I've tried a few sizes in a few different types of patagonia shorts, including the Stand Ups. Patagonia may not be the right brand for me since everything is over sized. Im normally a small or extra small (size 2) and their zeros don't even fit me. My advice is to size down since their clothes run large.

I just bought my second atom lt! The last one I owned for a year and I really put it through a lot and have been impressed with how well it cleans, how tough the fabric has been and how light weight and practical it is for outdoor sport. It is perfectly light and minimal for! I finally had to retire it because I ripped it up pretty bad chimney-ing up a slot canyon. It was my fault.... So now I get to buy a color (mirage) that I love even more than the last!

These bindings are awesome! They are easy to strap and unstrap and are very comfortable. I have a good range of movement with my feet that allows me to have good control of my board. They look sleek, too, which is a great bonus. They are slightly larger than I expected and with my tiny feet the bindings aren't as snug on my boots as I would like. Still night and day compared to my old bindings.

This is a great helmet. Basic, straight forward, just what you need. The price is great for what you're getting!

These gloves have been sufficient! I have mainly been using them for ice climbing and snowboarding. I bought them a little bit bigger so that I can fit in liners. They are pretty minimal and not bulky which has made them great for climbing. So far they have been through a lot and I am happy with how they are holding up!

This is my second pair of levitation pants, just in a different color. I love the fit, fabric and style. Great as a base layer and for yoga/running! My last pair made it through 16 canyons and more. I wore them multiple times a week over the last year and they finally started to show wear. I'm really happy with how they have lasted considering what I have put them through!

Ohhh I love these boots! I have some great things to says and one constructive. These boots are comfy! No break in needed really and the leather is soft. The foot bed is perfect for people with narrow feet and high arches. I also went up a half size and the boots fit perfectly with room for some thick wool socks. The only draw back is the wear on the leather. It is a very soft leather. I had these on for a week and was bummed to see a scuff or mark on the boot when ever it would grace a surface even just slightly. I'm not sure if this is intentional by the designers or not because people do love that worn look that leather can get. It's cool and all but after a week, it looked like I had owned these shoes for years. Ending on a positive note, the soles of the shoes are beefy, grippy and solid! That's one of the reasons I love Chaco so much, the soles! Great boot :)

I bought this wetsuit this fall for wet canyons. I have used it a few times now. I am happy with it. It serves it's purpose and really have no complaints besides it not being the best sizing for a shorty like me! I'm 5'2 and I've found that most wetsuits seem to cater to taller humans with the lengthy legs and long arms. But oh well, I make do! It keeps me warm on chilly days, though, not suitable for freezing temps. I will be purchasing a 7mm wetsuit for that! I plan to only use this roxy wetsuit for late spring, summer and early fall seasons (weather pending).

I purchased one of these for myself and loved it so much that I also bought another as a gift for my sister. The quilted snap and color blocked pocket gives it a retro feel. It is comfortable. It has been washed several times and is holding up nicely with no piling of the fabric. The neck does snap up pretty high and some people find that uncomfortable, I, however, don't mind and think it's sooo comfysnuggly! Just a heads up that it runs big! I originally bought a small and felt swamped in it so I went down to an x-small which was perfect and plenty of room underneath for layers!

I am a fan of Alo yoga clothing, so naturally I purchased one of their yoga mats as well. I am happy with the blue color, the comfort, size and durability. It serves its purpose well!

I've rented various types of crampons and got a good feel for what would be best for ice climbing. So, when it was time to purchase some for myself, Cyborgs were at the top of the list! There is really no better crampon on the market than these in my opinion. Kicking in is smooth and the grip is solid. These are great for mixed climbing, vertical, flat, and you can interchange the front point. Really versatile! They are also really durable and will last for years! I will include some pictures with this reveiw as soon as I can.

This is my second Goddess bra. 'Nuff said.

Just bought my second pair of speedcrosses and it feels so good to be walking on clouds again! These shoes have been great for canyoneering as they are super grippy on sandstone! They are light weight and a great fit for slender feet and high arches.

Retro look, stylish, soft, comfortable! I have no complaints about this sweater. But be aware that it runs a bit large. I am usually a size Small. I sized down to an extra small and its still a little baggy. Silver lining? You can fit layers underneath if need be!

I got these as a gift and;
These shoes are excellent, some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever ran or hiked in. They grip very well on trails and rocks and the zero drop makes a noticeable difference in my stride. the large toe box looks a little strange at first, but that quickly fades. Definitely my new favorite shoes for trail running and hiking!

This meal has all the carbs and protein you need after a long day on the trail and it's delicious. I've tried several backpacking meals recently and this is one of my favorites

I decided to try some of these organic, vegetarian meals and this one quickly became a favorite. It's tasty, healthy and the ingredients make it a complete meal in the carbs and protein category(even without meat!). Highly recommend this meal!

I got this water bottle as a gift for a friend who would burn through so many regular water bottles. His excuse was disliking the taste of tap water. After getting him this, he no longer wastes all the bottles! He says its consistently the best tasting water and brings this thing with him everywhere.

I love that this bottle is easy to use while on the go without any risk of spills. It's also very easy to clean. It does keep the water nice and cool, but not for nearly as long as I hoped it would.

I got this Rambler for my mom for mother's day because she is obsessed with YETI products. She has loved it so far!
