“ Mom got this for a song during the off season while traveling the Rockies. She knows value and quality. Only down side is that it is an XL, and the Sidewinders are cut for what Arc calls their "Snowpsports" cut, not their "Athletic" cut. She knows I take an XL in athletic fits. XL in the AR would best fit 6'3"+ and 220+ lb. studs. Everything is the bomb...” --snokat
“ OK let me tell you about the Opedix tights,they came just in time for me to wear them today. The price I listed is from the website. I won the chance to review these here on Epic. Thank You Again!These are a well made pair of tights ,what you’d expect from a high end base layer. I am 6’-2” -205 lbs which put me in a large. It used to be I had the scrawny leg thing going on but I guess...” --wikked1
“ I agree with the vast majority of what Finndog has to say in his review, and it's obvious he's used the Koven Plus enough to know the jacket. As for GearGuide's concerns w/ durability: I've got 2.5 seasons' use out of the jacket now, have worn it extensively with a pack, and crashed it a few times, and it is still in fantastic shape. If your definition of hard-core skiing...” --Veloscente
“ Review: I have been a fan of DNA products for some time now starting with my "Moe" jacket from two seasons ago that still looks good. What attracted me to the Giga jacket is that I wanted a new addition to my clothing quiver that had some color preferably in a "print".The Giga caught my eye immediately. Along with my Moe, the Giga just fit, while I am not partial to insulated...” --Philpug
“Fantastic pants, got them in black and on sale in Canada for $120 cdn. Couldn't pass up this deal, will be my primary pant for years to come. Can't say enough about the quality of the material and the pants in general. BTW mine are NOT insulated but they are the Range model” --strangedays
“ I've used many balaclavas, all have been lacking in some area. This is the best one I've used so far. It has almost everything going for it with a couple minor downsides. On the plus, it's extremely lightweight and won't bulk up under your helmet. The GoreTex Windstopper fabric completely keeps out the wind, but the flipside of this is that it's only included in the...” --Gunnerbob
“ I've used this jacket for a year now, and I love it. It's a "soft shell" type jacket: A really sturdy stretch shell with just a very light fleece lining with a poly mesh inner lining. With a long-sleeve base and a mid-weight fleece shirt over that I've been cozy in the mid-teens. It has amazing features: lots of pockets, with nice touches like a lanyard for a phone or camera, wrist...” --MC Ski
“These are absolutely bombproof soft-shell ski pants that actually come in big and tall sizes. "XL/Tall" fits me just about perfectly; I'm 6'6", 265 lbs, and usually wear 40"x34" or 42"x34" pants. "XXL/Tall" is falling off me, so should fit EXTREMELY big and tall people. These are NOT insulated, but are very waterproof and fairly windproof. The softshell material is EXTREMELY breathable. ...” --Matthias99
“ As with most merino you're comfortable, not warm or cool. The Ibex I have is slightly warmer and perhaps tougher but I'd bet both will outlast me. These 2 companies make the worlds best sweaters. ” --skeeee
