To be fair, Berghaus athlete Philip Gatta used his first generation Hyper Smock rather more extensively than that on the 1200km Great Himalayan Trail and the fabric is, we think, rather less fragile than you might imagine, but for most of us, it makes more sense as a ‘sometimes’ option.

I might give the AQ2 trousers a try, based on gethin_allen's recommendation, see how i get on with the Hydroshell jacket around town, and keep an eye out for discounts on the goretex options. The soft, comfortable feel is backed up with high wicking, breathable qualities to give you a versatile top. The fabric is filmy and semi translucent, giving the unit a 23% more packable rate, perfect for those conscious about weight on a trek.I've always been super pleased with my berghaus deluge trousers made of AQ2 (aquafoil2) material and I imagine a jacket made from the same stuff would be great. With this in mind get ready to feast your eyes upon the next generation of Berghaus waterproof technology, Hydroshell.

has struck me as possibly too hot, and heavy, for summer use, but then i haven't really given it a try. If you do need it though, it will do the business and has been carefully refined compared to the first generation smock. Anyway, the fabric seems entirely waterproof and breathable, it's just I like doing things like breathing and using my hands, which results in holes!
