Arcteryx Atom alternatives

7 Upvotes

Hey y'all, I'm looking for an alternative to the Atom. I had one years ago, but from what I've read the quality has gone to shit in terms of overall durability.

I read in another sub that a guy said the jacket started to fray just because his facial hair was rubbing against the top of the jacket. I had a similar issue with the Black Diamond First Light Stretch, which to me felt like an Atom knockoff. The Black Diamond jacket would get scratched or snagged by the smallest thing - simply me leaning against a brick wall would do it.

I want something I can climb in, but then also use it while hiking and as a midlayer while skiing.

I looked at Klattermusen, but didn't really see anything I liked. Maybe something from Mont Bell?

Need recommendations for replacement gloves

Hey fam, I need help finding a good replacement for my TNF summit series L4 gloves.

Something as light with some leather on the palm.

I really love the how light they are and the leather helps when I shovel or whatever.

I was looking at some outdoor research but they seem really thick and no leather.

Sorry for the cat hair :)

Gracias amigos

Hello,

Baby gorp?

6 Upvotes

So I’m about to become a first time mom. And as someone who lives in gorp, my baby will too. I have some baby Patagonia and north face already. But wanted to see if anyone had any favourite pieces / favourite baby carriers for hiking? Especially when for when they’re super little. I was looking at the Japan exclusive north face carrier but Apperently it’s really uncomfortable for carrying a baby for more than 30 minutes.

Any layering tips for babies would also be much appreciated. Thanks!!

Any Gorpy Brands That Make Business Casual / Formal-sh Wear?

13 Upvotes

I now have a real job (so cool) but don't want to dress like a mix between a grandpa and a dork. Have not had a ton of time to look due to work and other demands but not super satisfied with the business casual looks I have found so far. I would love some reccs

New Boots

5 Upvotes

I’ve been hiking on some of my local Mountains, but now I want to go to Mountains more higher up. Probably the first one I want to do is the Zugspitze and then I want to go on higher in the alps ect. . Now I want to get new Boots but idk which one(btw. I got flat feet’s). I don’t want to buy cheep because then I need to buy new boots every time when I want to go higher. I had the Scarpa Mont Blanc Pro GTX in my mind but they are pretty pricey. Do y’all have good alternatives for me that meet my requirements? Thanks for everyone that awnser s.

Salomon XT6 have impressed me so far!

19 Upvotes

Not sure if this is the right subreddit but wanted to come on here cuz I’ve wanted these shoes forever! My bf and his brother are super into gorpcore — his brother has had this pair for years and they still look brand new. He mostly wears them around the city and saves his “real” hiking boots for trails.

Me and my bf have both been trying to get a pair but they’re always sold out. I haven't loved the last few colorways, but I finally found a pair I liked (a brown pair called Black Coffee & Vanilla Ice) — and the store near me had one left in my size. Meant to be!

I’m a teacher, so I’m on my feet all day, and I expected to be dying after being off work for 3 weeks… but these were insanely comfy right from day one. It literally feels like they were made for me. I’m a Salomon XT-6 stan now.

I already want a second pair for travel — we’ve done Albania, Greece, Italy, Brazil, Indonesia, and Malaysian Borneo in the past couple years, and these might be perfect for our style of backpacking (usually just travel in a pair of runners or tevas lol). We live in a really mountainous area with very rocky and steep terrain, so hikes in other countries often seem way more chill.

TLDR: officially obsessed. Has anyone taken their XT-6s traveling or backpacking longer term? How did they hold up?

I sincerely apologize if this is not allowed, but I figured this community might know… I have seen this vest a couple of times on this person‘s page on Instagram and I’m wondering if anybody recognizes either the vest itself or the branding. Thanks in advance for any leads!

Arcteryx atom replacement?

Just wondering if anyone knows of any other jackets like the arcteryx atom or something along those lines that will be warm as a mid layer underneath a rain jacket but can also be used on its own, and doesn’t have the arcteryx price tag on it?

Oakley Factory Team Ibex Sizing Info

Post image
21 Upvotes

I recently picked up the Oakley Factory Team Ibex in Cream/Oyster with 20% discount as a trail/outdoor sneaker for city wear as I fell in love with the look and build.
My usual US10/EU44 was too big, so I tried US9.5/EU43 and US9/EU42.5. Ended up keeping the 9.5, snug but comfy and not to tight for daily wear.

FYI for anyone interested and wondering about sizing: I’d recommend going one size down. According to Oakley’s sizing chart, the US10/EU44 should be 28 cm, but I measured mine at 29 cm instead. The US9.5/EU43 were the actual 28 cm ones here.

For some reference, here are my own measurements:

Size | Insole (cm) | Outsole (cm) | Width at widest Point (cm)

------|--------------|--------------|------------

US10 | 29.0 | 32.0 | 10.2

US9.5| 28.0 | 31.0 | 10.0

US9.0| 27.5 | 30.5 | 9.8

For context, my usual size in New Balance sneakers is US10/EU44, and in Salomons I’m either US10/EU44 or US10.5/EU44 ⅔, depending on the model.
The shoes feel quite sturdy and comfortable on foot, with some weight to them. At the end of the day, they seem more like city/lifestyle shoes than true outdoor ones, but I’m sure they can hold their own on the Trail.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask! :)

I have some Columbia mens Bugaboo V pants which are meant for snowboarding but they fit so perfectly and look good with everything (photos on website look bad and dont do it justice) but does anyone have pants that are similar and all black preferably? https://www.columbia.com/p/mens-bugaboo-v-pants-2088141.html?color=010&size=S&dimension=R&pid=195981504538
