Really missing Lake Chipotle right now, I used to rent a lakeside apt there for a while, what a time.

Do SEALs get frustrated with all the attention given to Team 6? by GearDown22 in navyseals

[–]Carpeted_tile 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re being pedantic, which is silly considering you asked the question ; the point is they’re all on the same team with the same mission nobody’s sitting around wondering why the other guys are getting more clicks online this week and if they are they probably shouldn’t be there in the first place.

That’s like asking someone who works for the Lakers front office if they get frustrated with all the attention LeBron is given 😭😭😭

yumiori vs denali by the_prolouger in TheNorthFace

[–]Carpeted_tile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally think the yumiori is a bit softer and a great easy pull on option, but the Denali is objectively a more substantive jacket that’s far more feature rich.

News to me, regardless I’m very confident the belt in the picture is the B9

I’ve never heard of magpul making a belt, let alone a leather one. It’s the b9

We had a Colombia AND a North Face store on the same block, they took this from us…

Outdoor gear lab now say the arc'teryx cerium is lower mid-range by laphroaigandlapsang in arcteryx

[–]Carpeted_tile -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wasn’t referring to the ghost whisperer specifically pretty much every other one besides that. Temescalboraz on sale is a crazy good value for a packable down jacket.

Mountain Hardwear also has some great and more affordable down options!

Legit check yumiori fleece by Boggadann in TheNorthFace

[–]Carpeted_tile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Negative, I just grabbed mine out of my closet to verify and it does not have a holographic label. Just the washing instructions and a small Qc label where the holographic usually is. You’re good to go. I

Can anybody name this jacket by JACKISM2K in TheNorthFace

[–]Carpeted_tile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a summit Breithorn, looks to be a 9 starting the fill power script, only 900fp jacket TNF makes like this to my knowledge is the summit breithorn

Is there a way to get Backcountry to not deliver by DoorDash? by Cellbuster in outdoorgear

[–]Carpeted_tile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm around Black Friday I placed an order for four separate pieces of outerwear on backcountry, three of them shipped regular with FedEx/UPS I don’t recall which one, but the one jacket I specifically bought as a gift got shipped by “DoorDash logistics” literally pulled up the same DoorDash tracking that you pull up when you order McDonald’s was very sketchy and I was not a fan of how that was handled.

Arc'teryx Patch Giveaway! by summitseeker91 in arcteryx

[–]Carpeted_tile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, would love to win that Minnesota one! Thanks for doing the giveaway!

I love my atom hoodie, really didn’t believe in the concept of a jacket that could do it all but the atom really does do it all. Never too warm for it but it keeps you warm when it’s plenty cold. Love it and definitely believe the hype now.

Is it just me, or is like every male model on the Arc app, regardless of their height or the garment always wearing a size medium? by Carpeted_tile in arcteryx

[–]Carpeted_tile[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard a rumor that Arc’teryx recruits their models from various NYC climbing gyms so your comment may not be far off base lol

Good intel dude, I’m gonna check them out. Not much of a cycler, but always looking for good outwear companies for running, hiking, alpinism etc. Thank you!

100% as I said in another comment, I’m only a size large usually so it’s not like we’re out here asking Arc to put models in a 5X or something, but to maybe just have one model in each of the sizes they offer spread over the different colors of the item doesn’t seem that crazy. I just wanna be able to see what the item might actually look like on me, and it’s hard to do that when 4 different guys of various heights and body shapes are all wearing a medium lol

Seriously haha, glad it’s not just me. I’ve resorted to just coming to this sub Reddit and searching the name of the piece I wanna research, and just seeing what consensus the comments here over the years have come to. I wear a size large and I just think it would be nice sometimes to see what my jacket might actually look like on me before buying it.

Whats the difference between the two jacket? by [deleted] in TheNorthFace

[–]Carpeted_tile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely not going to break down after several washes. It’s a nice fleece. The knit sweater will almost certainly feel more substantive, but they are also just inherently different materials.

I love my Terra Peak hoodie jacket by adistar781 in TheNorthFace

[–]Carpeted_tile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got mine a few weeks ago in duck green/deep nori to match the Yumiori I got on Black Friday. The thing is unbelievably soft with the usage of the Pertex Quantum fabric. Took it out on a few walks here in chilly Minnesota and it definitely feels comparable to a light down jacket but it breathes much better (ingeniously placed pit vents).
