5 Stars GREAT PRODUCT FOR THE PRICE
This is a great set, not just for the beginner. The mat is oversized compared to others I’ve seen. And the thickness was comfortable. Having two blocks was a plus, especially to lend one out to a friend. I would recommend this to anyone, it is a complete set in a bag ready to go.

Thanks for offering a great product,

5 Stars good find
I really just wanted an inexpensive yoga mat and bag but I found this with what I wanted plus yoga blocks and strap. I don’t ever use the blocks or strap but the mat is very nice and doesn’t get dirty very easily. I’m glad I purchased this set.

4 Stars good
This kit is very good, but I was expecting a little bit bigget foam blocks.

5 Stars Does the job
Came on time. Nice non-slip mat and great blocks. The poster is pretty nice too but my wife doesn’t want it up in our house. Great value overall.

3 Stars Valeo Yoga Kit
Its been a month since i began yoga and so my first time using a sticky mat. This intro to a yoga kit has been good. The mat is relatively sturdy, although there is a smally snag on it (not sure if i did it with my toe or it came that way), but it does not seem to be expanding.

The colour is a beautiful purple, and the bag is very sturdy and holds every thing comfortably.

All and all, this kit is a good introduction to yoga for beginners. I recommend it hold heartedly.

Victorinox Swiss Army Huntsman Pocket Tool



User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars well made, affordable
This knife is well made and affordable. It has all sorts of useful gadgets for camping and backpacking. The knives are sharp and all of the tools move easily.

5 Stars Victorinox quality
A very good army knife. Victorinox is Victorinox, and there’s nothing more to say. You might find a cheaper knife but far from this quality. You also might find some Letherman knives, but not for the price of this one.

Besides the quality, it is a very complete knife. Not as complete the Champ model, but (for me)it has the most important tools: two blades, the ++openers, and the lovely scissors and wood saw. And with all this tools it’s still a very light knife.

An excellent knife!

5 Stars Amazing
A superb multi use instrument.

Great for use at home and away.The company’s reputation stays untarnished.

5 Stars Great Gift Idea!
I bought a few of these as gifts for my family and everybody loved them. I cannot find any faults with these portable knives, so here are the positives:

1) Price! $20 for a quality piece of Swiss hardware is awesome! :)

2) Made in Switzerland.

3) Sharp tools, solid construction. Even plastic body feels solid.

4) Makes a great gift!

Highly recommended.

3 Stars Not as good as I expected.
Overall a good tool, however it is difficult to open the tools, actually broke my nail trying to open it. However did use it to clip my nails. Have not used it much though. Sturdy good product.

ASICS Mens GEL Kayano 15 Running Shoe




The 15th version of the GEL-Kayano series will live up to its reputation of delivering cutting-edge components to complement the shoe’s exceptional performance and comfort. New for 2009 are the additions of ASICS Asymmetrical Lacing Design for improved upper fit and a new midsole platform that delivers the famous GEL-Kayano ride that runners expect.

5 Stars Great shoe with the right fit
I have run in Kayanos for the past 5 years, and each year I nervously try the new model only to find it is as good if not better than the last. I read quite a few reviews for the Kayano 15 and I was more nervous than ususal because there were a few comments about a new feel, the effect of the different lacing pattern on the toe box, etc. I have now been running in 15s for the past few months and I can safely say that for me these shoes are as good if not better than the 14s. I have not noticed any discomfort, and this shoe seems to fit me just a bit better than the 14s. A shoe review is certainly subjective, and no shoe seems to fit everyone the same way, but I’m 6′0″ and 195 and I run moderate distances on a weekly basis and the fit and stability of the Kayano 15 has been perfect for me. I just hope I can say the same for the 16s when I need to replace my 15s later this year!

5 Stars ASICS GEL-Kayano 15
Love the shoes, very comfortable, much better than my old pair which had run flat. The laces are off-set slightly off center, which makes this shoe much more comfortable. I get a lot of energy return from these shoes. Arrived on time, no worries, and no distress to the packaging. Live overseas and using the APO system but still arrived in a very timely manner.

3 Stars so so…
for the price and to be considered as one of the best running shoes i was expecting more.

5 Stars Great Product
My shoes arrived quickly and they are everything I expected–good on impact and a little better that the Asics 12 that I’ve been running on that are just worn out. I’ve run about 40 miles with them so far and all is good!

5 Stars My nephew is in love.
Got these as a present and was told that these are the best running shoes. My nephew runs every day for about an hour on paved sidewalks of NYC. I bought different ASICS pair for him last year. He liked previous pair but the new pair is “way better”. He does not want to take them off. Previous pair lasted a year so quality should not be a problem. I gave it 5 stars per his review.
