Hey guys, I am testing out SKRE's backpacker friendly Nebo rain gear. I've had a set for around 2 months and with that dried up all of our weather here in northern Nevada at least on my days off. As Murphy would have it, any weather we get I am at work. I did however get to try it out the first day I got it on a major down pour. Sorry I couldn't take any pics as I was trying to keep my house from flooding. I did take it shed hunting the other day and what was supposed to be just high winds turned into snow on the ground. I was able to hike in it for around 5-7 miles through some thick brush to really test the durability. I have to admit, I was scared however it came out unscathed.
What I like the most about it is the fit of the hood. It's cinches tight around your head and moves with it while rotating horizontally.
Size wise SKRE is breaking tradition and actually running this more true to size! I have a set of mediums and they fit great. I will post more detail on other cool features in a later post along with specs. So far I think SKRE did a great job with this one.
