So in my personal opinion, it's a pretty awesome piece of gear. It is not as light as say the Sitka Dewpoint but I like the heft of the Jacket/pant, it feels thick enough that I'm not going to worry about any water hitting me even in a torrential downpour, Also it breaks down easy one time just to see if I could I balled up the Jacket and pants and Stuffed them in the hood of the jacket which looked rather silly but it was good to know it breaks down so small For long hikes, Backpacking or multiday Hunting trips where Size conservation in my pack is key. I will say it feels like it weighs more than Say the Dewpoint but not so much that it would weigh me down considerably on any longer trips, another small con to the gear other than the thickness and being a little heavier than other rain gear is sizing in my personal experience it runs a little small, Like I'm almost 6'2" and 230lbs and I'm a little broad in shape, and I normally wear an XL but in this Rain Gear I got XXL mostly just so that I could pull it out of my pack and throw it on over other layers and because in my standard XL size it was little tight feeling on my shoulders and sides but Experiences may Vary, sorry for the long post was just hoping to help anyone hopping in this thread looking for info!!!!!
