FLCL?
I am slowly expanding my wardrobe and gear for backpacking and mountaineering. Right now I am missing a good outer shell.
Since I know some folks here are more in to it, I thought I would ask.
What should I be looking for when buying one?
I realize it needs to be durable, more or less light. It's not insulated as that comes from layering underneath. The hood needs to be helmet compatible.
Anything else?
What materials should I be looking at? I guess Gore-tex, but there seems to be varieties.
Thanks.
