http://kirstincronn-mills.com/?p=377 You can expect honest, engaging and experiential-based women’s gear reviews of all the female specific—and sometimes unisex—gear that I can get my little paws on. You’ll find reviews ranging from alpine ski and snowboard equipment to backcountry and touring gear to climbing and biking to hiking and camping, as well as footwear and sunglasses.
http://sargeantstudios.net/?p=2007 Why is female-specific gear important?
In the words of women’s gear pioneer Jeannie Thoren “women are not small men.” We have a lower center of gravity than men; women are more pear shaped, while men are more apple shaped. These differences in our center of gravity translates to differing body alignment to appropriately address and disperse our body weight. Our center of gravity dictates our structure and alignment. Thus, women have wider hips to address their lower center of gravity and men have wider shoulders to address theirs. Products that take these differences into consideration are tantamount to a woman’s comfort, stability, ease of use and confidence in her outdoor activities.
About: My name is Leah Fielding, I’ve been a freelance skiing journalist/editor—working with Freeskier, Powder and SKI/SKIING— for the last four years and decided it was time to share all the wonderful outdoor products that I’ve come to know and love for their commitment to active women.
