Arctic Lynx Maternity Activewear Midweight Leggings
These leggings are stylish, but more importantly are comfortable and functional during physical activity while pregnant. They are able to grow with you as you grow, without being too tight on the belly region. This product is best for comfort, functionality, and temperature regulation during physical activity both indoors and in moderate outdoor temperatures when worn as a single layer. I would recommend them to any active mother during pregnancy, especially runners, skiers, snowshoers, hikers,… Full review
Arc'teryx Sabre AR Pant
Terrible pants, terrible Arc'teryx customer support. Pants ripped on the third day of use, on piste! The knee blew out. Arc'teryx support was a disaster and rejected a product defect. Pants also run small and show dirt—they get grotty quickly. Buy Patagonia instead if you care about product quality and sustainability! Arc'teryx is corporate profit over quality and ethics. Stay away. Full review
Eddie Bauer Guide Pro Lined Pants
Crazy comfortable, well-built, and an easy trail-to-town transition. I've never worn Eddie Bauer before but last fall I was looking for a pair of warmer hiking pants that would be both solid on the trail and not so "techy" that I couldn't wear around town in the winter. The Guide Pro Insulated checked the boxes and I'm stoked that I made the choice. The Guide Pro hiking pants are pretty well known and the only difference here is the polyester fleece lining. Super soft against the skin and does a… Full review
Kuiu Peloton 97 Fleece Zip-Off Bottom
Very lightweight fleece base/mid-layers—dry quickly and a lot of warmth for the weight. Kuiu is probably a name a lot of folks aren't familiar with. They are a brand that focuses on backcountry hunting, but they make a lot of really good outdoor clothing suitable for any outdoor pursuit. I'm reviewing both the Peloton 97 zip hoody and zip-off bottoms, same material. I've had the Peloton 97 zip hoody for three years now and it has seen a lot of use (read my review of the Peloton 97 Fleece Zip-T… Full review
Ronhill Trackster Classic
The iconic product, which still works, after all these years. Super-light, stretchy, tough, comfy, versatile, and easy to care for. Extensively copied, but still relevant. Ron Hill was an English long-distance runner, in an era when all athletes wore cotton. Best known, to US readers, as the first British winner of the Boston Marathon (1970), he pioneered carbo loading, redesigned shoes and clothing, and used his academic background as a Textile Chemist to shift the entire paradigm of sportswear,… Full review
Kühl Rydr Pant
Carhartt alternative that satisfies, but requires special care. Launder COLD with extreme caution and NEVER put in the dryer. If you care for your jeans like you care for your expensive gear, these may be for you. Waist fits small. Consider going up 1-2 sizes in the waist. I’m always looking for options when my Carhartts are too heavy but my jeans are too unforgiving. These fit the bill. Kuhl’s retro urban design is packed with thoughtful details, justifying the price, and these trousers have… Full review
Gramicci Original G-Pants
A stylish and versatile product, when introduced. How has the passage of time impacted that reputation? They're still pretty good...but what is their primary function? I bought my first pair of Gramiccis from REI, in Fremont, around 2005. They still made them, without a zipper, in Oxnard, Calf. The gusseted crotch was innovative and allowed climbers room to bend and stretch, in ways that slimmer fitting cotton pants couldn't provide. Waist adjustment was via a partially concealed webbing belt: maximum… Full review
Flylow Baker Bib
When I decided it was time for me to switch to bibs, the Flylow Baker Bibs beat out all of their competitors across all winter uses. My Flylow Baker Bibs were a game changer this season. I knew I wanted to make the switch to bibs after seven previous seasons of constantly re-tucking my mid-layer into the back of my ski pants. The shifting of bottom and top layers during the four major movements that take place during any single ski day were causing me madness; boot up, lift riding, skiing, and… Full review
Eddie Bauer Mountain Pants
Great pants with the extra pocket for your wallet and helps you from getting back aches. Good material. Not for hot sweaty days, but you should wear shorts or jeans then. Full review
