Five Ten Baron Shoes

December 10, 2012

Are these men's shoes or unisex. How do you convert the sizes to a women's length?

No Stretch, BIG Chamois but Beautiful Short

Luna Sports Clothing Moon Buggy Short - Women's

Luna Sports Clothing Moon Buggy Short - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 April 21, 2012

I ordered th Blue which is beautiful and well-made. The material is kind of a peach skin on the outside and silky taffeta on the inside.

Contrary to what is written in description I find that there is NO stretch in this fabric. If you sew, this is called the bias. There is NONE. Also because there is double top-stitching it also limits the "give" around the bottom of the hem.

I am short and curvey and on the heavy side. I have been able to wear other Luna pants in a 14 in a capri. I ordered this in an XL but it is too big in the waist even with the pull tabs.

The Chamois is BIG and limits the room you have to stretch. Again there is no give in the inseam which makes it short-waisted unless you wear them low on your hips. They could have made the seams wider and cut them on the curve to give a better stretch but the seam is too small to do this.

I got these at a good enough price that I will exchange them for a smaller size and just wear as a regular short.

Runs Large

Mountain Hardwear Tonga Knit Skirt - Women's

Mountain Hardwear Tonga Knit Skirt - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 April 21, 2012

Runs a size large unless it shrinks (I didn't wash it). I ordered in the Reef which is sort of between green and blue. It reminds me of OR scrubs. I am short and on the curvey/heavier side and find all the stitching a bit attention-getting in the wrong areas but not a deal braker. This is made very well with a flat and curved waist. There is some stretch but no way to make it smaller (no draw string, etc.) I will return for a smaller size and different color.

Terry Needs to Improve "Middle" Size Zone

Terry Bicycles Tailwind - Women's

Terry Bicycles Tailwind - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 April 13, 2012

Beautiful bike and very well made with nice components. I ordered the 42x52 which felt a little small so had to return it. Unfortunately, I fall in between the 42x52 and 48x52 sizes being only about 5'1".

Department of Goods was very courteous about the return.
You might want to take a picture of the bike on the cardboard insert before unpacking. It took me quite a while to get it positioned on the packaging so it would fit properly and be secured like it was sent. I was sad it didn't work out.

Rating for this product: 2 March 27, 2012

This is a strange fit. It is very long in the torso length and sleeves and seems to run a bit small in the chest. The "turk blue" is more the color of old OR scrubs. I am returning.

Terry Bicycles Symmetry - Women's

March 25, 2012

You first must determine how much room you need over the top tube to be able to stradle the bar. It's recommended you have at least a couple of inches standing over the bar in you gear. The way to determine your standover is to find out your inseam. There are many web pages that talk about how to find a fit. Try this web page to get started: http://www.coloradocyclist.com/bikefit#inseam-b

I have two pair of these and they are my absolute favorite gloves. The fit and padding are better than the more expensive LG alternative. You can't go wrong with these.

Thumb Hole Too Small - order UP!

Louis Garneau 12c Air Gel Women's Gloves

Rating for this product: 2 March 21, 2012

I have several pairs of gloves from Louis Garneau and this was my least favorite. The thumbhole has no "give" and is very difficult to remove. Also the seam over the back of the hand is very irritating when you bend you hand into a fist because it runs small. I returned and got the less expensive LG "carbon" pair that I have in another color that is really comfortable.

Never could get these to stay in my ears. I tried all fours sets of buds and nothing would hold them securely in place. I had purchased, at a recommendation of a friend, but was disappointed so sent them back to whiskey militia.

Not SO light but good quality

THE Industries F-1 Featherlite Back Pack

THE Industries F-1 Featherlite Back Pack

Rating for this product: 4 January 22, 2012

I was thinking this was light enough for me to use mountain biking with a reservoir and some light gear but it is too big and bulky for me. I am only 5'1" and female. It is very well made and I have a large gear bag that is made by the same company that I love. I returned this piece even though I really think it is a good buy. Would be great for a student, has a lap top area for storage.

Smell BAD!!

Lake MX165 Bike Shoe - Women's

Lake MX165 Bike Shoe - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 November 17, 2011

These shoes have a bad, almost toxic, smell to them. So much so that I had to put the shoe, box and packing materials outside to air out. This has happened twice with this shoe.

I have tried two sizes and one was too little and the other too big. I think they run smaller than the Shimano brand. Also, not evident from the description,these shoes have a laced area like a tennis shoe under the flap which is under the three straps. I find this a litte cumbersome. They do have enclosed optional mudstuds which is nice although I could not get the ones on the right shoe to screw in correctly.

Descente Coldout Cycle Glove

October 22, 2011

There is a sizing chart link under the drop-down "select options" but this one does not have a glove measurement. Try finding another glove in the same brand online and check their sizing chart. I think, if in doubt , it's always better to order up.

I liked the design on the black glove so I ordered them. The screen work on them in white is not as clear and as good a quality as I had hoped. They also run small at least one size so order up.

I wear a 7.5 - 8 in tennis shoes and ended up liking the fit of a 39 better. It depends also on what kind of socks you like to wear and how you like your shoes to fit. I really love these shoes.

Rating for this product: 3 September 28, 2011

I had purchased another Zoot sandal that had the same type base but with a wide mesh top across my foot with I love. These have a rough ribbon between the toes and kind of scratch where the ribbon is attached on the sides.They also seem to run smaller than the other version so I would order up a size.

If you want a set that matches you will have to order two sets. One of the arms has the round print but the other is solid with the small Luna logo of a crescent moon. They fit a bit small I think around the bicep but I do have some so you might not have have that issue.

Long and low

Castelli Incognito Wind Tight - Women's

Castelli Incognito Wind Tight - Women's

Rating for this product: 2 September 22, 2011

I wear a L/XL in regular shorts. Ordered the XL and they were so long that I almost tripped on them but I am short. The material, workmanship is good but the overall design is weird with a normal back fit and a very low, wide band in the front that reminds me of maternity wear. I like things to fit on my waist. If you are at least average height and don't mind the low front then you might like them. Definitely going back!

Nice fit but stiff.

The North Face Cringe Jacket - Women's

Rating for this product: 3 September 22, 2011

Ordered XL and true to fit with nice workmanship and detail. You really need a road map to find all of the hidden features. The fabric was a little disappointing in that it is somewhat stiff and reminds me of a tarp texture. Not sure it will be that easy to cycle with and store or worth the $89 I paid for it. Probably with keep it.

I ordered in XL and chest is still very snug but I am curvey. Overall a longer fit and sleeves that have extra length. Fabric is heavier which I like for winter. Love the aqua but wish it truely was a "regular fit" so I wouldn't feel smashed.

Lighter than expected

Pearl Izumi Superstar Women's Knickers

Pearl Izumi Superstar Women's Knickers

Rating for this product: 3 September 22, 2011

True to size or runs large. Fabric is lighter and less support than I wanted and expected for a "low temperature" knicker. Will use more as a transition season than winter bottom. I always like a draw string on wider waste bands to help with the ups and downs of tummy changes but this one doesn't have it. Price a little high for what you get.

Louis Garneau Newtown Half-Zip Jersey - Short-Sleeve - Women's

Louis Garneau Newtown Half-Zip Jersey - Short-Sleeve - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 September 22, 2011

Runs true to size or a little larger. Has a longer overall fit that covers my bum and tummy. Sleeves are also longer and fall just above my elbow but I am short. The yellow is more like a neon radiator fluid yellow/green. It is fine especially if you want to be seen but probably won't be my favorite. Overall, good price for what you get.
