B2Gold Reports Record Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results08:00 EST Wednesday, November 14, 2012VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 14, 2012) - B2Gold Corp. (TSX:BTO)(OTCQX:BGLPF)(PINKSHEETS:BGLPF) ("B2Gold" or the "Company") reports its results from its operations for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012. All dollar figures are in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated. 2012 Third Quarter HighlightsRecord gold production of 42,156 ounces, ahead of budgeted guidance of 39,517 ounces of gold Adjusted net earnings (1) of $19.6 million ($0.05 per share) Consolidated operating cash cost of $571 per ounce of gold, lower than budget of $574 per ounce of gold Cash flow from operations of $28.4 million ($0.07 per share) before changes in non-cash working capital Record gold revenue of $67.1 million Record gold sales of 39,668 ounces Cash and cash equivalents of $73.2 million at quarter end Update on Proposed B2Gold and CGA Mining Limited ("CGA") Merger Mining permit and road construction permit received for the Jabali Central deposit on La Libertad property in Nicaragua 2012 Year to Date HighlightsRecord gold production of 113,561 ounces Adjusted net earnings (1) of $61.5 million ($0.16 per share) Cash flow from operations of $83.3 million ($0.22 per share) before changes in non-cash working capital (13% increase compared to 2011) Record gold revenue of $188.3 million Consolidated operating cash cost of $580 per ounce of gold Full year gold production and operating cash cost per ounce guidance maintained Financial ResultsB2Gold reported adjusted net earnings (1) for the quarter, of $19.6 million ($0.05 per share) compared to $18.3 million ($0.05 per share) in the same period of 2011.Cash flow from operating activities for the third quarter of 2012 was $28.4 million ($0.07 per share), compared to $27.8 million ($0.07 per share) in the second quarter of 2012 and $20.0 million ($0.06 per share) in the third quarter of 2011. The Company remains debt-free and in a strong financial position with $73.2 million in cash as at September 30, 2012.For the third quarter of 2012, the Company generated (GAAP) net income of $14.5 million ($0.04 per share) compared to $9.0 million ($0.03 per share) in the equivalent period of 2011.(1)Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure which excludes foreign exchange gains (losses) and non-cash items consisting of deferred income tax expense and share-based payments expense.Gold RevenueGold revenue for the third quarter of 2012 increased to a record $67.1 million on sales of 39,668 ounces at an average price of $1,691 per ounce (the average quarter spot price was $1,652 per ounce) compared to $50.5 million on sales of 29,672 ounces at an average price of $1,701 per ounce in the 2011 third quarter. Gold revenue increased by approximately 33% compared to the corresponding quarter in 2011, mainly due to higher gold ounces sold.In the third quarter, La Libertad Mine accounted for $44.9 million of gold revenue from the sale of 26,463 ounces while $22.2 million was contributed by the Limon Mine from the sale of 13,205 ounces.OperationsThe Company achieved record gold production and revenue in the third quarter of 2012 and year-to-date. Consolidated gold production was 42,156 ounces, 23% above the third quarter of 2011 and ahead of budgeted guidance of 39,517 ounces. Operating cash costs were $571 per ounce of gold slightly better than budget of $574 per ounce.The Company is forecasting another record year for gold production in 2012. The excellent operating performance at both La Libertad and Limon Mines has resulted in the Company increasing the lower end of its budgeted production guidance from 150,000 to 155,000 ounces of gold while maintaining the upper end of 160,000 ounces of gold and a cash operating cost of approximately $590 to $625 per ounce. As previously announced, gold production is expected to increase each successive quarter of 2012. Cash operating costs are expected to improve and production to increase in 2013 and 2014 over 2012 due to the processing of higher grade ore from the Jabali deposit through the Libertad mill. Consequently, the Company is projecting gold production to increase to approximately 185,000 ounces in 2013 and 200,000 in 2014.Subject to the closing of the recently announced Transaction with CGA Mining Limited ("CGA") (see below for details), the Company is expecting production to increase to 385,000 ounces of gold in 2013 and 400,000 ounces in 2014. Cash from mining operations (2) for the nine months to September 30, 2012 was $115.1 million, exceeding the 2012 nine months guidance by $5.9 million and is anticipated to continue to improve (at current market prices) in the fourth quarter as production increases. It is expected that cash from mining operations for 2012 will exceed original projections of approximately $140 million (using a $1,550 per ounce gold price). (2)Cash from mining operations is a non GAAP measure and consists of gold revenue less production costs less royalties and production taxes.La Libertad Mine, Nicaragua (B2Gold 100%)La Libertad open pit Mine continued its strong performance, finishing the quarter with record monthly gold production in September of 11,217 ounces. Third quarter gold production was also a record of 29,441 ounces produced at an operating cash cost of $513 per ounce and a total cash cost of $547 per ounce. This compares to the budget of 27,347 ounces of gold at an operating cash cost of $510 per ounce. La Libertad Mine operating cash costs were slightly higher than budget mainly due to higher mining costs (contractor, blasting, fuel), crushing and grinding costs, and higher process plant consumable use and cost (power, reagents).Gold production in the third quarter was higher than budget mainly due to higher than budgeted gold grade (1.91 g/t gold compared to budget of 1.88 g/t gold), higher through put of 517,656 tonnes compared to budget of 501,953 tonnes and higher gold recovery of 92.3% versus the budget of 90.4%. Gold recovery continues to outperform budget as the Company optimizes its plant processes. The mill throughput rate in the third quarter averaged 5,627 tonnes per day, another new quarterly record and 3% better than the budget for the period of 5,456 tonnes per day.During the nine months of 2012, the Libertad Mine generated gold revenue of $129 million from the sale of 77,671 ounces at an average price of $1,661 per ounce, compared to $107.7 million from the sale of 71,011 ounces at an average price of $1,517 per ounce in the same period of 2011. Total gold production was 78,822 ounces at an operating cash cost of $506 per ounce of gold compared to budget of 74,731 ounces at $554 per ounce. Higher than year-to-date budgeted production was mainly due to higher mill throughput, gold recovery and mill head grade. Operating costs have been favourable to budget due to increased gold and silver production, better recovery, and a lower strip ratio than budgeted.Gold production from Libertad is expected to increase quarter over quarter in 2012 as higher grade ore from the new Santa Maria pit enters the mine plan as well as resuming production of higher grade ore from Jabali in the fourth quarter.La Libertad Mine is now forecast to produce approximately 105,000 to 110,000 ounces of gold in 2012, at an operating cash cost of approximately $550 to $575 per ounce. Cash from mine operations at La Libertad Mine is projected to exceed the original budgeted guidance of approximately $100 million (at $1,550 per ounce gold price).The Company has budgeted capital costs at La Libertad in 2012 totaling approximately $27.7 million. The majority of this capital cost will be expended on pre-stripping at the Santa Maria pit and to access future ore by enlarging existing pits and completing a tailings pond expansion.The Company recently announced that it has received the mining permit (subject to certain conditions), for the Jabali Central deposit on the Libertad property. The Company is also pleased to announce that it has received the final mining haul road construction permit. Improvements to the main road access to town have now been completed and construction of the private haul road has recently commenced. Mine infrastructure development will also commence shortly.The 2012 budget for the development of the Jabali deposit is approximately $21 million. This budget is funding the construction of the private haul road for transporting the Jabali deposit ore to the Libertad mill, and for engineering, metallurgical and socio-economic programs. The Company plans to commence the shipping of Jabali ore to the Libertad mill in the first quarter of 2013. Jabali costs to September 30, 2012 are $8.5 million and will likely end the year approximately $10 million under budget. The main reason for the under spend is a delay to the start of construction of the private haul road which recently commenced. These costs should be incurred in the first quarter and shipments of Jabali ore will not be impacted as the existing road can be used if needed. Annual gold production at La Libertad is projected to increase to 135,000 ounces in 2013 and will increase to 150,000 ounces in 2014.At Jabali, exploration is ongoing to complete infill drilling of the Jabali Antenna Zone and further explore deposits that are open to the east and west. An additional $1.3 million of drilling has been budgeted in 2012 to upgrade the high grade resources at Jabali Antenna and for additional drilling of the San Juan deposit. Exploration drilling is also ongoing to further explore the 20 kilometre long Libertad gold belt. Further drill results will be released during the year.Limon Mine, Nicaragua (B2Gold 95%)The Limon open pit and underground Mine had an excellent quarter, achieving its highest quarterly output since B2Gold acquired the mine in 2009. The Limon Mine