar hydration pack for active pursuits on the trail and have not been disappointed. I've used it on both trail hikes and during trail runs and have found it to be very stable and even during fast-paced runs it only moves a little bit. The clip on the belt holds the tube and valve nicely and the small pockets hold small extras well. Nicely done, Camelbak.
