Not very happy in the durability department with this cap. Yes, the extra size, design, and fit are awesome, but after using it a few times it came apart at the back with the elastic band. Then again, for their [rice, it is not much of a loss. However, I do have caps that are several years old that aside from faded are still in prime condition.



Well, these are by far the longest lasting gloves I've ever had. When I first got them, I thought they would disintegrate in a month at most. They have proven to be extremely durable. A year + later, they are and feel like on day one. They are relatively expensive when compared to many other brands and models, but I found them on sale for half their usual price and they have paid for themselves several times over again!!



This is not your typical "windbreaker". This thing is worth every penny of it. I recently got to use it extensively and it was simply one of the best pieces of gear I could have had. The worst part for me is that I will never get to use it enough to justify the expense.
