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: $139.95
Great for: Light weight campers. The good: Set up and breakdown is quick and painless. The bad: It is really hard to know there are $20 camp chairs and still pick this one. Rating Variety/Appearance: 6/10. In its' stored form it is very impressive, set up it doesn't really turn heads. While designed well it isn't exactly a head turner. Feel/Comfort: 9/10. A little lower to the ground but still a cozy chair. Quality/Durability: 10/10. Every component is light but remarkably strong. Value: 5/10. Very niche market. Other: 4/10. While much smaller and lighter than competitors that comes at the expense of amenities like a cup holder and foot rest. Overall: 34/50. Verdict: This is not a sound investment for the run of the mill outdoors enthusiasts. While it is a quality product there are probably better things to spend your money on that will give you a better return on your dollar. |
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.
