It's perhaps worth repeating for those new to the rainwear discussion since we last had it that "breathable" waterproof/repellent modern fabrics worn at aerobic levels of activity (regardless of outside temperature) rapidly feel like wet trash bags inside because they can not keep up with the amount of vapor the body puts off (and can't handle liquid sweat at all) so it rapidly because just as wet on the inside as if nothing was worn. Ventile, on the other hand, breathes like a cotton t-shirt does, and if it has a layer of "cotton analogy" that uses capilary action to push vapor AND liquids out, it stays stunningly dry with high levels of activity even in day long pouring conditions. This is critical when the temps are in the 20-60˚F range.
Ventile is great. Only thing is, Ventile's pretty hot to wear when it's 70 degrees or above.
