Any opinions on this?
Why did they change from eVent, supposedly the wonder fabric, to PTFE..? Has anyone got any experience of this jacket..?
Will I cook?

I've got one.
Bought it in a sale in the middle of last year, and frankly I'm pretty impressed.
I've got nothing to compare my to though, as up until now I've always used walking jackets and berghaus stuff.
Bought it for all of the pit zips, and the fact that it looked and felt pretty hard wearing.
I've not taken a fall in it yet, but did in an old goretex jacket which was completely trashed!
The material feels a bit stuff, but it's never caused me any bother and it comes with enough pockets to lose things in.
I've not found to to be too hot either, but temperature seems to be a very personal thing. It's certainly cooler than my berghaus soft shell.
It hasn't leaked yet ether, and I've never washed/reproofed it.

I find the Venturi II pretty warm compared to, say, a Pac-lite shell. This time of year, I just wear a long sleeve base layer under it and I'm still cooking after a while.
