no more blister

Written on Jan 15, 2019

I usually develop blisters in the big toes and small toes after long distant hikes (>20 miles). After reading the reviews about how to prevent blisters I decided to give Injinji socks a try. It works well for me. have run a 100 km race in it and completely blister-free. and I wore them for a recent winter rim-2-rim-2-rim in the grand canyon. It was a three-day thru-hike. didn't even take them off for 3 days. no blister, good cushioning and kept my feet warm and dry. These socks have been my go to gear for long distant hike and trail run.

light weight solid trekking pole

Written on Nov 04, 2018

I have used the Distance FLZ poles for several long distant hikes and trail running. They are light weight yet reliable. In the very beginning I had difficulty reading the instructions about how to open and collapse the poles. needed to find a video demonstration. But when you know the trick you can quickly open and collapse them on the run. The only drawback is the edge of new straps are sharp that cut into my hands and I have to wear gloves. It gets better after several uses.

well made product

Arc'Teryx has never disappointed me. This is another good quality product. I am glad I ordered it from Campsaver. good price and arrived quickly. The fabric is light weight and feels smooth and silky. Feeling comfortable in it for a 30 mile run in a hot summer day, no chafing.

well made product

I ordered one 450ml and one 300 ml double wall seppou stacking mug. good quality and light weight. I use the 450 ml as a bowl for eating and the 300 ml for drinking while camping. the double wall is insulated so my hands will not be hurt from the hot meals and drinks. My husband prefers mugs with handles. For single wall mug, yes. But for double wall insulated mugs handle-less work well since our hands will not be hurt anyway. and the snow peak products are well made and look nice.

does the job

I ordered a 35L Sealline Black Canyon Pack for a recently overnight trip to Mount Kinabalu at Sabah, Malaysia. The weather is quite unpredictable in the mountain and rainfall is known to be frequent. We are so happy we bring this water proof bag with us. It is big enough for extra layers and gears for overnight trip of two people. We got caught in the rain on the way back and our gear and clothes were safe and dry in the sealline dry pack. The reason I give 4 stars is the pack is a big heavy for me and not so comfortable for a long day hike.

Light weight ans spacious

Written on Jul 12, 2018

I just received this tent and had only tried to set it up at home. It is lightweight and easy to set up. I did not need a instruction to guide the step. simple and easy. The interior is spacious, big enough for 2 person. me is 5'5" and my partner is 6'3". still have enough space for gear storage. Have not yet try to use it outdoor. not able to comment how it works esp. in harsh conditions like heavy rain and strong wind. The reason I give 4 stars is that the footprint is not available. and the product spec does not have the size of the footprint that i was not able to buy one until I got this product and measured the size after I set it up.

light weight fast dry material

Echo Tee from Outdoor research is my favor tee for summer activities. I bought several short sleeve tee in different colors. This is my first time to try the long sleeve tee. I love the light weight, fast dry material and very comfortable to wear on. The long sleeve version adds sun protection for arms so I do not need to wear extra arm protection sleeve. I also used it as base layer for hiking during cooler days. It is so light weight that is perfect for ultra light backpacking

good for summer hiking

It was my first time to order pants online and luckily this product runs true to the size. I am 5'5'' and 140lb. I ordered size 8 and it fits perfectly. The fabric is light weight and stretchy and feels soft and comfortable. it dries quickly as well. It is good for ultra light backpacking in summer. The only downside is the color is not exactly as advertised. I ordered a green one. It is a bit darker and not as sharp and bright as shown in the webpage.

stylish and functional

Love this jacket very much! It is very comfortable and stretches well with movement. looks slim and stylish. High quality construction like other Mammut products. turn out I bought a men's ultimate hoody for my husband as well.
