Oh my God.

An outlet of my favorite sporting goods / outdoor company has just opened around the corner from my house.

so many things I'd like....

Just keep telling yourself this: "Outlets are where they dump all their cr@p. There won't be ANYthing good there."

Hey...it might work. I went to a Pearl Izumi outlet recently, and that certainly held....nothing there (for me, anyway ;) ).

Actually I got a womens' vagabond jacket (light rain shell with detachable arms) and a matching Accelerator top (oh dear, I usually don't buy color coordinates) from PI. They also have North Face plus another few cool brands...
