Shrunk and Punk'd

Outside/In

News flash: men aren't the only people who enjoy the outdoors. No sh*#, right? But the outdoor gear industry has only recently started to realize that there are more people wanting high quality gear than traditionally fit men.

And what do you do if the available products - pink or not -  don't fit your body at all?
