Just got a catalog; discount is on selected items/colors; good 'til Jan 31.

(no, I'm not affiliated with them in any way. I own one shirt and have only worn it once, in town, not even on trail! Did like it though.)

It doesn't show it on the sale page, but the eco-mesh shirt is $20 for birch. I believe this is the shirt that most people associate RailRiders with. I got my shirt last week. I can't wait to use it on the trail.

I've been eying the Regulator Wind Shirt but the Eco-Mesh is just too good a deal… so I bought both. $40 for the Regulator and $20 for the Eco.

Thanks for the heads up Kent, just picked up an ecomesh shirt for 20$! I figured I would never find one on sale.

Jim Q…

So the wife hasn't seen the credit card bill yet? :)

Actually I like the Adventure shirt a little better because it has 3 buttons at the neck and buttons on the sleeve. But since I usually wear mine for several days at a time without taking it off, it really doesn't matter that much.

Unfortunately the back of my Adventure shirt turned black from the mesh of my Murmur pack the first time I wore it… guess I should have gone online and read the directions :(

Been waiting for it to go on sale. But even with the sale price, 2 Eco-mesh shirts are the same price as one Adventure shirt, so I bought two of the eco-mesh.

I also recommend the eco-mesh pants for warm weather hiking. This is what I wear in the desert when it is hot.

+1 on the eco-mesh pants. I wear them through three seaons. Love 'em. I only stop backpacking in them when it's time to put the RAB vapor rise pants on for cold weather.

If you buy them, though, a quick hint. Make sure you zip up the sides before washing, especially if you're washing them with anything that has velcro. Protect that mesh!

Nick,

"Unfortunately the back of my Adventure shirt turned black from the mesh of my Murmur pack the first time I wore it… guess I should have gone online and read the directions :("

I just ordered two Adventure Shirts(the Eco-Mesh was sold out…). Is the dye bleeding an issue with the pack or the shirt? I'm assuming it's the pack, but I just wanna make sure.

Thanks!

David,

It is the black mesh panel on the backpack. GG's site said a small number of their packs had this problem. It is recommended that a new pack be soaked in hot water and then air dried.

At the RR website, there is more on sale than listed in the "sale" category. For each garment in the not-on-sale area, click on the price & availability tab to see which specific colors are priced for clearance and which are not. It is close-out colors that are marked down, mingled with regular prices on the rest of the inventory.