produced 12,715 ounces of gold at an operating cash cost of $704 per ounce and a total cash cost of $804 per ounce from 97,385 tonnes of ore milled at an average grade of 4.47 g/t at a processed gold recovery of 91.0%, compared to budget of 12,170 ounces at an operating cash cost of $717 per ounce. Production costs and output are now tracking budget due to improved grade primarily from the underground operation. Similarly to the Libertad mine, Limon production is budgeted to increase in subsequent quarters in 2012.For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Limon Mine generated gold revenue of $59.3 million from the sale of 35,710 ounces at an average price of $1,659 per ounce. Operating cash cost per ounce was $747 per ounce compared to budget of $742 per ounce. Gold production was 34,739 ounces compared to budget of 34,749 ounces.The Limon Mine is projected to produce approximately 48,000 to 50,000 ounces of gold in 2012 at an operating cash cost of approximately $700 to $725 per ounce of gold. Cash from mine operations at Limon is projected to exceed the original budgeted guidance of approximately $40 million (at $1,550 per ounce gold price).The Company is undertaking capital expenditures at the Limon Mine in 2012 expected to total approximately $21.3 million. The majority of this capital expenditure is funding a major underground mine development program and capacity expansion of the tailings pond. The underground development work is accessing deeper ore at the Santa Pancha vein, which should add approximately three years of production. Capital expenditures for 2013 are expected to be lower as the tailings pond work in 2012 will add approximately 5 years to its storage capacity.Successful exploration continues on the Limon property with two drill rigs exploring both near surface and underground targets with the goal of increasing the current five year mine life and testing higher grade targets.The 2012 exploration budget at the Limon property totals $4.6 million, funding 14,000 metres of drilling to explore numerous open pit and underground targets on the property. The Company's exploration team believes there is potential to increase the current mine life of the Limon Mine and also discover higher grade open pit and underground deposits that could potentially increase annual gold production and reduce operating costs per ounce of gold.Update on Proposed B2Gold and CGA MergerB2Gold and CGA recently announced that they have entered into a definitive Merger Implementation Agreement (see news release dated September 19, 2012) to combine the two companies. The transaction was valued at approximately C$1.1 billion on the transaction date.The transaction will be implemented by way of a Scheme of Arrangement under the Australian Corporations Act 2001 ("Scheme"). Upon completion of the Scheme, existing B2Gold shareholders and CGA shareholders will own approximately 62% and 38%, respectively, of the issued common shares of the combined company. The transaction is subject to regulatory, Australian Court, shareholder, and third party approvals, together with other customary conditions.The combination of B2Gold and CGA will result in a merged entity operating the Masbate gold mine in the Philippines, in addition to B2Gold's existing Limon and La Libertad gold mines in Nicaragua. B2Gold is well positioned to operate and progress further development at Masbate given its strong funding capacity and a management team with significant exploration, mine development and operating experience. With the addition of the Masbate Mine by way of the transaction, B2Gold expects to produce approximately 385,000 ounces of gold in 2013 and approximately 400,000 ounces of gold in 2014.A meeting of CGA shareholders to consider the Scheme and a meeting of B2Gold shareholders approving the issuance of B2Gold shares that will be issued in connection with the Scheme, will each be held the third week in December. Closing date is projected to be on or prior to January 31, 2013. Health, Safety, Environmental and Corporate Social ResponsibilityB2Gold continues its support for Nicaragua Community Programs and Initiatives in its operating communities and other locations. In the third quarter B2Gold received a National Award for Corporate Social Responsibility in the category of Sustainability and Environmental Initiatives from the group UNIRSE.At El Limon in the third quarter, B2Gold continued to support development of small business opportunities with the PYMES program and improvement of community roads. The community dialogue tables continue to serve as an effective forum for communications. Donations included an ambulance for community support, a need that was identified and prioritized at the community forum. New initiatives include a preschool planned for El Limon, to serve some 200 students.Development ProjectsOtjikoto Property, Namibia(B2Gold 92% / EVI Gold 8%)Exploration, feasibility and development expenditures for Otjikoto were $15 million for the first nine months of 2012 compared to the full year's budget of $43.5 million. Although the timing of payments has lagged the original budget, the project remains on schedule. The feasibility study is anticipated to be completed in the fourth quarter. The Company recently received approval of the Environmental Impact Assessment from the Government of Namibia and expects to receive the final mining license from the Government by the end of 2012. Mine construction will commence in the first quarter of 2013. Site preparation has already commenced as bush clearing is currently underway. Orders for equipment with a long lead time will be placed shortly and well within the time frame required for full scale production in January 2015. It is likely, however, that expenditures will be less than budget for 2012 and approximately $10 million will be deferred to the first quarter of 2013. The Otjikoto gold project has forecast average annual production of over 100,000 ounces of gold over a ten year mine life based on a Preliminary Economic Assessment released by Auryx Gold Corp. in September 2011.B2Gold Namibia's experienced staff is well placed to advance development at the Otjikoto gold project given B2Gold's existing cash position, cash from operations and strong financing capability and a management team with significant mine development and operating experience.Feasibility and exploration drilling is underway on the Otjikoto project which includes 16,150 metres of feasibility study drilling and a further 2,500 metres of exploration drilling to explore beyond the current resource at the Otjikoto project. Regional exploration work will also be conducted on the surrounding area.Gramalote Property, Colombia(B2Gold 49% / AngloGold Ashanti Limited ("AngloGold") 51%)The Gramalote project, located 80 kilometres northeast of Medellin in Central Colombia, had a 2012 joint venture prefeasibility and exploration budget of $36.9 million (100%), recently increased to $54 million. The amended budget runs to the end of November 2012 and an interim budget for the period from December 2012 to February 2013 is currently being discussed. The recent increase to the current year's budget is for additional land acquisitions, community and social obligations, and the engineering and test programs associated with potential upside project economics. Each joint venture partner will fund their share of expenditures pro rata. Due to the additional time required to evaluate the potential project scale and economics, the prefeasibility study is now scheduled to be completed in the first quarter of 2013 and a final feasibility study completed in early 2014.The Company believes the Gramalote project has the potential to become a large scale open pit gold mine (subject to completion of a feasibility study and financing).ExplorationIn addition to the exploration programs mentioned above, the Company is undertaking further exploration programs on the Trebol and El Pavon properties, the Radius Gold joint venture property and the Calibre Mining joint venture property in Nicaragua and the Cebollati property in Uruguay.In total, B2Gold's combined 2012 exploration budgets is approximately $36.1 million used to fund approximately 69,000 metres of drilling. Further exploration results will be released as they become available.BNY Mellon Appointed as Depositary Bank for the Company's Namibian Depositary Receipt ("NDR") Program on the Namibian Stock Exchange ("NSX")B2Gold is pleased to announce that it has appointed BNY Mellon, the global leader in investment management and investment services, as the depositary bank for its NDR program on the NSX. The program is the first ever NDR listing and the NSX becomes only the second stock exchange in Africa to list depositary receipts. B2Gold's common shares are listed on the TSX under the symbol "BTO". Each B2Gold depositary receipt represents 1 ordinary common share and trades on the NSX under the symbol "B2G".OutlookIn conclusion, given our proven technical team, strong operational and financial performance, financing capability and high quality development and exploration projects, B2Gold is well positioned to continue our growth as an intermediate gold producer from existing projects. Based on current assumptions the Company is projecting gold production to grow to over 700,000 ounces per year, subject to the closing of the transaction with CGA and assuming development of the Otjikoto and Gramalote Projects. In addition, the Company will continue to pursue accretive acquisitions and carry out our aggressive exploration programs as well as optimize production at current operations. The Company will be providing updated 2013 guidance in December once detailed budgets have been approved by the Board.Conference Call DetailsB2Gold will host a conference call and webcast to discuss the first quarter results on Wednesday, November 14, 2012 at 11:00 am PST / 2:00 pm EST.

