Fjallraven Women's Abisko Trekking Tights
The Fjällräven Abisko Trekking Tights are the perfect solution for comfortable and durable trekking pants as well as a thermal baselayer, all wrapped up into one. They feature functional pockets and robust construction, providing so much utility that one may find that no other pants are ever needed. Specifications: Design: Reinforced Knees/Rear, gusseted crotch, articulated knees, and flat-lock seams Knees/Rear Material: 62% polyamide, 16% aramid, 12% elastane, 10% polyester; Stretch material:… Full review
Bambool Hooded Top
An expensive top with subpar stitching, fit and lacking in quality control. I purchased this top for all season UPF protection on mostly western trips. I had purchased another top from Bambool that was a baselayer and really liked the fit, wicking properties, and anti-stank that it afforded after several days. This top has eventually had the same issues, minus fit, that I've had upon initially receiving the hooded top. *I'm not too sure about most people, but when I pay this much for one article… Full review
Swiss Barefoot Company Free Your Feet (Classic Swiss)
These were absolutely awful. These shoes are advertised to withstand rock climbing, hiking, and other outdoor activities. They did not hold up long at all and I only had them for a month before they started getting holes.
They advertise it like you can wear these anytime and anywhere, but you can’t and I would not recommend it. Complete garbage! The product is complete trash! Full review
Patagonia Men's Houdini Jacket
Ultra lightweight, packable, minimalist jacket. I bought this jacket to throw in a small pack, along with an ultralight thermal layer (Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisperer Down Jacket) for long rock climbing routes. The two together add a lot of warmth in a tiny package for a combined weight of 10 oz. I find that I am likely to throw it my pack or pocket whenever I am unsure of the wind or temperatures I will encounter—you don't even know you are carrying it. But the single horizontal chest pocket… Full review
Outdoor Research Echo L/S Duo Tee
The Outdoor Research Echo Duo long sleeve shirt is a fantastic shirt for backpacking. It is lightweight, breathable, wicks moisture, dries quickly, and provides UV protection — all from a fabric that is silky soft against the skin. This is a review of the Outdoor Research Echo Duo long-sleeve shirt. The Echo comes in four styles: short sleeve, long sleeve, long sleeve zip, and long sleeve hoodie. I have one of each but the zip. The fabric and cut are the same on all of these versions. The long… Full review
Buff Visor
Beautiful, but pricey! Buff Visor. The popular headband company that wanted to make a hat with the addition of a totally useless neoprene visor that double-acts as a sweat absorber if you flip it against your forehead until you get a headache or pass out from the smell of neoprene. And that is why I ripped it off. Much better now!The length is now just over 50cm.The Coolmax fabric ensures wicking, but this particular headband is too hot compared to my other generic one. It offers 95% UV protection… Full review
Seirus Thermax Deluxe Glove Liner
The glove keeps hands warm. First time worn, seams just pulled apart. I made multiple attempts, but the manufacturer never replied. I bought the product as a liner. It kept my hands very warm. Wore them about an hour. I got home, removed the outer glove to find two seams opened up. I sent two emails to the manufacturer. They refused to respond.
I presume that all their products have quality issue, and choose to ignore them. Full review
Icebreaker Fingerless Merino Wool Gloves
Great solution if you need fingertips handy. Merino is smooth, doesn't itch. Good for cool weather and as a liner for cooking, photography, pitching a tent. Sadly may have been discontinued. Closeout purchase from an Icebreaker store that closed in our area. 100% merino wool. Very stretchy, not tight, cuff is ribbed and doubled over. Ends of fingers are nicely finished, no loose ends. Thicker than 200 weight merino long johns. I use them often during shoulder season hikes on their own. Very minor… Full review
Sunday Afternoons Eclipse Cap
This is without a doubt the best lightweight, flexible cap I've ever owned. It can be completely folded (including the brim) and carried in your back pocket. At 2.2 oz you’ll forget you have it along! I’m a hat hater! I rarely wear a hat even though I own many. Since I wear eyeglasses, there are times when a hat is required such as a sunny golf match, hiking into the setting sun, a hard driving rain, heading to a public place with “hat head”, morning camping with crushed hair... When a hat… Full review
