[QUOTE="pyroducksx3, post: 976284, member: 20443"] None of the hard shell rain gear is "quite" the brushed face stuff is much quieter but it saturates, is heavier and takes longer to dry back out again. Not saying is brushed face rain gear sucks but these different types of rain gear have strengths and weaknesses. For me if it's raining hard enough that I need rain gear then the noise is probably covered up by the rain. Also no matter how "breathable" rain gear says it is rain gear just isn't that breathable. If you are moving a lot you will probably be sweating and getting wet from the inside. So when it rains I'm just not moving much so again I'm not that worried about the noise hardshell makes. I have used kuiu and kryptek to be honest most of the top end stuff is going to be pretty compatible. I like kryptek and first lite better as companies than kuiu so I usually look to them for my selections. When I'm hunting from a cabin or wall tent I usually choose a dwr soft shell and have been happy with these jackets. [/QUOTE]
