What the heck happened to your t-shirts? Previously, we bought three for my husband that fit like a champ. Recently, I bought one for him in a 2XL and it shrunk down to a medium the first day. It's too short now which is really frustrating, since Backcountry made some of the only shirts that ran long enough for him. Boooooo.

The North Face Venture Jacket - Women's

March 4, 2011

I'm 6'0" and wear the medium. If you've got a long torso, you might not like this one though... the sleeves are good to go but it is ridiculously short on the body. I ended up going to a men's small (not the same colors but same quality jacket). Hope it works out!

Rating for this product: 5 March 4, 2011

I just bought my husband three more pair of these socks. He loves them and constantly raves about how warm and dry they keep his feet. He wears them in subzero temps and desert heat- apparently the wool keeps your feet warm and the top of the sock (top of your foot) ventilates. He's happy, I'm happy.

I don't dispute that these are made of super quality material and look very cool. The problem is they are not made for taller girls. TNF pants usually run a bit longer- not at all the case here. Look like yoga capris and not in a good way.

Look at The North Face Women’s Ultra 104 or 105 GTX XCR Trail Running Shoe. They are SUPER waterproof and yet still allow your feet to breathe a bit... magic? I dunno, but I use em to hike, train run (been through plenty of wet stuff), out camping- you name it. I think you'll be very happy with them.

Osprey Packs Argon 110 Backpack - 6700-7100cu in

September 22, 2009

Osprey packs can handle just about anything, it's all about what you can handle safely. This bag will easily carry a 60-80lb load, but I'd suggest lower than the lower end of that scale considering your frame and back issues. The weight will be distributed evenly and as comfortably as possible with the design of this pack, I'd just test the waters and see what you can carry comfortably and use that for a reference before going out and purchasing such a large scale item. They have it in smaller cu in sizes.

Okay, this pack just arrived. IT IS THE HERCULES, THE BOSS, THE EPITOMY of a larger scale pack. I bought it for my husband for our expedition to New Zealand next year and I have never been more proud of myself after seeing this thing. It looks amazing, it's super sturdy and the room is ridiculous. We researched for the most comfortable pack of this size out there and this was the big winner. With my 5000cu in pack and him carrying this, we are well covered for a two week run. I've heard nothing but great things about this bag, so I'll for sure post more after he's taken it out. Great price for an amazing pack.

The North Face Fortress Peak GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

September 16, 2009

I wore 'em out in Moab during late spring and my feet stayed dry and blister-free during a day-long hike (and many other after). It's safe to say these boots can handle pretty much anything. I'd just make sure you change out socks every 8-10 hours of hiking and you should be golden!

If you're long-waisted I wouldn't reccomend this vest at all. I've got a long torso and the pockets sit high on this thing and it looks goofy. Hence, the return. Ususally TNF carries longer lengths but this is one of the few exceptions.

Bought this jacket last year for a trip to Montana in early December. It not only looks super cool, but this thing is crazy warm!!! It's got tons of cool pockets (careful had a panic attack when I mistakingly put my cell in one of the backside pockets and forgot...) and the fit is perfect for skiing or lounging. I love the longer length and the skirt stays put!

I'm buying another today (already got the alba green- AWESOME color) because it's just that great. Keeps me warm (and is pretty waterproof) in the 40*ish weather. Great for hiking, running or just to wear out and about.
