We are beginning to get closer to a usable definition of the types of sports we want to cover on the site (AFAIKS). But what about questions on equipment?

From http://meta.sports.stackexchange.com/q/8/38What should our FAQ contain? questions on equipment in general seems to be on topic.

What about question on the various pro et con for equipment for a particular use? E.g.

  • the different types of water-belts for long distance running?
  • add-on spikes when running in the winter?
  • running apps for mobile devices versus dedicated watches?

Yet we don't want the obvious shopping questions - e.g. "which ... should I buy".

How do we distinguish general equipment questions from shopping questions - that seems a little fuzzy to me.
