I have climbed in Evolvs for 4 years now, and I picked these up last season. They are by far THE BEST climbing shoes I have. I can wear them all day when I boulder but they still give me enough support and control to crack climb & smear granite. Plus, Evolv's rubber cant be beat. Its the softest and stickiest rubber I have ever felt. Seriously, you will LOVE these!!

I have major problems with my feet when it comes to snowboarding. I constantly have to adjust my boots because my feet get cold, or because the seams of my socks are creating pressure on my calves. These socks have ZERO seams for pressure, and kept my feet toasty as hot toast ALL day long. Plus, what a deal! I would order 5 sets....seriously they are worth every penny!

I bought this because of the price, but I have worn it 3 times boarding and I can honestly say that it is the warmest jacket that I own. It kept me warm when it was 6 degrees at the peaks. For the price, I dont know why you wouldnt buy this!! Plus its super stylee looking.

These have received awesome reviews in all boarding magazines, and I can definately see why! Unlike some of the other reviewers, I found these bindings to be extremely supportive and responsive. I paired these with the Sapphire Boot for a perfect setup.

So ya I get alot of crap from my friends about these boots, but for the record these are the warmest, most comfortable shoes that I own. They are perfect for the super gnarly weather we get here in Utah. Plus, I love to see people laugh when I wear them. Laughing with me...right?

I demoed this board last year, and was so excited that I snagged one. I am stoked to use it this year because of the awesome reviews it got. Plus, the graphics are killer. Worth every penny!

I have ridden Burton bindings for a few years now, but I've never been so impressed as I am with these. The double wide straps give you major support and control, while the toe cap and strap garage make it a good buy even though it’s a little extra money. I’m serious here, these bindings are worth the upgrade!

Okay okay, so I bought these boots originally because of the super steezy silver look, but once I tried them on they are easily the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. Although I’m a little hesitant about the speed lacing system, it seems to be a fast way to give your boots a tight, custom fit. In short: silver boots * comfy fit * supportive upper = snowboarder to the third power!!

These boots are lined with fuzzy goodness that make your feet feel great! They look especially hot with a pair of tight jeans tucked into them. They are just cloth, so I doubt they will hold up through the winter slush without some kind of weather-proofing. But these are definitely a pair of super-stylin' fall boots!

These slippers are so soft and squishy that I stuff them in my purse and bring them to wear at work on chilly days. The bunny design is cute but...come on, they are Volcom so don’t worry about looking like a wuss. Now all I need are the mittens and hat to match...hint hint... good Christmas present!!

This jacket looks sooo hot with my white Burton Cargo Pants. It is insulated and has pit zips, for a fraction of the price of other Burton jackets. It is well worth every penny, and the color is really different from anything on the slopes.

I use this thing everyday! I fits all of my make-up and daily toiletries with plenty of room left over. The structured sides protect everything inside from getting smushed. Plus, it has a mirror inside so that I can get ready anywhere. This comes in handy after I have spent the night at a friend's house.

I bought these pants last year and they performed great in gnarley conditions. This year however, they have added cool details and suspenders that make these pants even cuter. The fit is still the same which is SUPER baggy, but the waist fits pretty true to size. I’m 26 waist and the size small fits just right.

Seriously though, these are already my favorite pants I own. I’m really short (5'2") and capris can sometimes make me look stubby but I bought these in an XS and they are the perfect length. They are super stretchy so you might want to round down a size. I wear these climbing, to work out, and to chill around the house in. The organic cotton makes them super comfortable and so soft that you will never want to take them off!

I have always been a huge prAna fan, but I had heard that Contourwear is twice as nice. So I bought this and all I can say is WOW! I have already worn this every day because it is super soft, super flattering, but it is breathable and anti-wrinkle enough to stuff it into my gym bag. I wear it climbing all the time even though it looks like a sexy sweater. I’m telling you, it’s worth the price! Oh, and it fits generously because it is stretchy.

I bought this because I love all of my PrAna gear that has this fabric (the nylon/spandex blend). This top has performed extrememly well when I climb, which is good becuase I can concentrate on the climb rather than having to pull and tug and a top!

I dont get it...just kidding. This shirt is awesome!! I love wearing this shirt to see the shock on people's faces. Sure its juvenile humor, but I heard that the Backcountry.com employees are just a bunch of people that work hard by day, and party hard, act juvenile, and play in the outdoors on weekends! Cool shirt for a cool company!!!Go Backcountry!!!