Rifle - Westley Richards Carbine, 1863 Reg. No: ST 023855
- Summary:
- British Service percussion rifle, Westley Richards carbine, cal. .451 in., steel rifled (eight groove) round barrel, 636 mm long. Manufactured by Westley Richards, Birmingham, 1863.
Buttplate tang stamped 'P63/ 22/ V.V' denoting use by the Victorian Volunteer forces.
- Description:
- BSteel lock and hammer on R.H. side, steel oval triggerguard with small front spur, no sideplate, steel butt plate with hinged trap, non-standard sling swivel mounted off front barrel band, middle barrel band missing, rear swivel in butt missing. Dinstinctive Westley Richards breech loading mechanism with 'monkey tail' operating lever. Barleycorn foresight that has been largely removed, graduated rear sight with leather cover, 400 yards on the bed and 800 yards on the leaf, barrel fastened to stock via a steel barrel band and barrel key, missing middle half barrel band specific to Victorian models and from which the front sling swivel was typically mounted. Steel ramrod fastened in stock and unable to be removed.
Westley Richards carbines issued to Victoria had an additional middle barrel band minus its top strap across the barrel from which the front sling swivel was attached. This feature is specific to the Victorian issue models and often therefore these firearms carry the 'V.V' stamping on the butt tang to denote use by Victorian Volunteer units. The middle band is missing on this example..

