carlhulit Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Anyone have one of these? If so how is it holding up, is it as waterproof as gore-tex, how is the breathability? Im looking at buying one as they make a tall with sleeves that are long enough for me, an unmatched feat as far as I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocodove Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I have one of last year's models that I got for a screaming deal and I'm pretty happy with it. It's pretty burly and have found "breathability" to be on par with Gore Tex (which means adequate for me). It has pit zips, which helps. My comparison is an EMS paclite shell and and older Lowe Alpine shell and I like it a lot better than either of those. Haven't had it in anything but snow/light rain and it's been plenty waterproof for those. All in all it is very well made. I'd suggest waiting for the inevitable EB holiday sales as I think full retail is paying too much. And hey, Ed Viesturs "designed" it so how bad could it be .
