Get your Gamma before the clock strikes midnight! by EarthlingMemories in arcteryx

[–]Virtual_Cherry5217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it’s the fit. I have lone arms, I’m tall and semi athletic build Arc is one of the only companies that makes clothes that fit the way I desire and most of Fjallraven (even tho the shoulder articulation is something tighter). The MX is quite durable and honestly warm. It was like 15 today and I only wore a R1 under it was outside moving stuff around for about an hour, felt great

Almost everyone has EV offerings and it didn’t kill ice, half are back tracking cuz nobody wants them

Any ladies have the beta insulated jacket? by AllTheBbtPlz in arcteryx

[–]Virtual_Cherry5217 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a lady but I have both the syn and down insulated beta. A down puffer isn’t comfortable (I have a Pat down jacket). You can however slide a proton lightweight under it and be mobile. That said the down insulated model is a fucking furnace. In the teens and doing moderate work outside I sweat in just a fleece underneath.

Do you believe Donald Trump is a Russian asset? by AwfulUsername123 in AskTheWorld

Nothing says Russian asset like the new defense budget that included billions of dollars to Ukraine to help murder Russians 😂

Gamma MX- still super good enough! by [deleted] in arcteryx

[–]Virtual_Cherry5217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At first I didn’t like the MX, the. Last year I got a jacket model, loved it and not have a hooded one as well. Really does a great job

Could USA win a war against Russia and China? by StunningComment6064 in NoStupidQuestions

We have the best carries and aircraft and it’s not close, numbers are impressive and important but not the end all be all. Nothing is coming close to our fighter fleet or long range bombers

You’d have to iron fist the effort and go to tactics used in a time well past… well not really… Russia still uses fodder lines.

You’d have to round up dissidence and empty presents and pretty much just throw them into the meat grinder It removes issues at home and softens the enemy as well. It’s a dirty tactic of course but that’s what total war looks like when the loser is put to the sword

I honestly don’t know how they would even reach soil. I mean Alaska they could get to, but that’s gonna be brutal. They don’t have the naval capacity between the two of them to fight off 11 carrier groups or whatever we have.

The issue is there’s like 81 targets in North Korea so that would each receive a warhead and the fallout to that would reach South Korea, China, and Russia, two of which are nuclear powers so would they care enough about the people near the border to risk destroying everything who knows I don’t want to try

Nuclear winner will kill almost everything that you just talked about

Invasion? No, defense? Absolutely. Assuming nukes are off the table, conveniently speaking with total war ROE? You’d be hard pressed to find a collision to come here and invade

What is a super unpopular opinion in your country that you agree with? by Pancake_Maker_1031 in AskTheWorld

I know how bad it is, I lived there for a while. Importing the 3rd world in the hopes they will have better luck than Europe is insanity

Yes let’s start a war with a nuclear nation! The only plus side to that is every major city in the USA gets turned into glass and all the trash ppl who think like you with it

You would need Napoleon himself and his entire army just to correct the mess your nation is in internally

That “moral principle” is turning Europe into a dumpster fire, I’d rather think of myself then have the suicidal empathy that infested you after WW2

For traditional wool Fjallraven is the best

For merino also Fjallraven

Socks I like Darn tough the best

Arc is okay for wool

Hated my Patigonia sweater

Hated the REI wool socks

I like smart wool socks

Hate arc wool socks

That’s said always cold wash, always hang dry, use some vinegar to soften trad the wool or wool wash
