Subject: Re: Non-breathable raingear.

"Everyone knows" that rainjackets and trousers need to be waterproof
/breathable or you get lots of condensation. Then Brawny goes and completes
her AT walk saying good things about her silnylon raingear and not mentioning
any problems. Being an admirer of the Trailquest products, I suspect that I
and others could save money and weight by using non-breathable gear.

Am I right? Brawny and others with experience of non-breathable raingear
please tell us the pros and cons.
