Altura steps up to mix it with the PacLite’s with their own taped 2.5 layer proofing. Neat touches include the externally taped chest pocket along with zip bay at the collar. Packing to similarly minute dimensions as Gore’s jacket, it only really lacks the sleeve articulation. This said the close fit works well in the performance orientated field with shoulder panels avoiding pack related seam wear.
