First pair of Roka Rx Eyeglasses

I have been wearing contacts since I was 7 years old. My subscription is on the strong side (-6.75 in both eyes) and while I have owned many different pairs of glasses over the years, I have never reverted to wearing glasses over contacts. Since I received my Roka Cade 2.0's I haven't stopped wearing them. I opted for every possible lens upgrade, minus the transition lenses option. I like the look of the glasses, but more importantly I appreciate the high quality of the frame + build. The stay on my face without causing headaches or slipping down my nose. I look forward to buying more pairs of Rokas in the future. Just to have to wait for my eye insurance to reup.

Good Rain Jacket, Size Runs Small

The Montem Rain Jacket is a good, light weight well made rain jacket that conveniently stows away into it's own pocket. I am giving this product four stars for those it will fit and for the exceptional customer service that worked with me on exchanges and returns.Originally I had ordered a 2X size rain jacket that I could not even get on. It was exchanged for a replacement Montem 3XL rain jacket that I could get on, but did not fit me either. Too tight in the shoulders and torso 🙁.I am 6'2", 268# and wear 2XL shirts, sweaters and jackets from other manufacturers, so I can only assume that the Montem apparel runs small. I do have a 3X Columbia winter jacket, bought big for layering underneath and that works splendidly. I was really hoping the 3XL Montem rain ... MoreThe Montem Rain Jacket is a good, light weight well made rain jacket that conveniently stows away into it's own pocket.

I was really hoping the 3XL Montem rain jacket would be the answer and fit me as I really liked it. I will say that the Montem hiking poles that I've had for some years really kick butt. The locking mechanisms remain as secure as ever and the poles are light weight and strong as a wood staff. The interchangable tips well with traversing rock, mud and snow while helping to maintain one's balance and footing. I am still a satisfied customer.

My new best friend!

When I came across a Tarak while on a hiking trip, I knew I'd found The One. But I wasn't wild about the colorway & waited to look up my options, knowing I could go back the next day... and discovered the Del Dia program. Much indecision later, I found The One The One. ~100mi of hiking later, I'm still over the moon.Backstory and needs:I was still carrying my 20-year-old Black Diamond 16l Bullet pack and had repaired it more than once. I'd tried a ton of packs, and was looking for: something with substantial straps (4-5l of water plus snacks, first aid, extra layers...), sternum strap, substantial fabric, an easy-access pocket, and...gear loops on the outside. Clip on a bear bell, empty bottle, extra layers, or just grab hold of the thing.The pack:This pack fits ... MoreWhen I came across a Tarak while on a hiking trip, I knew I'd found The One.

Clip on a bear bell, empty bottle, extra layers, or just grab hold of the thing.The pack:This pack fits like a dream. I'd worried about the easy-access bit, being a drawstring, but I can stash a water on the outside, and between the top pocket and front side pocket, my essentials are close at hand. Add a double-layer pocket at the inside top (plus key security), and the divider for a water bladder, and all my needs are happily met. I didn't carefully check out the one I tried in the store, so only knew about the top/lid pocket and would have been fine with just that. Seriously, I'm over the moon.The strap situation:Wearing this thing feels like a hug to me. I don't miss the lack of load lifters. Love having a sternum strap, it's one of my essentials. I don't mind that the hip belt is unpadded, because I use it to keep the pack from swinging on a scramble, but some will find it too narrow for comfortable weight transfer. Adjustable cross straps plus front bottom un-pocket give so much flexibility and let me carry any load size (and arrangement) comfortably.My one concern:Only a couple trips (under 100mi of hiking) in, the waterproofing on the drawstring area is starting to delaminate. I'll be reaching out to the support team on that.Bottom line:It's a hug that lets you carry a lot for a day hike, well-arranged, and swing your arms while you're at it.

My son is 24yrs old

My son is 24yrs old & at age 5yrs old several doctors told us he has allergies/ashma. Medication after medication; at one point 6 meds during the day. I fought for years knowing something wasn’t right with his lungs, because no medicine would help. Finally, at age 17 a Pulmonary Specialist listened to me and he conducted a lung biopsy, while ENT Specialist removed his of adenoids & tonsils. During that procedure my son’s lungs had to be drained 3x’s. Insanity! Best way I can describe the way his entire life, is his lungs are like a non-stop washing machine. He was diagnosed with Bronchiectasis. Finally, it all made sense! He has never had any relief, he only became immune to it all. Sad truth. I tried everything, docs suggested or wrote a prescription for…However, ... MoreMy son is 24yrs old & at age 5yrs old several doctors told us he has allergies/ashma.

