Goretex, minimum, then what you can afford-
As everyone knows I swear by Rukka!
Why are they so much more expensive than other goretex clothing?
Quality? although the best I've used it's not infallible!
The after sales service is the reason! -
5 year guarantee, in which time if you have any problems whether it's with waterproofing, zips or anything you order in a 'loan' jacket or trousers which you have whilst your clothing is sent back to the factory and tested, this is then either repaired or replaced.
Going through this system I started with their entry level gear, when they've replaced damaged clothing I've upgraded everytime, I now have their ArmaS trousers (£770)
A lot of money? Shit yeah, however that's £770 over the last 5 years with another 5 year guarantee to come, works out relatively cheap over 10 years compared to the next best product which will need replacing after a couple of years!