When St. Mark Lutheran Church, Springfield, Va., started drilling on its land to install a geothermal energy system it struck gold — in the guise of granite, some 400-feet deep. Michael H. Taylor, pastor, said the experts told him the BTU rating of this rock is much greater than the typical geothermal properties of northern Virginia, which means a more energy-efficient, less expensive system. The church decided to switch to the geothermal system because of mounting utility bills and aging fossil-fuel equipment.

Margaret Thornby's credit crunch tea challenge
What's all this about?
Margaret Thornby has always promoted the use of loose leaf tea. She believes:
- Loose leaf tea provides the opportunity for enjoying the ritual associated with tea making – from warming the teapot, to brewing to a required strength, to using a variety of strainers. This makes the preparation and drinking of tea an even more social occasion to be shared with friends and family, or simply enjoyed and savoured alone.
- Loose leaf tea opens up the possibility for a much wider range of teas, from black teas to green and white teas, plus a huge variety of blends and good quality teas.
- Loose leaf tea is good value for money.
Margaret recently conducted a test on the cost of loose leaf tea versus tea bags and the results may surprise you as well as encourage you to make the switch, especially given the credit crunch. To test the costs, the price of loose leaf tea and the same or similar tea in tea bags was made – one with a well know food store tea and one with a well known tea merchant. At both 250g of loose tea of good quality cost £1.79, whilst 50 tea bags cost the same. What did this mean for the number of pots and cups of tea to be made?
The 250g of loose tea made 36 medium sized pots of good strength tea, subsequently providing 144 mugs of tea. The tea bags made either 1 mug of tea per bag if used singly, or 25 pots of tea and 100 mugs of tea. How does this relate to costs?
The cost, for a household with 4 people drinking 4 cups a day of loose leaf tea is 0.01p per cup, or £58.40 for the whole year.
The cost, for a household with 4 people drinking 4 cups of tea a day made in a teapot with tea bags is 0.02p a cup, or £116.80 year. EXACTLY DOUBLE THE COST OF LOOSE TEA.
The cost, for a household of 4 people drinking 4 cups of tea a day made singly with tea bags is 0.036p per cup, or £197.28 a year. MORE THAN TRIPLE THE COST OF LOOSE TEA.
Even given that people using tea bags may buy in larger quantities and may get the tea at lower cost, loose leaf tea will still be cheaper. Solution: beat the credit crunch and buy loose leaf tea!
Are you ready to take the tea challenge?
Increasingly, we hear that more people are beginning to take up, or taking up anew, drinking loose leaf tea. This includes people of all ages. Margaret Thornby is asking individuals, cafés, tea rooms, restaurants and hotels to take up the tea challenge. She wants you to give it a go!
For individuals, you may have been thinking about trying out loose leaf teas and just not quite taken the plunge yet. Is this the push you need? Cafés, tea rooms, restaurants and hotels may have considered it or, perhaps, written it off by arguing that it is 'too messy' or 'too time consuming' or 'too much trouble'. How about giving it a go? Today, there are many solutions to dealing with tea leaves, from the traditional tea strainer, to the more modern solutions like teapots with internal strainers, strainers that fit inside most pots, even 'magic' teapots. And, if you're wondering where you will dispose of the tea leaves, how about composting them or using them on your garden plants? If you have any tips, let us know.
Tell Margaret what you are doing
You will find, on this website, all sorts of tea information to help you get going, from people selling teapots and strainers to good tea merchants.
Get going. Take Margaret Thornby's credit crunch tea challenge now.