I trusted God lead me to Theon for a reason, and I truly trusted Laire. I finally took the plunge and ordered Alpha Bios pack. My son is different, I’m crying as I’m typing this message, because he feels RELIEF & it’s only been a little over a week (wakes up ready to drink it daily too). For 19yrs constantly hacking, blowing his nose, coughing, spitting up mucus using inhalers, nebulizer and vest machine… I am Praising God with tears of JOY! A feeling of SUDDENLY, that’s it. Talk about priceless! Thank you changing lives—a forever grateful son & Mom and sister in Christ, xxxo

Opinion plus ideas for next model( You can only gain so much pleasure going up-and-down.)

I feel as if you was to incorporate something inside the sleeves. Since it's already attached to make the sleeve. Rotate and just working on that aspect Could increase the value and interest for a lot more other people. I feel that would probably be a really good feature to add for the next design.Ask for the route package protection. I ordered it during the freeze over here in Alabama. So things didn't go as planned. So I really couldn't give my honest opinion on that. Because things were delayed as is. I had to wait for my item to come into the mail 3 days after it was supposed to be delivered. But I do like the security of knowing that it was going to get to me either way.

Quality merch…delivered by a snail

I’m writing this review for my 13yr old son..after a wicked 3wk camping trip through central Washington, my 2 boys, Aeson and Akai discovered Liquid Death and turned the adventure into a wild goose chase to find and drink as many new flavours of the stuff as possible!! They were so pumped to find that LD collaborated with Metallica when we attended the 2 night show in Seattle!! We left the second show with 2 full cases and a Met x LD concert T. When we crossed the border back into Canada they were hella disappointed to find it wasn’t available up here!! They got some money from their Gamma for a new shirt for school and Acey decided to order up a sweet T! He was overly excited to get it in his hot hands but was really bummed on the daily when he’d check the mailbox ... MoreI’m writing this review for my 13yr old son..after a wicked 3wk camping trip through central Washington, my 2 boys, Aeson and Akai discovered Liquid Death and turned the adventure into a wild goose chase to find and drink as many new flavours of the stuff as possible!!

He was overly excited to get it in his hot hands but was really bummed on the daily when he’d check the mailbox and it was empty. This continued for over 3 weeks..poor guy haha. Anyways..when it finally arrived he couldn’t have been happier..it’s a really quality shirt and he tries to wear it to school everyday! We love the whole Liquid Death concept and the boys always talk about how they’d love to be Liquid Death reps north of the border, one day. I mean..the shirt did arrive here although it took FOREVER!

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner

Got a qp of Runtz OG (sticky, not too dry... currently letting it cure a bit, though it's completely smokeable, citrus hints, lots of trics) and I got a qp of Mendo Breath... what a pleasant surprise! Very smooth smoke... surprisingly smooth, and also quite sticky. I was also struck by the pleasant amount of moisture in the plant (as opposed to it being dry as sand). Hand crumbled, grinded manually and with an electric grinder... good looking buds from the outer trics to the center of the flower. This is the 2nd and 3rd qp I've gotten from Bay Smokes, and Mendo Breath is one I'd consider getting again (though I tend to order different strains when ordering bulk). Both came in more potent than expected (the outdoor is advertised as having a lower THCa content, but ... MoreGot a qp of Runtz OG (sticky, not too dry... currently letting it cure a bit, though it's completely smokeable, citrus hints, lots of trics) and I got a qp of Mendo Breath... what a pleasant surprise!

Both came in more potent than expected (the outdoor is advertised as having a lower THCa content, but both of these were just at or slightly over 25%).Bay's outdoor and greenhouse prices as well as their snowball shake prices are lifesavers... my med-canna pharmacy (I'm an Rx patient) sells zips for over 500, and for the cost of an ounce and a half in my area, I can get two QPs of superior medicine. I think tis was my 4th significant order, and I've been more than satisfied with each one.
