I love this workout shirt. It's not clingy in the stomach, which is great since I'm trying to flatten my tummy at the gym. Super light weight and comfortable. Great for showing off your arms too!

Buy Badger Sportswear Women's B-Dry Sleeveless Performance Tee
This is my go to tee for exercise class. It is light and not at all clingy. It does not fit snug which is always a plus when you are working out. Good value for the money. I have pink and black and will be getting more.

I just received this sweater and it exceeded my expectations especially considering the low price. It is fairly soft (not cashmere, of course, but nice) and well made. I am 5'6", 115 lbs and the XS fits very well. I think it will be one of my go-to fall sweaters!

I love this sweater, and it has become my new favorite (excluding the ones I knit for myself of course). The fit is perfect, and it is extremely comfortable and cosy. It is also nice and warm and I can comfortably wear it at work with just a cami underneath. The only slight down side is the front pocket (it is a pouch) makes it look a little more casual than I would like, though it is probably not very noticeable. The first one I received had a large orange stain on the collar, but exchanging it was really easy and free and I had a new one in two days (I have Prime). So glad I decided to try exchanging it rather than returning since it is a great sweater!Honest reviews on Royal Robbins Women's Helium Pullover Sweater
I love the Royal Robbin brand. A Pullover Sweater does not describe the intricacy of the weave and style. My daughter suggested it as a gift (I love to send Prime Gifts from Amazon) and I liked it so much that I used multiple shipping and bought 2. I am one of the recipients and absolutely LOVE this sweater. Very attractive and fits loosely but true to size.Saturday, November 8, 2014

Love the graphic on the back, I also love the simple prAna logo on the front. The fit is athletic, yet relaxed. prAna always makes quality products and the polyester/cotton blend is awesome. Feels just like cotton, but when I climb or workout, it doesn't get drenched in sweat. Looks good! Small is great for me at 167cm and 60kg.

Review of Marmot Girl's Guides Down Hoody
Fit well and my niece has a little tummy. Its cute and the color wanted because not many people have a bright green coat so we can always pick her out of the crowd. The only thing holding it back from a five star is that the zipper is a bit sticky and gets caught. We don't want her to rush, yank it up and break it.

I purchased these snow pants for my 12 year old son, who is fitting into adult-sized clothing now. Most winters I have gone through 2 and even 3 pairs of cheapie nylon snowpants for him, and they have been disappointing they get soaking wet, shred easily, hardware breaks after a few uses. So while I was hesitant to pay $150 for snowpants, I had to contrast that with the $90 per winter (along with the inconvenience of going to the store, finding the right size, etc.) that I was already spending.My son is currently 5'6" and about 140 pounds. These snowpants are a bit long for him, but the waist is very adjustable, so if they hold up I am certain they will last through 3 winters, possibly more. The Large fits easily over his jeans and can still be adjusted to fit well.
Very very nicely constructed. Waterproof, which is a big deal for me, having dealt with so many sopping-wet pairs of snowpants over the years. Reinforced knees, heavy-duty outer material that won't split open at the least little bit of rough outdoor use. For as warm as they are, they aren't too bulky, using Columbia's reflective Omni-Heat surface to reflect body heat back to the wearer while allowing moisture to escape. Inner thighs have zippered vents to cool down if needed. Well constructed and convenient pockets either zippered, or double-rolled-and-velcro'd.
I will update after this first winter to review after having some use. I bought these to wear with the Columbia Sportswear Men's Lhotse Mountain II Interchange Tall Jacket which also has the Omni-Heat lining.

I stayed warm and dry the entire weekend. It is great to find snow pants for larger and taller people.Honest reviews on Columbia Men's Bugaboo Tech II Pant
Well let's see. I live in Minnesota where it frequently gets to temps that are -20*F (-40*F with the wind chills) often. I am a person who does not run cold meaning I usually don't have to overdo how many layers I am wearing. On this particular day the temp had gone down to -14*F with a 10MPH wind (-25*F wind-chill). I had on a merino wool base layer, a heavy and thick Polly fleece lined sweat pant, and these bad boys on over all that. I went out for a regular walk and I have to say I was a bit disappointed that they didn't do a better job insulating the heat. My legs where just on the verge of being cold. They were ok but I could tell that if I was out longer I would have started to feel cold. The quality looks great, the fit was nice. I am just not sure that this Omni heat thing really works. It almost feels like it makes it colder. I would say if your exposure is anything under -5*F with these you will most likely be cold. That is if you outside for more than 20 minutes. If you will be in temps -5*F or higher than these would work perfectly for you. Just depends on what you are doing. If you are standing still like ice fishing then you might feel the cold sooner. Keep in mind it was -29*F with the wind chill when I wore these and they were on the cusp of starting to be cold.On a side note I also have a Columbia LiMen's Lhotse Mountain™ II Interchange Jacket which I also purchased and I was toasty in that. I did also pick up a pair of the Columbia interchange gloves with the Omni heat. Those really suck even with the extra set of lining gloves inside my fingers were freezing.