Tea words
Margaret Thornby, our tea and tea room researcher, has been looking at all the words ending in 'ty' and conjuring up interesting tea-related themes. We used one in the past, and this has been used by others – Charitea – but there are many, many more. How about Qualitea (a tea with good character perhaps?) or Crafty (a foxy little tea!)

From Our Editors
Like procuring a pet elephant, Cava's bowls are priced according to weight ($0.70 per ounce, $24,692 per metric ton), with a sizable hunk of greens, four to five fillers, cheese, and a vinaigrette averaging around $5. The process begins by selecting greens, which include arugula, Boston bibb, and spring mix, among others. Next, peruse and infuse an assortment of unprocessed fillers, including pumpkin seeds, quinoa, grape tomatoes, dried cranberries, and sweet potatoes. Top off the dish with one of Cava's vinaigrettes made from 100% extra virgin olive oil, aged vinegars, and concentrated dreams. Upgrade a bed of greens and things to the next level with the addition of seared salmon ($4.50), seared tofu with basil parmesan vinaigrette ($3.75), or sage-rubbed steak ($4.25). Aside from custom field blends, Cava also serves handmade soups and a variety of sparkling beverages, sport teas, and water.

God in the Dock: Essays on Theology and Ethics
Eerdmans Publishing Company, Mar 24, 1972 - Philosophy - 346 pages
"Lewis struck me as the most thoroughly converted man I ever met," observes Walter Hooper in the preface to this collection of essays by C. S. Lewis. "His whole vision of life was such that the natural and the supernatural seemed inseparably combined."
It is precisely this pervasive Christianity which is demonstrated in the forty-eight essays comprising God in the Dock. Here Lewis addresses himself both to theological questions and to those which Hooper terms "semi-theological," or ethical. But whether he is discussing "Evil and God," "Miracles," "The Decline of Religion," or "The Humanitarian Theory of Punishment," his insight and observations are thoroughly and profoundly Christian.
Drawn from a variety of sources, the essays were designed to meet a variety of needs, and among other accomplishments they serve to illustrate the many different angles from which we are able to view the Christian religion. They range from relatively popular pieces written for newspapers to more learned defenses of the faith which first appeared in The Socratic Digest. Characterized by Lewis's honesty and realism, his insight and conviction, and above all his thoroughgoing commitments to Christianity, these essays make God in the Dock very much a book for our time.

Review: God in the Dock: Essays on Theology and EthicsUser Review - Goodreads
Once again, CS Lewis never seizes to amaze me. He is at sometimes comical, darkly serious, and over all a great guide to have on a wonderful journey in understanding Christianity through fresh eyes and fresh hearts. Read full review

