Nothing fancy here, just a nice pair of shorts! The fit is true to size and the length is right at my knees, not too long and not too short. These are very comfortable and get my recommendation.

This dry bag does its job of keeping your stuff dry. It's not as thick as other ones that I've used but seems durable enough. The straps on it come in handy when portaging as they free up your arms to use. I was able to fit my 2P tent, sleeping bag, pillow and some fishing gear into the 70L bag and still had a little left over room.

This rod is fun to use! Coming from and entry level rod, I was definitely able to notice the difference in weight and the control that this rod provided. When matched with a lightweight reel, this rod makes an impressive set up.

This hat is awesome! I'm not saying I'd wear it out on town but if your out in the sun for a prolonged period of time it will make your experience much more enjoyable. The hat is unique in that you can secure the flaps close to your face so you are protecting your cheeks as well as the back of your neck. Additionally, you can remove the flap entirely so that it functions like a normal cap. This hat dries easily and is quite comfortable to wear. I wore it every day during a recent raft trip. Highly recommended if you want to limit your sun exposure!

Umpqua seems to make decent flies. Sometimes you get one that falls apart quickly but for the most part I'm happy with them.

Great towel! When space is a concern and you're around water this becomes an important item. Leave it in the car and you'll always have a way to clean those dog's up before they get in.

This PFD gives you plenty of mobility and buoyancy. I'm happy with it!

Nothing bad to say about this. This headlamp is simple, small and provides a nice amount of light for whatever you you may need it for. Definitely recommend it!

Great bottle for water or whatever you want to put in it. Love it and use it all the time!

Smaller than I expected but puts out a surprising amount of light. Nice to have in a tent because it disperses light evenly as opposed to the directional output of a headlamp. No more blinding your tent-mate with the headlamp as you fumble around for your toothbrush.

High quality wading boots. Keep my feet comfortable when I'm in my waders. Comes with metal studs.

Got these for my girlfriend and she loves them! Says they are comfortable and lighter than Chacos.

This shirt is made of a quick-drying material and is nice when you want the coverage of long sleeves without completely overheating. Similar shirts seem to have a little better ventilation but at the expense of being really baggy. This shirt is a little more trim. I can not attest to the wrinkle-resistant claim. My shirt has wrinkles but maybe that will go away after it is washed.

Seems to fit my 50lb lab well. Looking forward to seeing how the dog likes wearing it in the water!

Lightweight shorts. The material is like that of board shorts but they look like more like street shorts. They have mesh pockets and are very comfortable however, they are not really what I was looking for. It is also worth noting that I could envision the white shorts being a bit see through when wet.

These waders are definitely a bit of an investment but they are worth it. I've had a great experience with Patagonia's warranty policy. Waders take their share of abuse and so the lifetime warranty offsets the price some in my opinion. The waders are very comfortable and I am able to fish all day in cold winter waters with just a little layering underneath. One thing that I would like to mention in regard to sizing is that they have the ability to adjust quite a bit to different body shapes/sizes. I am 5'8'' , 160 lbs and normally M or S equipment fits well. These waders seem to be designed for thicker body types than mine (following the trend in size inflation?) as the XS Reg fit perfectly.

While this pad is a bit of a luxury, it certainly makes the activity known as sitting more comfortable. You may think you don't need it but when you find yourself looking for a spot to sit and there is only rocks or a hard bleacher seat around, you'll definitely be glad you brought it. It packs up small and also provides great lumbar support while driving.

These socks are really comfortable and supportive. They really seem to allow your feet to breath. Definitely noticeable after wearing regular cotton socks.

Snug yet comfortable beanie that is perfect for aerobic activity and or mild conditions. Packs up very small so you can easily stuff it in any pocket if you do start to overheat.

Great sleeping pad! Good balance between size and comfort. I would definitely recommend it for the typical backpacker who likes to keep their weight down but also likes to sleep comfortably. It seems very durable, has a lifetime warranty and fits perfectly with the 20 in Therm-a-Rest trekker chair (which I would also recommend). I do think the stuff sack should be included though. Overall, it's a good buy.
