Cool and effective grippers on the arms and the nosepiece. Super light and great coverage. Good for casual riding and cloudy days. They have an eye-catching look that goes great with anything.

The fit is a little tight around the chest and a little on the long side for shorties like me (5' 4''), but great for tucking in. I got the olive color and the light blue goat goes great with it. Everyone else thinks the goat looks cool and wants to know where it came from. Great casual shirt.

My honey, Sam, loved the shorts the first few times that he wore them. He loved the look, fit and the padding. Then, the elastic loop inside the rear of the waistband broke. Seems like a really minor thing, but that loop was cinching the waist for him to prevent plumber's crack...to the alterations lady for repair. Otherwise, really comfortable and cool looking shorts. The vents and pockets are great.

Fits like you have nothing on. Keeps me dry when I have to wear my wool pants at work.

I've had these for a few weeks,now. I've worn them for work, trail running and mountain biking. So, far, so good, but I did notice a small hole in one of them. It's matches the SoCal weather this time of year (March/April). I'll have to wait and see if it's too much for our summer temps.

I've had the XA Pro 3D for about a year and love it. That pair took me from the valley to Half Dome and back in a handful of hours without blisters. So, when it got a little cold and wet, I decided to get the XCR version. First off, it was brand new, so I felt the added stiffness in the sole and the rest of the shoe. The added weight is negligible. I went for a 1/2 hour slog over some snow and was pleased that my feet were dry and toasty. My buddy, on the other hand, had popsicles for feet. On cold days, I also noticed that the Goretex membrane blocks wind. I'll definitely stick with the Salomons. These shoes are comfy, perform very well and fit my wide toe box feet.

I've only worn it a handful of times and I have no complaints. I wear it when the weather dips into the 40's. I've worn it under my wool work pants, capris and riding shorts. It doesn't bunch up and so far, hasn't lost elasticity. It's snug without feeling tight and keeps me warm without overheating. The wide waistband is a nice touch and works well with the low waisted pants/capris I wear. As expected, it's wool, so, naturally, it doesn't stink and neither will you.

This is my first wool performance base layer, so I was skeptical. I've always used synthetics. I wore it on a 3 hour mountain bike ride in cold weather...cold enough to see your breath. I usually get cold fast, but the even with the microfiber weight, I was fairly warm, with the exception of the first part of the downhill. At the end of the ride, the shirt was only slightly damp (the area that covers the back of my sports bra). It's now my favorite long sleeve jersey. I just wish the crew neck was a little larger. It was a tight fit getting my head through and I wear a small in bike helmets. Other than that, the fit is great. I hope Mountain Hardwear will make one with a zip-neck.

Feels so comfortable, like it's not there. Supportive, even on mountain bike rides. I just wish it wasn't cut so long. I'm on the short side at 5' 4".

These are the second pair of Unit shorts that I have.. for good reason. The cut is just right, not too long, not too short, not too tight or too baggy. The pockets are perfectly angled for on the ride accessibility. I've stashed all kinds of stuff in them on rides, including 2 oz Nalgene bottles for my drink powder. The vents actually work and let air through. There's ample padding, provided you have a great seat. These are my favorite MTB shorts. I've even worn it at the Downieville Classic XC race.
