I hardly need technical waterproof clothing when we get a citywide average (more in east, less in west) of 9” per year, but I’ve been caught in winter SW down pours wearing a very thin Specialized cycling windbreaker (easily wads up small enough to fit into a jersey pocket) over 1 or 2 wool layers and I’ve been comfortable despite the rain or sleet; of course, our downpours tend to be very brief.
So my question is, would a very light windbreaker type of overlayer that blocks the wind and at least “resists” rain worn over a layer or 2 of good merino wool work in wetter climates? This is academic curiosity as I have no plans to move to a wetter climate. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
