Re: [RC] Rain Gear - Sky Ranch

We're not supposed to "DITTO" to the list, but I can't help it -- GoreTex is
the best.  I've had a GoreTex -40 degree parka for 10 years now, and it is
unsurpassed in warmth, and repelling water and wind.  With this coat, I've
never been cold, even in minus 30 degrees, blowing snow, high wind.

You never go wrong with Gore-Tex.  Each time I've tried to economize and
get
a less expensive shell it hasn't worked.  Either it turns out not to be
waterproof at all and I get soaked with rain within seconds, or even worse
it IS waterproof but doesn't breathe and I'm soaked with sweat in a few
minutes.  Neither is what I have in mind.  Gore-Tex does require some
special care, as per directions on each garment, but IMO it's worth the
extra money and extra care.