This tank has cute little metal details and soft waffle fabric. However, it has zero support. I wear mine underneath my Roxy Ellie Short-Sleeve Blazer to go out, or with my Volcom Reiter Crop Fleece Capris for laying around the house. The Audra is a very hot tank top as long as you are...um...petite. So all of you Pamela Andersons out there might want to steer clear of ths one!

I just bought this jacket and I have already worn it a million times. I wear it with jeans for casual days and I wear it with black pants to dress it up. Oh and did I mention that it is super flattering? I promise, this jacket is worth every cent!

This skirt is really cute and short but not so short that it looks skanky. I wear it all the time with my flip flops in the summer for a super casual look. It fits kind of big, so if you are between two sizes don’t order up

I have tried a ton of packs, and by far I think this pack is the best one for women. I took this on a four day trek, and it was so light and comfortable that I felt like I only had a day pack on. Not to mention the superior quality of Osprey. I have recommended this to several people, and everyone who uses it will never go back to another brand. Great price too.

My boyfriend and I both got a pair of these shoes, and they were way better than we ever expected. I took them when I hiked The Narrows (read: hiking IN the Virgin River) in Southern Utah. They not only drained water in seconds, they also protected my feet a million times better than a pair of water sandals would have. I highly recommend these for any one who needs some killer water shoes.

This top is extremely flattering and supportive. I wore this in Zion National Park and it kept me cool and looking good the whole time. Get one in every color!

I took this on a camping trip in southern Utah where the fire danger has been high. As a result, the rangers did not allow any camp fires. But no big deal, because I cooked all of my meals using my JetBoil! The water literally was boiling before I even sat down. Amazing!

These are the ultimate shoe to wear hiking, boating, to the gym, to relax, and even to sleep in. That’s right, these were so comfortable that when I was camping, I actually fell asleep in the tent with these on (I was only woken up by my boyfriend yelling that I got dirt all over the tent...oops). They are the greatest!

These were lifesavers on a recent camping trip. By the third day, when everyone else was hating life because of the dirt, I was perfectly clean. It like having a portable shower in your pack! I highly recommend these to campers who don’t want to smell like a filthy hippie.

Chalk is chalk, right? Wrong! This is by far the best chalk that I have used. No slippage whatsoever. Great for bouldering since it’s already broken down. You can just dip your hands in and climb!

This top has an extremely low back that shows off all of your hard work lifting weights! The material is cotton, which worries me because every time I wash it the color fades a little. I would prefer a Lycra/spandex mix, but otherwise great!

These shorts are a high quality fabric and they are well sewn. But for working out they are a little high for me. They ride up during my eliptical training, but otherwise they are great!

These sunglasses look as good as Gucci or Prada but are sturdy enough to wear on hikes and climbs. The only annoying thing is that the bottom of the frames are not attached to the lenses and bits of dust and dirt slide in forcing me to clean it every so often. Otherwise, perfect!

Wow...that is all I have to say. This material has booty-hugging stretchiness! The flared legs and fold down top are extremely flattering. I am 5' 3'' and 115 pounds and an XS fit very nicely but they are barely long enough. Any one taller than me probably wants to go up to a small. Also, the fabric washes up nicely and never looks old or washed out. Expensive, but worth every penny.

This jacket is worth every penny because I get a ton of use from it. From the gym to work to a rainy day, it always looks hot. The thumb loops are a nice touch. It seems to run big though, so if you want it fitted order a size down.

I was at the gym when I knocked my Red Bull over and it spilled all over my Apex Zip on the ground. I picked the shirt up, shook it off, and it was as good as new! It had no stains what-so-ever on it! The shirt really is THE BEST, but it fits huge so order a size down. The green color isn’t the most practical, but I get a ton of compliments on it!

This top fits so sexy! Prana has fixed verything that is akward about a halter top: it has a really supportive shelf bra and the top itself is extra long so that it doesnt ride up when I climb. Beware of the colors: the Iris color is still pretty but it's a lot lighter than the picture.

The pants are the about the hottest things out there! They are super baggy and way comfortable but still look girly. They have cute details on them that you can’t even see on the web. I mean, not that I care about what I look like boarding but...

These gloves are great if the snow isn’t wet and heavy. I put heaters in the pocket and they really did work like a toaster oven, heating the entire glove. However, I wore them one day when the snow was wet and they leaked water like mad.

This hoody is super soft and comfortable! I wear mine everywhere from lounging to boarding. The fit is flattering too. Tip: be careful when you wash it up because it shrinks a lot in the sleeve length.

Sure this is just a T-shirt, but once you put it on you will be amazed at how well it fits. The material is way soft too, and I got tons of compliments on it!
