Icebreaker Helix Vest - Womens
Trying it on upon arrival I thought it might be a bit snug through the chest (though I'm not terribly well endowed), but the non-insulated knit wool stretch panels at the sides offer plenty of give while still making for a sleek, warmth-trapping fit. The internal pocket is laughably small, but will do for an mp3 player or small phone and has a cord management pass-though with a loop at the collar. The hand pockets are lined with warm, soft knit wool and are capable of holding small items plus my substantial hands comfortably. Reflective details at the hem and zipper pull loops are a nice touch, and the whole package is attractive enough for town while being technical enough for the woods. Just wish it collapsed into its own pocket for storage, but you can't have everything.

Cozy, attractive & customary Icebreaker quality
Written on Mar 27, 2015
Sharp, vivid colours; wonderful fabric feel; functional if not terribly flattering hood; very cozy fold-over mitts. Definitely runs small - I'm usually a small or medium in IB but a large in this was perfect for arm length & body width (equates to about a size 10).

Easton Torrent 2P - 2 Person, 4 Season Tent
Bomber construction yet light enough to sport along in the backcountry. Good venting options, useful-sized vestibules, and plenty of room for 2 even with winter gear. Syclone poles seem very tough and the included stakes are better than average, though you'll have to purchase snow stakes or anchors separately for deep winter use.

Evernew Titanium Stacking Set
An ideal size for making a meal for one person, this lightweight but highly durable set can serve all of your simple cooking & eating needs. Bonus: it even works with the Jetboil french press insert! I store the french press insert (broken down), a 110g butane/propane gas cartridge, with my Olicamp Kinetic stove and the MSR dish brush inside the pot, which nests nicely inside the mug even with the Snow Peak hotlips on it. I add a titanium spork and a lightweight folding cartridge stand inside the included mesh stuff sack and voila! Everything I need for any meal, all contained in less than 1L of space at a laughably small weight. Go on - treat yourself!
