Osprey Packs Atmos 65 Backpack - 3800-4200cu in

May 11, 2011

Last January, I spent a month backpacking around the south island of New Zealand. I needed something light, moderately large, and and comfortable. This pack fit the bill perfectly! The ventilation system is top-notch, the waste straps and shoulder straps are light and breathable. Love the pockets, especially in the waste straps. Overall, great pack. Buy it.

Arc'teryx Peakline Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Men's

Arc'teryx Peakline Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 May 11, 2011

Another quality product from Arc'teryx. The stitching is superb, with incredibly low tolerances. Being 70% cotton, this shirt is surprisingly breathable, and has never had that annoying "stick" that other cotton button-ups are notorious for. Have not yet taken it climbing, so cannot experientially comment on durability; but it seems to me like it would not have a problem.

As far a sizing, I am 6'2" and an athletic/ lanky build and a LARGE fits well through the length and arms. The picture makes it seem a tad more slim fitting than it actually is.

Overall, great shirt; highly recommended.

Have had these a little over a month and have gotten a lot of use out of them. Several multiday hikes, climbing, and mountaineering and they have help up perfectly. They look good, however are very light on the face and fit my nose perfectly. I have a medium sized face and get compliments on how well they fit. The Moss/Silver is much darker than it appears on this site; can hardly tell they are clear when in use. I'd recommend them.

Arc'teryx Covert Fleece Hooded Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 2 December 28, 2010

Have had this hoody for just over a year, so I feel like i have experience to review on durability. It's really not that great... The sleeves are pilling horribly; the stitching is also coming loose on the bottom of the sleeves. If you want to wear a technical brand for sitting on the couch and looking cool walking around town: go for it. Anything else: save 200 bucks.

I'm 6' 2" 170 lbs and a Large fits me perfect. A Medium sounds like it would work for you, it definitely has an athletic cut.

Love them, Just make sure you don't tighten the straps too tight around the ball of your foot for just relaxing, they can cut circulation. But if you are doing anything where your feet are movin, tighten as much as you want and they are a dream.

Rating for this product: 5 July 20, 2010

Awe, i've been looking for a light synthetic vest for a while and this one fit the bill perfectly. It is very warm when layered with a shell and light layer underneath, but also perfect as a stand alone on brisk days at the crag. Very low bulk and highly compressible (the picture below is accurate). Aso, always get compliments on how great this thing looks just walking around town, which is always a plus with a piece of technical gear. Decent water resistance, as a short rain shower beaded right off. Highly recommended for the price.
6'2" and a Medium fits almost perfect, just a tad short, but I love it.

Very stylish boardshorts. Dont have a tie and sinch waist like nearly all other shorts. It is replaced with two buttons and a quality ykk zipper. THis means that the boardshorts have to fit perfectly or else they will simply fall off your ass... I wear 32 and they fit me almost perfectly. But, if you like shorts that go past your knees and not to them, look elsewhere.

The Crystal one is subtle, yet makes a statement and i like it. the large is LONG (even when compared to other NOMIS hoodies), but it totally work for this jacket. The zipper cover fabric does get a bit wrinkly after a washing, but that's not big deal. Also try to pick it up on BROCIETY.COM for a steal!

I got the black plaid one. Very dope, tons of compliments. It fits perfect and like all Nomis Hoodies, it has 20% polyester and 80% cotton, so it feels so comfy and dry. Keep it up Nomis.

Rating for this product: 5 January 9, 2009

This jacket is very nice, just like sessions apparel. The site says that the waterproofing is a little higher than years past, which is a definite plus. It also does not have a storm skirt or surround sound hood, but the BUILD IN MITTINS totally make up for it. and make good conversation starters if your that desperate...

Nice goggles, they are very comfy compared to other cheaper brands. they do fog up in extreme conditions but a little ani-fog spray does the trick, so you can land yours.

I have had these shoes for two and half years and amazingly they are still holding up! I don't street skate, but i longboard everyday and when slidding, shoes can get pretty messed up. But the triple stitched toes have held up and he vulc has not come apart at all like many vans shoes i've purchased. these shoes are so durable and have sick style; i would recommend them to anyone.