I dont understand why the small is the same inseam length as the medium. Why not make them an inch or 2 shorter for small people. People who wear size small. 31' long inseam is way too long
Dub, 6/16/15
Great fabric, great philosophy, unfortunately not a good fit. I bought the large for my husband 6'4 190#. Too big in the waist, not quite long enough.
No "beer belly", 3/28/15
Great material (I already own the hoodie);I'm tall without "beer belly" but just to get the desired length I ordered XXL?! Wow, another person could fit in. Maybe 2-3 inch of the waist and add 2 inch to the length and I'm in sweats heaven!!! XXL went back! Please help athletic and tall people who do not wear baggy pants between their knees?!!! Is that to much to ask?!!!
Danieli, 3/1/15
So, not a sweatpants kind of guy, that is how I would describe my son. I would always see men in sweatpants at the grocery or convenient store and think how creepy some of these guys looked. Sweatpants are just sloppy and unattractive, right? Well not THESE sweatpants! They fit just right, not too baggy, not too showing in the front if you know what I mean. All in all, these are the best, most comfortable, most well made and now most loved sweatpants my son has ever owned!!!
Ramiro, 2/24/15
I'm a 5'8 male with a 31-32 inch waist and 31 inseam for most pants. I would consider sizing down if you want these to fit well without having to use the drawstring to keep them up. I would definitely buy another pair and might try sizing down.
tall man, 2/19/15
If you're over 6 feet or have an inseam great than 32- which is an average man's inseam- these aren't for you. I'm 6'3 and was very dissappointed I had give my new expensive sweatpants to a friend.
JimUnit, 2/15/15
First of all I love, AG's sweatshirts, and really wanted to love the pants. But the fist was really weird for me. They are quite wide in the waist, with very little elastic, but the ankles are way too tight. I sent mine back a trying them on for like a second. I'd try them again if they added better waist elastic and made the ankles open.
Most comfortable sweatpants I have ever worn.
I wish more colours were available, and also a version without the ribbed gussets.
Amazing quality and thickness. I was wearing sweatpants when these arrived today and after trying these on the difference is night and day. These are like wearing thermals and sweatpants in one. The fit is good and I think these might actually outlast my sweatshirt that I also love!
Vic, 12/22/14
Heavy fabric, quality construction and a good fit that doesn't look sloppy. sizing runs a little big so consider sizing down if between sizes. I bought these especially because of the elastic cuffs at the ankles as I wanted sweats that didn't drag on the ground. These would get 5 stars if metal eyelets were on the waistband and the waistband itself was slightly elastic because when using the bathroom there's no give when tied and you need to untie everytime. Not a big deal though. Very satisfied!
Scott, 12/15/14
These are the best sweats I've ever had. Why only 4 stars? Because the women's are even nicer. Eyelets for the tie string, open bottoms instead of the elastic bands. Make a mens version, and that'll be 5 stars!
I like the old school sweat pants. I wear everything XL. These XL sweats are way tooo big. I'll have to try a M. Great material, they feel like they will last for ever.
SkinnyGiant, 12/10/14
4 stars for excellent quality but poor sizing. I have a 41" waist, 220lbs, and ordered a XL but it is HUGE. I think it measures around 44" and are super baggy. I would recommend AG fix the size chart as it is incredibly misleading. Definitely size down if you are thinking of getting a pair of AG sweats.
Chris, 12/8/14
Love almost everything about these. Fabric is nice, fit is good, overall design is great (love having rear pocket!)....but after two wears and their first wash a seam developed a split. The stitching basically opened up, it looks like the fabric was sewed too close to the edge. I was getting ready to leave for a trip and needed to take this with me so I swed them up as best I could and kept wearing them. American Giant would accept a return for the tear, but not sure about after I repaired them. Frankly, not worth the hassle at this point, but I'm stuck with flawed sweatpants that were pretty expensive. Without the failed seam I'd give the 5 star, but as is, 3 is the best I can do.
I did contact customer service when I first noticed it and they told me to send them back and reorder. Fair enough, but an offer to send replacement pair right away would have been nice.
RobertF, 12/2/14
These sweatpants are worth every bit! They are great for cold days since they are just are heavy and warm as the heavyweight hoodies. The cuffs at the ankles are well done and don't feel like they will lose their elasticity easily. I'm 5'10" 200 pounds and the XL size fits great. My waist size it 36, and my only minor gripe is that I wish the drawstring at the waist was a bit longer. I'd love to get another pair in Phantom Gray if they become available!! Since these are so heavy, midweight sweatpants, if they were available, would be better for warm weather.
Mind you, these are some of the best quality sweats I have founded. Truly rugged, thick material, heavy duty. I like them -- however, the fit is sub par for me. I'm 5'10", 150 lean -- so typically a small is the right size -- these are big and baggy on me. Tried them a few times in the washer to shrink them down -- no luck. I'll keep looking around for something with a better fit.
happy customer, 11/21/14
When I first put these on, I thought they were a little stiff and slim, and was considering sending them back for a larger pair. I am SO GLAD that I didn't. They stretched out to a perfect fit after a couple of hours of wear. I am a 5'8", 145lb, woman with an athletic build (read: big quads), and I ordered a size medium. I have never owned a pair of sweatpants that even come close to these. Every detail is perfect: they are soft, a great, heavier weight, they are a little slimmer in the lower leg, so they don't bag out over my sneakers. The banding at the waste and ankles is just slightly wider, making them fall perfectly (without looking like grandpa pants.) If you are really looking for a baggier fit, you may want to size up one, but I honestly wouldn't. It's hard to put into words what makes me so enthusiastic about these sweatpants, so I will have to just say that they are really high quality and perfectly cut.
Shota, 10/20/14
Have been comfortably wearing these for quite some time now, and the sweatpants are by far the best money can buy.
globetrotter, 10/13/14
I'm female, 5'4", 135lbs and own these in a size medium. A lovely employee at the SF AG store recommenden a size medium and she was spot on. Let me tell you, I do not want to take them off! Had I not spoken to anyone in person, I would have probably gone with a small, but in hindsight that would probably have been a stretch around the waist (I'm a womens 6-8, somewhere between 29 and 30). These sweatpants are super comfortable and heavy duty and they wash well. You will not regret this purchase.
