Pack - Sierra Designs Revival (I know some of you will think I'm nuts for using an internal frame, but this pack has been amazing for me)
Shelter - GoLite Shangri-La 2 (still relatively new with this, but I've been liking it so far)
Pad - Thermarest Zlite (love this classic ultralight pad. Comfy for me, and not a problem space-wise with some shock cord on the outside of my pack)
Boots - Lowa Ranger (incredible boot. period.)
Optic - Vortex Diamondback 8x42
The Lowa Rangers...they've just been phenomenal. I honestly don't think I'll ever buy a different boot.
