Love the look of that umbrella. Great looking thick, robust shaft (oo-er!) What’s the brand?

From a guy that will refuse to feature you on his blog unless you give him free gear.
Consumer Reports is the only entity of which I'm aware to purchase everything they review. I'm not sure that Crompton's approach is unusual or even unethical as long as it's clear that the vendors are providing the clothes.

So, I just picked up a new cardigan, and I think I could use some advice: is it too tight? On one hand, it seems to be a slightly tighter fit than most people show, on the other hand I really don't like my knitwear to be too loose a fit, since it bundles up easily, especially around the waist. Combine that with the shirt, side adjusters and, not to put too fine a point on it, my gut-fat, and it adds an extra 10lbs. Could use some of that bulk on my biceps though!

And yes, I know these shoes REALLY need some love. They're a rather pale brown and I hoped to nudge them in the right direction with some darker creme. It may not have been my best decision.

It’s standard policy in the book world (of all things! Talk about an industry that could use every penny!) for the publisher to provide free Advance Review Copies to legitimate reviewers.
