- Have You Ever Bought Footwear Online?
We never have. Until now, that is! As our regular readers know, we do a lot of hiking when we're traveling. That means we put a lot of miles on our hiking boots, and we don't only wear them for hiking. When we're traveling, we travel very...

Spent yesterday looking for new hiking boots. We both needed a new pair, and the cave tour on Saturday requires that they be "above the ankle" type of boots. Click here to read more......

Another Christmas has come and gone, and I'm still reeling! Our family had a wonderful gathering, with lots of love and laughs. I am drinking a super tasty cup of coffee this morning, made possible by my new Mr. Coffee. One of my...
- Another Week Gone By
On Wednesday I went to see Liam's swim lesson but he decided he didn't feel like swimming, so we just sat and talked, then went out for dinner. I had tortilla soup that was so spicy I thought it would give me a problem later, but I felt...
- Better Sound With Custom One Pro Headphones
When traveling you might not be able to take with you the Hi-Fi audio system from home, but you can definitely use some high quality headphones. Keeping this in mind I decided to take the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro Headphones out for a spin. The...

Travel Fashion: North Face Hiking Boots and Jacket
North Face probably has the most traveler friendly of mottoes. And I say this because the moment I received this package and read 'Never stop exploring' written in big letters on the box, I was overtaken by serious feelings of wanderlust.
But in all honesty, North Face is so much more than wanderlust-inducing messages. The quality of their clothes is amazing.
The Men's Evolution II TriClimate® 3 in 1 Jacket is an awesome and valuable wardrobe item. Ever since I got it I've been wearing it almost exclusively whenever a casual attire was proper. It's not only that it's super comfortable, but it's also incredibly versatile as the outer waterproof jacket and the inner fleece jacket can be separated and worn independently. The roll-away hood and the adjustable hem and cuffs come in handy and provide a personal fit. However, my favorite thing about this jacket is that it's extremely comfortable and warm without being bulky or heavy.
On the other hand, The North Face Men's Verbera GORE-TEX® Hiking Boots are ideal for hiking while looking pretty cool as well. The boots are waterproof and breathable, keeping the feet dry at any time, ensuring a comfortable feel. They are made out of nubuck leather, Vibram sole and come with the option of adding a crampon, which makes them durable, practical and fit for a great variety of terrains. These boots make hiking fun and comfortable and I totally recommend them.
The Verbera GORE-TEX® Hiking Boots and Evolution II TriClimate® 3 in 1 Jacket were provided by Blacks.co.uk and Millets.co.uk. They have an awesome array of outdoor equipment and clothes ideal for camping and hiking. All opinions expressed here are my own and based on my personal experience with the products.
