The previous lenses had some severe flaking….due to what I have no idea. I replaced the gold lenses the black frames had with another pair of the gold iridium... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413256552068 Wed, 9 Jan 2008 12:54:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413256552068?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_413296529028?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I bought the original versions back in 1990, as well as three different pair last year as retros, the black/black versions (known as the blackcats), the white/military blue version (the militaries) and the white/black/read versions (with Mars Blackmon... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413296529028 Fri, 4 Jan 2008 20:19:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413296529028?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_413258649220?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I used these shoes for running over the last year, 6-10 miles at a time. At the same time I was using the similarly priced Nike Air Max Motos and ASICS Gel Nimbus among others. It is a testament to these shoes that they fit in well with the previous... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413258649220 Fri, 4 Jan 2008 14:55:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413258649220?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_413253406340?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I have listed a review of the 2005 regular edition Pegasus elsewhere on this site. Based on my delight with that shoe, I purchased this much more attractive offering last year. As with the regular Pegasus, I planned to use this for running.

The features abound to the point of contemplating what else could have been crammed inside? Ah, and you know it has been crammed chock full because when you unpack the watch, the first thing you notice is... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413250588292 Fri, 4 Jan 2008 13:25:09 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413250588292?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_413242986116?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I picked these shoes up on eBay more than a year ago for long distance running use. Having had good experiences with ASICS in the past, I picked these up even though they were a size 16 instead of my usual 15s. That should have meant some problems... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413242986116 Fri, 4 Jan 2008 12:34:09 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413242986116?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_413193113220?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - Let us be honest. You are not buying these shoes for playing basketball. Perhaps 15 years ago, but not today. Sure, you could, but then you could do many things. If you want to use them for basketball and are looking for a review about that&#133look... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413193113220 Fri, 4 Jan 2008 00:43:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413193113220?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_413188263556?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I was writing my review of the ASICS Kinsei, when I noticed that there was no review for the Air Max Moto+ IV, which I could not allow to pass. I picked these shoes up after sending back my defective Nike Air Max 360. Nike gave me a gift certificate,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413188263556 Thu, 3 Jan 2008 23:49:32 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413188263556?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_413166308996?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - Well, to start off, I am guessing you need to be either a bluegrass fan, or barenaked ladies fan. I suppose being both would be better. I do not own any other bluegrass music, so I guess I fall more on the latter type of fan. I purchased this CD... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~413166308996 Thu, 3 Jan 2008 20:53:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_413166308996?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_408978493060?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I received the Kinsei as a Christmas present. After doing some research, they were picked up for under $100, which is a bargain when compared to the regular retail of $165-180. I knew little of the shoes other than that they became the new... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~408978493060 Thu, 3 Jan 2008 19:57:29 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_408978493060?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_370494312068?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I picked this projector up at www.woot.com for $405 after a mail-in rebate for $200 (which took several months to receive.) I needed a monitor for occasional use associated with presentations and movies (outdoors and indoors.)

These particular headphones look just like the provided Epinions picture, but do not have "in-line volume... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~369676684932 Thu, 31 May 2007 20:01:11 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_369676684932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_369295593092?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I may be as sophisticated as Gomer Pyle when it comes to knowing how to get everything out of the modern digital camera. I previously purchased a Sony DSC-V1, which had features out the ying-yang, and I tapped as many of those as I could with some... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~369295593092 Thu, 31 May 2007 00:09:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_369295593092?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_369237200516?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I bought this mp3 player on eBay about six months ago, looking for something cheap (I paid $25) that I could use and abuse using while running and at the gym. Six months later and it is still working fine.

Again, this pair was bought primarily for dress use, and the solid black, few seams look proves great for that purpose. Well, at least for me since I hate conventional dress shoes, especially since my... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~219452051076 Tue, 31 Jan 2006 20:10:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_219452051076?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_219439206020?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I must start by confessing that most of my boot purchases are because of my aversion to dress shoes, rather than trail hiking or the like. Some are purchased just for working, but these were not primarily intended for that, at least by me, but as you... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~219439206020 Tue, 31 Jan 2006 17:51:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_219439206020?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_219334217348?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I own many running shoes for this hobby/addiction, and this shoe, back in 1991 was my first pair of running shoes. When I heard of a possible retro, I was very pleased. Those shoes lasted for almost 11 years, although not always with real running.

I bought these shoes mostly on reputation (purchased on eastbay), not from trying them on or... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~219316063876 Tue, 31 Jan 2006 13:21:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_219316063876?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_218305564292?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I own many pairs of running shoes, which not only gives me many options (too many some might say) but a chance to see the differences in shoes from day to day. These shoes are definitely different, from not only my Asics, Nikes and New Balance, but also... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~218305564292 Fri, 20 Jan 2006 00:54:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_218305564292?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_218109742724?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - I own many pairs of running shoes, and had a favorable experience with the Adidas climacool I, so when these went on sale on eastbay about six months ago, even with the rather outlandish color of the orange(uh, liquid hot magma orange would be an... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~218109742724 Wed, 18 Jan 2006 12:18:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_218109742724?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_217790058116?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - This is the second album from Riley Armstrong. I bought these online, without really knowing Riley&#146s music, just knowing that he was under the Flicker label, which is connected to Audio Adrenaline, a group I am somewhat fond of. I bought both at... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~217790058116 Tue, 17 Jan 2006 01:14:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_217790058116?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_217787698820?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author rookshark - Introduction: Just in case you are not aware, this CD is in Spanish. Not interested? Stop now. The review is in English, but the lyrics quoted are in Spanish.

He raved, I bought. Plain and simple. I knew little to nothing about the book prior to ordering it, his recommendation was enough for me.