Dye Tactical MOLLE GTG Vest Reviews
I am mostly a woodsball/scenario player and I had previously been skeptical of Dye producing products for that market. They always seemed much more popular in airball and tournament play. Recently, though, Dye tactical has been putting out some really great stuff and the GTG vest is probably the most well designed and well thought out vest for a scenario game I have seen. Here are my thoughts on what I look for in a vest, and how the Dye GTG stacks up:
Sizing 9/10: So, I'm a pretty big guy (both tall and wide) and I was skeptical of a vest that is one size fits all. Others, like the RAP4 I also own, have at least a couple sizes. The side straps and shoulder straps on this vest, though, are adjustable to a wide range, and even with my large frame it fits like a glove. The only complaint I have is that the vest feels a bit short (I'm 6'1"). Perhaps a "tall" size would be nice, but it isn't a major problem by any means. Still fits very well and very comfortable
Durability 10/10: I want a vest that is light and strong. I've seen others comment that the Dye vest is so light it feels flimsy, but I think people feel how light it is and don't have faith that it is actually strong. The material is very strong even though it is so light, which I see as a good thing. If heavier makes you feel better, just load it up with some molle attachements and pod packs and you'll feel that weight.
Functionality 10/10: Probably the thing I appreciate most about this vest, and many of the newer Dye products I have recently tried, is how much functionality they have. Dye seems to think through every single thing on their products down to the stiching, and it really shows. First, the pod packs on the back is a 3+4, meaning it has 3 main pockets, and elastic to hold 4 additional pods between. The tank pouch is large enough to hold my Ninja 90ci tank, but has multiple straps to secure a much smaller tank. On the front you have a larger pouch which fits my radio if I'm using it in a scenario game and has map and ID holders on the front. There is an id holder on the shoulder for game cards if needed as well. The smaller pouch below is useful for smoke grenades, and the dump bag on the side was an incredible addition by Dye that makes dumping used pods in the middle of a game so much easier. You have a huge compartment on the back for a water bladder with a hole to thread the tube through on the back. Then the rest of the vest is molle with all sorts of attachments you can buy from Dye. I have a couple pod and clip holders as well as grenade pouches so I can adjust to whatever game I'm playing. If you want to run heavy, you can easily run three pod or clip pouches on the right and a grenade pouch on the side, or use no molle and run light. It is an extremely adaptable system. Lots of other little touches too like belt loops, velcro for patches, loops for attaching a sling, etc.
I really think this vest is the best I have seen on the market for the well thought out design. Highly recommended.
Edit (5/31): As I was re-reading the product description I thought I would point out that Dye has an earlier version of this vest and DyeCam (the camo pattern) Many paintball sites will list the products as "2.0" or "2013 dye cam." I got this on amazon from WavetoGo, and the molle pouches on Amazon as well from various paintball suppliers. I received the 2013 version of everything in case others were wondering, but there are older versions on Amazon (mostly of the molle attachements) as well. Also, for those who might like the vest but not want to buy all Dye clothing (though that is pretty well designed as well) Dyecam tends to be closest to a multicam pattern I think. In case you want to look at other clothing options, you aren't necessarily locked into buying all Dye products just because it is in Dye's own camo pattern.
Update (8/12/13): Thought I would write a quick update now that I've been playing with this vest for a couple months. I have played with this vest in 5 games now over the summer and I will say, I am still very happy with it. I have another pod pack for warm days as I was afraid it would be too warm, but I've actually used the vest all summer. I haven't played above 90 degrees, but I played an all day big game in 85 degree heat and did pretty well. The vest has had no durability problems. Nothing has broken. My favorite part is still the dump pouch which comes in extremely handy when I'm defending a position and running through lots of ammo quickly. I can easily reload and just drop my pod in the pouch instead of either putting it back in its slot, or dropping it on the ground and risking losing it. Still highly recommended.

I have had a pair of LIG pajama pants for five years that just recently had to be retired. They were light blue with coffee cups...ANYWAY, they were a lot heavier than this pair. I'm a little bummed since these are not as warm as my old ones, but since these have snowflakes all over them they wouldn't be ideal for Spring & Summer wear. They are listed as flannel, but I'd say just barely. They ARE soft and I'm sure they'll get even softer.

Cheap Time To Run Men's Favourite Short Sleeve Running T Shirt Top
...but these shirts are fantastic. I purchased a short sleeve one and a long sleeve one and they are very comfortable, have a great fit, and do a pretty good job at staying fairly dry during runs. I like them better than more expensive Nike and Northface shirts that I own and they come at a much cheaper price. I will definitely be buying more.
The fit of these shirts is perfect. So may cheap tech shirts are too tight in the shoulders and chest but these were formed perfectly. The material, at first glance, looked a tad rough. But upon trying the shirts on, I felt quite comfortable.
So I wouldn't hesitate to keep going with Time to Run's running clothes again. I'm very happy.

Great cycling cap that can be worn stand alone or under a mountain bike helmet. I use it daily for both. Took me a little getting use to but now I want to only wear cycling caps. Good quality and I just throw it in the wash with a load of darks (at least once a week) and it comes out smelling oh-so-clean and hold the form of the brim very well.

Bought it for my kitchen job. Breathes great and super comfortable (itchy along the elastic band, but that's no biggie). The bill's right around military cap length. Machine washed once and did well on cold with full load with the rest of my blacks (let hat air dry over night). If I didn't coat it in flour nightly, I'd probably wear it as my casual wear.Thursday, June 19, 2014
