Is your old Alp X the original GORE-TEX Paclite one.
Yes, its about a 7 year old Paclite. Not very packable in that it doesn’t fit in a jersey pocket, so I have to either wear it for the whole ride or not at all. Could be a bit more breathable too?!
I’ll only be using it for road really.
The ONE GORE-TEX Active which is made of the new ‘SHAKEDRY’ fabric is really fantastic
That’s the one I’m referring too. Personally, I’m leaning for towards the Oxygen, as the extra features on the ONE seem minimal for the price tag. A bottle of DWR is about a fiver. I have not yet handled or seen one yet. I presume part of the costs are to do with production being in relatively small numbers at the moment?
Cheers DiscJockey good to hear its packable! My current one certainly isn’t.
