Okay. Been looking for a good shell for years now. Need suggestions. My ancient Marmot is well and truly dead.
Requirements:
Requirements:
- Really waterproof. Like, in actual rain.
- Very slim fit. Many brands are a joke on me. I can't size down, generally, because I'm already a small. Flylow lab coat small Could put three of me in that thing. Same with many other models.
- No orangutan arms. Arcteryx - no bueno.
- Actually available to buy.
- Under $400. (Euro brands seem to get sizing better, but stupid expensive.)
- soft / quiet fabric
- two-way front zipper
- powder skirt
- cuff Velcro that doesn't wear out after a couple seasons
- Interesting earthy but not muddy colors (like Arcteryx)
