Gear and Wear
A comprehensive review of gear and clothing for the active lifestyle, run and written by an avid hiker, runner, and all around fitness junky. The aim of the Gear and Wear is to fill the gap left from the lack of complete and thorough reviews available anywhere else. As such, all products reviewed by Gear & Wear have been used extensively before being reviewed to insure only reliable information is being passed on to other consumers. Reviews can be found categorized as a piece of gear (for hiking, camping, climbing, boxing/MMA, working out or other), wear (for footwear, shirts, jackets, pants and shorts or accessories) or by their brand name. Additionally we'll also upload a review on some food to keep you fueled! We can also be found on Twitter @GearandWearBlog.
Cost: $20 Great for: Staying cool, avoiding the sun, and being a windbreaker. The good: There are a bunch of ways to wear your Buff giving you a lot of utility. The bad: It's a one size fits all (which isn't always accurate). Rating Variety/Appearance: 10/10. There are over 100 different options to choose from to insure you get a Buff that fits your style. Feel/Comfort: 10/10. The microfiber material is soft on even the most sensitive of skin. Quality/Durabilty: 10/10. Buffs are made to last, even with all the stretching from use and washes it retains its' shape and stretchiness. Value: 6/10. It's a great product for a great price but for a few extra dollars you can upgrade to Buffs with insect repellent and extra UV protection. Other: 5/10. While it is supposed to be worn a whole bunch of ways I'd be surprised if I could figure out half of them. Also, since it is one size fits all, some of the ways to wear it will not work for those with bigger heads like myself. Overall: 41/50. Verdict: An excellent buy, although it might be worth it to upgrade for a little extra money. |
About your Reviewer: Joe P.Growing up in Michigan and around the Great Lakes has made it easy to be an avid outdoors enthusiast and conservationist my whole life. I love doing anything that keeps me staying active and being outdoors. This ranges from running, lifting, climbing, hiking, camping, biking, etc. All of these hobbies of mine are things I take very seriously and love to do. Because of this, before I make any purchase for one of my passions I try to do as much research about a product as possible to insure I am getting a product that I will enjoy for years. That has led to me starting this site in hopes of helping others avoid the guess work I went through by providing honest and unbiased product reviews.
