I think that you should learn about outdoor gear and how it's tested via the links I posted and not complain about my posting style for two posts in a row without bringing any valuable information to the discussion.
Now I know about another high priced boutique operation.
FYI, I searched the Showers Pass web site and saw reference to the "technical" clothing and "high-performance "materials , but not one mention of ISO-anything. Buzz words do make good ad copy and may help justify the price tags for those impressed by it. Nice dreamy pictures of good looking Millennials wearing while at play also doesn't hurt the image that is being promoted.
