[QUOTE="Buano, post: 551556, member: 21641"] I've used the Sitka rainwear / outerwear for several years and it is not at all noisy when compared to similar offerings from other manufacturers. I did snag my Ascent pants & tore a 2" hole in a cuff this last winter. They are not invincible but for a backpack hunt I firmly believe there is nothing better. I would NEVER opt for a down jacket on a backpack hunt. If down gets wet it collapses & loses all its' insulation value — and it can take DAYS to dry. A good polyester-fiberfill coat makes much more sense as they are almost as warm as down but retain much of their insulation value when wet & dry almost instantly. [/QUOTE]