Danad, 10/4/14
I ordered these last week because I have multiple hoodies that are staples of my wardrobe and love them so much, I thought these would be a great addition to my collection! It is exactly what you see in the pictures. These feel just as sturdy as the heavyweight hoodies. I'm 5'9" and 160 lbs and the medium fits perfect. I'm confident this will keep me warm in Wisconsin's brutal winters. These are worth the the extra money.
sixdegrees, 8/1/14
These aren't just for men… I 'm wearing the heather gray "small" as I write. I feel like I'm wearing a cloud…a 100% soft cotton cloud.
Thanks, American Giant for bringing quality back to clothing!
nick lucas, 7/26/14
I recently purchased your sweatpants. I thought you just couldn't get this kind of quality anymore. Keep up the good work.
museumgirl1, 7/18/14
Searched high and low for quality sweats for mr husband. These are perfect. He is 6'2", 250, with a 38-40 waist in pants and about a 50 chest. The XXL is a perfect fit. He loves that they have elastic at the bottom, as he sleeps in them. The fabric is heavy and feels high quality. Haven't washed yet, but so far they are a hit.
Robert, 5/22/14
Best I've ever owned. How about mid-weight? Also, would prefer draw string in same color as pants. That would be more subtle than the white one you use.
eric, 4/26/14
Got the navy love them. Wish you guys had more colors
Jungle Jim, 4/23/14
Good fit, accurate sizing, excellent cotton, and amazing workmanship. I like the flat tape waist band - better than all other brands.
Perfect sweats!
Cornelius, 4/2/14
The sweats are comfortable, but after wearing them once I noticed that the seam at the bottom of the crotch was opening due to faulty stitching. I wasn't doing anything vigorous during that wear, mostly running errands and lounging, so it is obvious it isn't due to wear and tear. I like the fit but expected better quality given my experience with American Giant's other products (2 sweatshirts and t-shirts).
Lunatic Hiker, 3/19/14
Oh my gawd! These things are amazing. I've never had sweat pants that I really liked...until now. Perfect fit, feel, and well made. I'm 5'11" with a 33"/34" inseam and the medium is perfect. I don't want to take them off.
cowboy, 3/19/14
I think these things have more cotton in then than my mattress.
And while heavy duty, they are extremely comfortable because they are designed, cut, and assembled properly.
I even think they might be chainsaw proof... but I'll hold off on that test.
All in all, at 55 y/o, I'm pretty sure they'll outlast me.
Sure beats the heck out of half plastic crud offered by overseas sweatshops.
JohnMac, 2/20/14
I consider myself a connoisseur of sweatpants and if I'm not going to church or a business meeting, that's what I'm wearing. Out of the box these were obviously thick and well made, but the fit was odd. I wore them for an hour around the house and they continually fell down in the back, no matter how tight I pulled the drawstring, they fell down. Also, they felt much tighter around the thighs than other brands. I really wanted to love these pants, and I have no issue paying the price if they fit well, but for me they just don't fit like Lands End or LL Bean. Perhaps more elastic in the waist would help. Just my opinion, as clearly many on this site love them.
Greg, 2/2/14
Over 20 years ago, I bought three pairs of gusseted Polo sweatpants. I've looked over the years for quality gusseted sweatpants, but haven't found anything until now. I'm 5'9", 190 pounds; the XLs fit me fine. When they become available again, I'm going to get another few pairs. Time to finally give the Polos a proper burial.
Chris, 1/24/14
Exceeded my expectations completely. I can wear these for days in a row. They look great with Nike shoes (Mayfly Wovens, Free Runs) And the cuffing at the bottom makes for great style.
They are indeed extremely durable for gym use and for lounging in.
They seemed a little pricey for sweatpants, but I don't regret my purchase one bit. I would love to buy a second pair sometime in the future.
tjl, 1/22/14
I loved these pants right out of the box. They're comfortable and fit well and seem durable so far. I have two critiques of the design that really interfere with my ability to continue to love them. The draw string at the top doesn't have anything to keep it from pulling inside the the waistband and getting lost. I've had to fish mine out a couple of times, which is a pain. The bigger issue is that the elastic strip inside the waist band doesn't stay flat. After the very first wash it folded over on itself and became warped. It was bunched and tighter in some areas than others. I can't get the elastic to lay flat by manipulating it from the outside, so it stays doubled over. The flat wide waist was part of what was super comfortable about these pants when I first put them on. If the waist had stayed that way they would be 5 star pants.
I'm not going to lie. I wear these things almost every night while I sleep and I'm the type of guy that doesn't like to wear much at night. It's a testament to how comfortable they are and how well they're made. I love American Giant stuff....
Sassypants, 1/4/14
These sweatpants are fantastic! Warm, soft, heavyweight cotton fleece fabric feels super comfortable. Construction is very impressive, and I especially like the deep front pockets. No worries about keys (or anything else) falling out of these pockets.
The waistband is very comfortable & well made with a drawstring that stays flat with no twisting.
I sized up to a medium to accomodate my thighs and butt, as well as for the longer inseam. (5'4", 120lb woman)
I like these pants so much, I've ordered another pair. These sweatpants are fleecy perfection.
kraigrs, 1/1/14
These puppies fit me so well that I promptly ordered a second pair. Whereas the XXL full-zip hoodie has a pretty tailored, slim fit (at least on my frame - 6'1", 250lb, 50" chest, 40" waist), the XXL sweatpants are a little baggier. Also like the hoodie, the construction and materials are unmatched. Would definitely recommend this product.
These sweats are built just like you expect them to be. Same super tough fabric as the hoodie, same attention to quality in the details and the construction. I have to ding one star for the sizing though. If you are even remotely in shape, it's very tough to get a good fit with these sweats. Get the length you want with too big a waist, or get the waist you want with too short a length. Pick your poison.
American Giant manufactures clothing in the USA, focusing on what matters- fabric, fit, construction, durability. We're committed to offering exceptional quality at a fair price. If anything you've purchased from us isn't living up to this commitment, please send it back to us for a full refund any time, for any reason.

