These capris are extremely comfortable and excellent for activities like yoga, pilates, etc. They are very lightweight and cool. They aren't great for climbing, as they tend to pill quickly with the abrasion, and I doubt they would hold up long. They are sized a bit large, I typically wear a medium, but even a small is pretty loose fitting, and the elastic around the waist is not very strong, so if you size too large they will be constantly falling off.

This jacket is very well made and provides great warmth. It has held up valiantly to a considerable amount of abuse and thanks to its wool composition, doesn't smell manky after continual use. I have long arms (3 inch ape index), and the sleeves are more than sufficient in length. My only complaints are that the zipper cover near the neck is not very well engineered (it's made of too flexible fabric and folds over so that it doesn't cover the zipper), and the zipper scratches my skin. I have to manually put the zipper cover back into place so that my skin doesn't get irritated. The hood is quite large and because it doesn't have a pull string, it isn't very useful in windy conditions- since I can't keep the hood up. Overall, an excellent coat requiring only a few minor tweaks.

Love the white shirt. The material is thick and excellent quality. Unlike many other "outdoor" shirts- this one actually feels like it might hold up to a beating. I also appreciate how long the shirt is- it fits nicely under my pack belt without riding up.

This helmet is extremely comfortable and warm, however, I was unable to get my bluetooth to work for incoming sound with my Motorola Razor. I also made several calls to Giro where I was sent to Skullcandy's technical service. Nothing ever came of any of my time and efforts. I finally sent an email expressing my disappointment to Giro and they are supposedly sending me a pick up slip for the helmet. However, it has not yet materialized. Giro customer service is remarkably poor. It's shocking to me that Giro would advertise bluetooth capabilities for a helmet that can't even pair with one of the most common cell phones on the market. Perhaps Maxwell and my experiences are the exception rather than the rule, and I sincerely hope that's the case.

This fleece is amazingly soft and cozy. The only problem was that the sleeves were a little short (I have a +3 ape index). If you've normal human length arms, I would highly recommend it.

These pants are surprisingly warm and heavenly comfortable. I only wish Backcountry would order new shipments more often so that I could buy a second pair- since they always seem to be sold out!
