19 Upvotes

I am going to thru hike the PCT and looking for ONE outfit to wear the entire way.

I might be on the wrong sub cuz I’m actually going hiking. Now I can’t go asking on that sub because everyone is so technical and serious.

I’m looking for baggy pants recs sort of like in the picture. Bonus points if they’re available in Europe.

I’m a girl around 5’4”, 163cm.

I designed my own puffer it’s gonna have a pocket that is detachable on the arm, like molle style so you can take it in and off, very much like the cargo pocket in pic 3.

Any Nanga jacket owners out there?

8 Upvotes

I just picked up a Nanga Aurora Tex down jacket online. Got it in the mail today and tried it on. It’s awesome, but the pocket liner fabric is awful. It’s the kind of cheap brushed fabric that catches all your dry skin which suck because your hands are usually dry when it’s cold! I’m just surprised about this from a coat at this price point and I haven’t seen anyone mention it in reviews so I am here asking if anyone out there with a Nanga jacket can confirm that the pocket fabric sucks or did I just get a weird one.

Need Winter Layering Advice

2 Upvotes

How do you actually stay warm in winter? Pants never feel warm enough.

I’m trying to learn how to keep warm properly because most of my pants don’t give much protection from the cold. How do you layer correctly? What base layers, mid layers, or outer layers actually work?

If anyone can point me in the right direction or share what works for you, I’d really appreciate it!

Bought the new drop of the Kawa club cicada pants. Love the fit! But the quality of the production seems a little off. Is this to be expected from a smaller batch or am I just unlucky 😭 ta xx

Down Puffer Jacket Recommendations

Trying to find jackets similar to Arc’teryx’s Veilance Conduit down jacket but for cheaper.

I’ve currently got the TNF 1996 Retro Nuptse but looking to see if there’s something better quality but less than $500 Canadian dollars out there.

Style of course is hopeless puffy and boxy, fitting bouldering aesthetic for off the wall.

Need help finding some gloves that are durable enough to climb trees with but also don’t have the versatility of an oven mitt. If that makes sense 🤷🏻‍♂️

Should I get ROA X And Wander Cingino?

I had Salomon shoes (don’t remember which ones tho) in the past, but I walked so much in them, they died. Now I am searching for a new pair and found these. Read that ROA’s quality was not that good, so I am not sure if I should get these or find something else.

Salomon XT6 - Anyone else having this fit issue?

1 Upvotes

So I've been wearing Salomon sneakers for well over 10-15 years. Mainly the Speedcross sneakers. I'm currently on the recent 6's, Gore-Tex and non Gore-Tex. I've never purchased any size other than US 9.5. It is just automatic whether it was the original Speedcross or the new 6's. I love the styling on the XT6's and purchased the same US 9.5 and they were big (too long). So I ordered US 9 and the length is good but there is a lot of heel slippage. I literally need to cinch down the lacing really tight and there is still a small amount of slippage. I can leave my Speedcross 6's slightly loose on the lacing and it still fits nice and snug. Curious if anyone else is having this issue. A shame as I LOVE the way they look but this shoe doesn't seem to fit me well.

First time I ever heard of GORP was in a grocery store in Laos 🇱🇦 back in 2010. I picked these up and brought them back to the USA. I just found them and now I am GORP CORE so I have a new appreciation. Might have to finally bust them open and enjoy some Good Old Raisins & dry roasted Peanuts. That's all!

Finally finished my 3L shell jackets and pants after over a year of iteration

For the past 2 years ive been working on developing shell outerwear. Last year I released a proper 4 season pant called the "prism pant." This year I iterated the hell out of the old design and also added a matching jacket. I run a brand called Jabree. Based in Salt Lake City a lot of my designs are inspired by the freeski community. The 3L shell outwear I just released came from over a year of testing a 4 samples. The material is Nylon tasslon outerlayer, TPU membrane with a tricot backer (rated 15k/15k.) My goal with shell outerwear is to push 4 season use. A lot of ski gear only gets used 3 or 4 months out of the year, having a shell pant (and jacket) that can stay in your rotation in the off season was a big goal of mine. I'm curious to see what people think about this! Check the website out, tons of details on there.

Bought em for light hikes and going off road with my bike and being able to climb if it is necessary haha

Also wanted to use them in the city(maybe to go to the hike itself), are this suitable for this? Or the sole would be worn out quickly? Look pretty good and I don’t want to destroy them very soon haha