I've been looking into building a co-sleeper hopefully one that would last to about 1 year, but due to lack of space it would be getting pretty tight by then but the theoretical dimensions would be 2' X 3' but more of a problem than the actual construction would be the mattress. the one I'm looking at currently is https://www.etsy.com/listing/99892842/wool-filled-cradle-mattress-with-wool?ref=favs_view_13 but sized to fit properly. the only thing that concerns me is the overwhelming opinion that babies need to be on very firm mattresses after they can roll and I'm not sure how solid something like this would be and I'm not sure how worried I should be about that?
It looks like your post may have been missed, so I am bumping it up for attention. Anyone have a recommendation or experience to share?

thanks for the bump, but after some more research it doesn't seem to be as big of an issue as I thought it might be. My only experience with wool mattresses was making doll beds with the scraps from spinning and needle felting, but apparently the real process leaves you with a fairly sturdy pad, so I'm pretty confident that it shouldn't be an issue.

From a business owner and marketer Television is best known to make stars and images. As a business Television is best used in your marketing plan to create your businesses image.

While everyone talks and talks about how you should use social media, and if you follow their 10 steps you're sure to succeed if you pay attention the one category that is using twitter the right way is our local journalists.

Online Advertising in the Age of Adwords
With the advent of our new economy, we're seeing a pretty significant move from traditional media dollars to online media. The reasons are several-fold. Traditional advertising takes a big bite out of a limited marketing budget. Online advertising is quite cheap in comparison with traditional media. Marketing budgets are getting smaller - not larger. Online advertising allows you to track your results and monitor impressions vs clicks. There are many venues for online advertising, each with a slightly different approach. Surely one will fit ...

Using and Buying Media Wisely
This seems like a good time, before we get fully into planning season, to talk about the best uses of media. I touched on this briefly in my recent post the Intersection of Planning and Improvisation. But this is really a topic that deserves a full post before annual plans are laid for 2011.

Keeping it Simple
For most small business owners dealing with the media is like dealing with an ever-changing alphabet soup. This is primarily because the language of media is cluttered with acronyms. And understanding each acronym is necessary to getting the most out of your media buy.

Chuck Friend has accomplished a great deal during his 35-year high school football coaching career.
Friend was able to reach the top twice during his time with Starkville High School as the Yellowjackets won state championships in 1994 and 1995.
It was moments like those that has led Friend get to the doorstep of the Mississippi Association of Coaches Hall of Fame.
On Friday, Friend will be inducted into the MAC Hall of Fame. The banquet takes place at the Hilton Hotel in Jackson at 6:30 p.m.
Friend doesn't brag on himself when he considers what being included in the MAC Hall of Fame means, but yet choses to reflect on all of those individuals that helped him get there.
"It means you've coached a good many years and you had a bunch of good players while you were coaching," Friend said. "It's an individual honor, but at the same time, there are a bunch of good guys and administrators that I've worked with for a number of years."

I am running version 1.7.3. Great so far.! FOR Mailchimp with API ID's being used, the standard shortcode works fine. BUT
1) When my email is already subscribed on the list it says "Enter email" again. Should say your "already subscribed", would be better.
2) When I am logged in, and tyring to post a comment, it doesn't subscribe at all, even with EMAILS not already on the list. May be same for other standard forms.
3) When one signs up for a form, at least from the widget intiated form, once they subscribe, and hit refersh on the page, it tries to subscribe them again, resulting in multiple email optin confirmation messsages. Its not until after they confirm, do they stop coming.
1) Can you configure the shortcodes so that it accepts another LIST ID, that way we can use multiple LIST Subscriptions on ONE WP install.
2) A checkbox that is used to PREVENT double opt-in (FALSE flag in the docs)
Is any of it because of WP multiste?

The strike is well above average, with much better definition on the denticles than is typically seen. MRB MS64.(Registry values: N1793) (NGC ID# 226K, PCGS# 1903)

41 year old man | Austin, TX, USA | Seeking women 30-36 within 50 miles
I am a creative person but I am also very practical. I gravitate more toward craft than art. I like the idea that everything we are surrounded by can be both beautiful and useful. Anyway, I like making stuff. I have done a bit of renovation work at places I've lived. I also like making music. Music is an important part of my life and I enjoy playing brass in community groups. I am an easygoing person and I seek the same in a partner. I am attracted to people who smile. :) As far as an ideal date goes, I think that with the right chemistry anything can be fun. I am finally back home in Austin (YAY!) after finishing graduate school in Boston and working a little while in San Antonio. Looking forward to exploring the things that have changed since I left (which seem to be quite a lot).

Some other viewpoint
Austin, Texas; Paris, France; any train, anywhere in Europe; places that serve tater tots and/or Frito pie; places that bring you a red-colored wine when you ask for a Zinfandel...
Boston University, Boston, MA
I love jump blues and big band blues from the 1950's. And gypsy brass bands. Apples with peanut butter-crunchy, of course. I like peanut butter with only two ingredients. Sausage, egg, and cheese on an English muffin. Iced tea... so little space ...
