Royal Robbins Elena 1/4-Zip Sweater - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 October 29, 2010

This sweater is nice, although the blue is not quite like it showed online, it is much more muted. A little disappointing, I was really hoping for the nice jewel tone. But the sweater is comfy enough that I'm keeping it, the only drawback is the turtleneck, the wool's a little itchy on my bare neck, hopefully with a few washes it will soften up.

Split Renee Cardigan Sweater - Women's

October 26, 2010

After buying this and returning it, I think that the white spots are actually light shining through the sweater because it's so thin!

Awful material, weird fit

Split Renee Cardigan Sweater - Women's

Rating for this product: 1 October 26, 2010

First, this 'sweater' is made of the thinnest material imaginable, I don't think it really qualifies as a sweater. Second, the fit was just off, the sleeves were way too long and skinny, and the body felt too short or something. Sent this back!

Does it all

Kamik Ellie Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 5 October 17, 2010

I love these boots, they are much more comfortable than your average rainboots and actually have some support! They are also really very pretty, I get complements all the time! They are very tight around my calf with my jeans tucked in, though, so if you have bigger calves they probably won't work.

CW-X Insulator Performx Tight - Women's

October 6, 2010

What's the difference between these and the CW-X Pro as far as compression/support? Are the CW-X Pro really a lot better?

The glasses themselves are really nice, color's great, they're clearly high-quality... but they are just really, really huge. Unless you are Paris Hilton, you might have trouble pulling these off. I'm not going to send them back because I got them for a steal on WhiskeyMilitia, but I doubt I'll ever be wearing these out. Car sunglasses they shall be.

Disappointing

Columbia Kaci 2 Shoe - Women's

Columbia Kaci 2 Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 August 5, 2009

These shoes fell 'flat' for me (pun intended). I had been looking for a shoe that would provide more arch support than the my ballet flats, but sadly, this shoe doesn't seem to do that. They are much cuter than a pair of sneakers, but for so little support it doesn't even seem worth it, I might as well stick to my ballet flats. Additionally, although the suede is super soft and seems like it won't cause blisters (which is a bonus), it doesn't breath at all. My feet were so sweaty after an hour wearing these shoes around my house that I don't feel right returning them. So I guess they'll be my rainy-day shoes, since they are fairly water-resistant.

Also, they run half a size big.

Nice fit, questionable material

Mountain Hardwear Tierra Pant - Women's

Mountain Hardwear Tierra Pant - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 June 2, 2009

So, I guess I should have paid more attention to the description of these pants when it said "Conduit laminate" because that is exactly how they feel, as if the material has been laminated. Which is weird because the pants have a pattern which makes them look as though they should be brushed nylon. (The pattern also makes the black considerably closer to grey, so if you want true black don't get these.) But I guess that's the price you pay for totally waterproof pants, and they do fit well, which is such a relief for a petite woman who has a ton of trouble finding pants that don't make me look like a puffball (5'2", 120lbs). I haven't tried them out in the snow yet but I moved around the house quite a bit and didn't have any trouble with the waist (and you can always sew a snap to the velcro part if you find it popping open.)

Chaco Leather Flip Sandal - Women's

May 27, 2009

I have to agree with Lauren, I am a 7 in dress shoes and ordered a 7 in these chacos and they are a tiny bit big; not lengthwise so much, but my foot has too much room to move around beneath the straps. So I say do not order up.

Marmot Furnace Fleece Jacket - Women's

May 27, 2009

The fit is not boxy at all, nicely fitted like most of Marmot's stuff. However, I found that it runs a little small-- I have an XS Marmot shell and an XS Columbia softshell that fit great, but the XS in this fleece was too small. I asked about a sizing chart, but if there isn't one I would say go a size up.

Weird Neck

Rating for this product: 2 May 15, 2009

Maybe I'm proportioned strangely, but I found that they neck of this shirt seemed to be offset-- it was gapping in the back and choking me in the front. The fabric was also pretty stiff (although I suppose I should expect that from polypro, my wool is spoiling me!) All in all, not worth it for me, I'm returning them. Too bad, cause I was looking forward to the wicking!

Pearl Izumi Elite Limited Edition Low Sock - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 May 8, 2009

At $10/pair, I expected a little more from these socks... to be sure, the patterns are super cute, but the material feels stiff and and not very stretchy. I have yet to wear them out on a run, so perhaps they will out-shine my good old cotton socks once I do. But so far, unimpresssed.

Chaco Leather Flip Sandal - Women's

Chaco Leather Flip Sandal - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 May 5, 2009

Pros: The arch support is great, and the leather is very soft all over the shoe

Cons: The leather on the sole is so soft that I sometimes find it difficult to keep the sandals on, because my foot slides right off of them. This is exacerbated by the fact that I apparently have extremely thin feet and the straps are not tight to my feet, there's quite a bit of sliding room. (I typically wear a 7 in dress shoes and ordered a 7 in these and the length is correct).

Also, the leather on the straps is not at all supple and somehow is creating a pinch on the top of my foot with each step. I'm seriously hoping that these sandals will get more comfortable with more wear.

Rating for this product: 2 May 1, 2009

These socks seem pretty soft and very cushy, but based on where the padding is, I'm pretty sure that they are meant for boarding, not skiing.
