IME the First Ascent-branded stuff is where they put that extra effort into materials & tailoring. For example, in the past I've had the Cirrus, which has I think 650-fill and is a little "floofier" fitwise, and now have the MicroTherm (FA), which has 800-fill down and fits a bit snugger. Same with rain jackets; Cloud Cap (regular) and Super Sevens (FA) - the latter has more material layering with the same weight, and extra waterproofing treatments in addition to a less boxy fit. Of course, all of this means it's more expensive as well. Eddie Bauer is one of the few brands who still make tall sizes so I get to know them pretty well.

So this is interesting. I have a pair of Topo Trailventure 2 WP, which I enjoy. I was looking at the regular non-waterproof version for the heck of it, seen here. When at the page, it shows as regular price: When I added them to the cart, it shows a massive discount: Don't think I've ever seen that before. No coupon code, nothing indicating on sale. Anyway, I bought them, because who can pass that up?

I am a moron in many other aspects of life, but not that. However, being slotted so late in the early access booking period means I will likely have to be flexible with whatever's still available by then, and plan accordingly. Laterite fucked around with this message at 01:07 on Mar 15, 2024 |
