Worked as demanded

Written on Jul 30, 2015

Terrific layer for me--light, and when coupled with rain pants, hit my sweet spot for campsite insulation. I wore them alone some, and they did get a few snags quickly, though no tearing.

Do everything I ask of them

Written on Jul 30, 2015

I used these pants on a recent multi day trip. Though I didn't hike in them--no need, really, as I prefer upper layers to keep me warm when hiking and running--they were a welcome layer in camp. I used them a couple of time over shorts against mosquitoes, and over long johns in the cold mornings. Especially in the summer (and even at 11,000 feet) they were the atomic bomb of insulation, along with my rain jacket. They pack small, and appear to be pretty water proof (I never used them in the rain).

Tore at the seams on first wearing

Written on Jul 30, 2015

I wore these gloves in a several hour drenching rain on a recent backpacking trip. They kept my hands warm enough, but two of the seams between fingers tore open when I took them off. They were very wet, for sure, and I agree with a previous reviewer who warned about sizing (though my usual mediums were too small), but they did not stand up very long to wear--again, four or five hours.
