NEMO Equipment Inc. Losi 2P Tent: 2-Person 3-Season

Rating for this product: 3 February 26, 2012

Nice tent with some pretty clever engineering. Used in North Georgia during high winds and rain and the tent is remarkably stable. The only down side is that the tent is small. Althought he dimensions say the floor space is 86x54, in reality it is more like 78x40. This is manageable for regular length pads, but my 2 Big Agnes long pads reach end to end and side to side with literlly no room to spare. Like a lot of 2p tents, this is really a great one person tent if you want to keep anything inside with you.

Can't say enough about these pads. Went minimalist for years until trying this and now wonder what in the world I was thinking.

Big Agnes Encampment Sleeping Bag: 15 Degree Climashield HL

Rating for this product: 3 May 15, 2011

Decided to give the Big Agnes system a go and figured this bag was a relatively cheap way to start. Love they system, the bag was of a nice quality, though it is nowhere near 15 degrees...was cold at around 25 degrees in the N.Georgia mountains (and yes, I was using the insulated BA pad). The stuff size would be manageable at 15 degrees but at 25 degrees I'm not so sure. Probably best for car camping.

Nice shoe, especially if this is the style you wear to work (would be pretty versatile). "Waterproof" is a stretch but they are certainly water resistant. Tread is awesome and they seem to run a touch wide.

really like the socks, though I thought they would both be black (didn't realize one would be white). Have been nice for running/hiking and I like the cut on the heel/achilles.

Rating for this product: 4 January 28, 2011

Based on reviews I bought these in a 36 instead of a 34. Bad move...I was able to take them on and off without unbuttoning/zipping. So, they may run a tough small, but not much. Too bad because I picked them up on SAC and they would have been a steal had I grabbed the right size.

Has most of the basics, though nothing for wasp stings when my dog and I stumbled through a yellow jacket hive on the Jack's River trail. Picked it up on SAC but saw it cheaper at Gart/SA at regular price. Would be just as well to throw some bandaids and disinfectant in a ziploc.

Orage Jacob 2 Softshell Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 January 28, 2011

Best softshell I've ever tried on. To be clear, I bought this one for wearing around town so have not put it on the slopes, and I couldn't be more please. Long enough, simple, and doesn't say TNF on it. Would caution that it is not bulky, so while I can wear a thin sweatshirt under it, I wouldn't be able to wear this softshell as an outer layer on a really cold day.

Bought 2 of these (one blue, one grey) in the same size. The blue shirt fit great and is among my favorite for hitting the trails. The grey was cut differently and I returned it immediately. Not sure why there was a difference, but it was big.

Would be great if it were a bit smaller. Is only useful as a keychain knife but is just too big. The knife mechanism is difficult to use. Will probably just clip this to a backpack and forget about it.

Picked these up on SAC and would say they were worth the 25 or so spent. They are a very basic shoe and we'll see how they hold up (other Simple shoes have not worked out so well) but they look great and are actually surprisingly comfortable.

Rating for this product: 2 January 28, 2011

Bought these for my wife and was pretty psyched when they arrived...look good, heavy, nice quality. Unfortunately, they have a very unusual cut. Medium should have been a bit too big, if anything, but were super small. Because of the unusual cut, I don't think the large would help much.

I have a pair of Simple canvas shoes, love 'em, so thought I'd give these a try. At first look, they seemed to be solid but the stitching pulled loose after the first hour of wear. Looking closely at them I would bet the entire shoe would be in pieces with another couple hours of wear.

Plenty warm and feels like you can walk through anything while wearing them...and you can. Run large and the 2 pull-tight straps come loose in minutes, so don't plan on wearing them hiking/snowshoeing. Ideal for shoveling snow...easy on, easy off.
