I&#39;m not sure if the one I got was stained or not &#151; kind of weird, but weird enough to go to the trouble of sending it back? question_141235 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:46:15 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/CW-X-Insulator-Stabilyx-Tight-Mens/CWX0054M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_141234#question_141234 CW-X Insulator Stabilyx Tight - Men's<br /><br />I have a question on how warm the insulated model is. Currently for skiing I wear a mid-weight base layer and insulated ski pants. Would these take be suitable to take the place of the baselayer? Will they be too warm with the insulated ski pants? question_141234 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:41:44 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/ARC0774/Arcteryx-Maverick-AR-Jacket-Mens.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_141190#question_141190 Arc'teryx Maverick AR Jacket - Men's<br /><br />Hi gurus of clothing! how this compare with the denali? which arcteryx piece compare to tnf denali? i&#39;m trying to decide in what to buy,thanks! question_141190 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 16:13:40 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Stoic-Welder-Insulated-Softshell-Jacket-Mens/SIC0015M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_141189#question_141189 Stoic Welder Insulated Softshell Jacket - Men's<br /><br />I am a 5&#39;11&quot;, 150 pound climber, I wear 34/35 inch sleeves in a dress shirt. Should I get the Medium or Large? The reviews of another stoic softshell made me think large would be a better option, but I usually wear medium, like in my Marmot Zeus down jacket. Thanks! question_141189 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 16:11:09 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Arcteryx-Preceda-Short-Mens/ARC0756M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_141179#question_141179 Arc'teryx Preceda Short - Men's<br /><br />Wow. A 4 inch variance between XL and XXL (39&quot; to 43&quot;) 39 inch waist about an inch too small, and 43 inch waist almost 3 inches too large. Does have a drawstring waist, but don&#39;t want to look or feel &quot;cinched.&quot; Anyone have any experience with these shorts? Are they cut like everything else by Arc&#39;Teryx? As in very athletic cut? Thx.

One last question...I&#39;ve never skied with a non-insulated jacket before and that is one of my biggest decisions right now (whether to go with this one or the other insulated jacket). I do most of my skiing in the northeast around New Jersey/New York area, with a trip up to Vermont every winter. With no insulation, would a jacket like this offer enough warmth?<br /><br />Factoring in layering and all, does anyone have a specific temperature range for which they feel this jacket would be comfortable? What about the insulated jacket? Or the Stoic Welder Hi Softshell?<br /><br />Thanks a lot! question_141028 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 22:36:38 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Mountain-Hardwear-Kramer-Softshell-Jacket-Mens/MHW0967M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_140993#question_140993 Mountain Hardwear Kramer Softshell Jacket - Men's<br /><br />Write your question here...what is the best way to measure yourself to get the right fit for the kramer jacket with out orrying it being to small/tight like to make sure I can wear other things for layering.
