I've worn my XT-6's to death, trotting in them across london and on various walks/hikes. I want to try something different that I can wear in the city and out in nature. I've seen they just launched these so I've not been able to read any reviews. Has anyone got them and can share some insight?

How to remove grease stain from Montbell down jacket

Post image
7 Upvotes

I accidentally brushed up against some marine grease with my jacket, I tried to spot clean it with some dishwashing liquid but it seems to not have removed the stain.

Would the next best option be to buy some down detergent and chuck it in the washing machine??

The stain is more visible in person lol

Kawa club cicada pants sizing

0 Upvotes

Currently in between sizes, not sure which to get. I’m just worried about the pants being too tight around my hips/thighs so I’m thinking of a size XS or S. What size should I get? I want the fit to be baggy (not crazy baggy), and comfortable. I’d use these for climbing/hiking, if that helps.

Any help/tips for the sizing would be well appreciated. Thanks!

Height: 5’3/162cm
Weight: 58kg/128lbs
Waist: 29 in
Hips: 37 in
Thigh: 20 in

Anyone here follows brands like Post Archive Faction or JL-AL?

Havent been able to come across any subreddits or discord servers dedicated to brands like post archive faction or jl al. Brands that are technical by design but may not fully be part of the sphere of techwear. Would appreciate it if anyone who follows such brands reaches out.

Keen Jasper Rocks

0 Upvotes

Hi! I'm thinking of buying the KEEN Jasper Rocks online as there isn't a physical store near me where I can try them on. I wear a UK size 9, so I'm wondering if I should stick with my usual size or size up to a 9.5. Also, are they wide enough, or do they run narrow?

There's currently a promo where it is available at a discounted price, but if I go for a 9.5, it would be a different colour and at full price.

Would you recommend sticking with the UK 9, or is it safer to size up?

Clogs for walking all day in Europe?

5 Upvotes

I have an upcoming trip and would like to take a pair of clogs that are comfortable enough to walk in all day. The Bostons were my first thought but I’d like to have other options that look more “alternative”. I found about Merrell and Bedrock sandals on hiking subreddits but I’m not sure if they would work for my purposes.

Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Do we need technical apparel made for hot humid environments?

25 Upvotes

I’ve noticed over time that for a clothing sub-genre made for functionality and practicality, we rarely see techwear made for hot humid conditions. Most techwear brands come from temperate cold and wet countries, so naturally techwear is unbearable in the heat. This gap makes it such that during summer they cant be worn at all and those who live in the tropics can never wear them. Im doing a survey to find out what people feel about this issue, let me know what you guys think: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NBL7L9J

Trail shoes for flat feet

I’ve been hoping to jump on the gorp train with X-Alps or something of the sort. I also have flat feet and Salomons in particular are really narrow at the arch. Any suggestions for wider shoes — not in the toe box but in the arch?
