Wow. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would review underwear - but these deserve a shout-out. Weary of traveling with endless pairs of plain cotton underwear that chafed, rode up, trapped heat, and never dried out after washing overnight, I invested in two pairs of these after reading some reviews. Let me tell you: these are a better investment than most of those in your mutual fund. They were cool, soft, and virtually undetectable - I literally forgot I was wearing them. They never, ever rode up. The fit is perfect. And, when washed, they dry out in a matter of hours. I took two pair on a 8-day trip to Central America. I could have gotten away with just bringing the pair I showed up in. For anyone who travels, hikes, camps, paddles - this is the only underwear to have.

I brought this shirt to Belize to use during rainforest hikes - full coverage is essential. While I was there, I also ended up using it as a rashguard while snorkeling. Not only is this shirt comfortable and breathable in high, humid temperatures, it protected my skin against several days of tropical sun while immersed in the ocean. It washes easily. It dries quickly in 80%+ humidity. It provides a great barrier against biting insects. I cannot imagine a better-thought-out, more versatile shirt - and one that has those wonderful thumb-holes, to boot. This shirt will go with me everywhere.

I needed a small, lightweight, affordable headlamp to replace my old Black Diamond. I decided to stick with the company, as they have proven to me that they put out a solid product. They did not let me down with the Gizmo: the band is narrow, comfortable, and does not slip from even the sweatiest head; the light output is bright enough to illuminate campsites and cave passageways; it stood up to late-night river stomping on gravel bars. The dimmer feature was a great plus when it was time to settle down by the campfire with a good book. I could not ask for a better lamp.

I recently returned from a canoeing, camping, and caving trip deep in the Ozarks in Missouri. It is July - this is a crazy month for intense heat, humidity, and bugs in this part of the nation. These pants truly withstood the tests that this trip put them under. They were, in turn, soaking wet, covered with DEET, and stretched to the max by cave passageways requiring gymnastic feats to squeeze through. They dried within a few hours, even in high humidity. They did not stain, despite stubborn campfires and belly-crawls. I found that I was cooler and more comfortable in them than a pair of shorts that I brought along. At the end of the day, their comfort level was so high that I even wanted to sleep in them (but didn't - they needed to be washed out daily given the circumstances). I cannot believe that such a perfect pair of pants exist - and that I am fortunate enough to own them :).

I took a gamble on this bra. I understood that the specs said it was for A-B cup sizes. I spoke with a rep about it. I read the reviews. I am a full D cup, and REALLY wanted this bra to work for me: I am heading to Belize in a month, and desperately needed a comfy, breathable bra to wear. One without underwires or sweat-trapping material. As most full-busted women can attest, these types of bras are nearly impossible to find, despite all of the interesting new-fangled fabric technology. I loved how this bra is nearly all mesh, wireless, and light. However, it just doesn't work for women above the A-B cup - just as the specs say. Lucky are those who can wear this great bra!
