Well the All Weather Suit did ok since its about 2/3 the weight,,, mother nature put it and me to the challange out West.
Second day forced me to 1 of the 4 shelter pods back there.
High winds, dark black clouds of frozen rains followed by sticky snow.
My rifle became a walking stick. Ha. One good thing about what we have going this year is the smaller zone, and the shelters.
Water proof Eskin is the way to go. Light weight, flexible, and dry. Im on the search for more of this stuff.
The suit I have is 3X so it fits over top of clothing, or can be folded up to fit under. Being thin makes it easy to fold up and pack.
A Eskin suit weigths about 3/4 to 1 pound, very stretchy, that way it stands less chances of puncturing or tearing.
I'll be making my own suits this winter so I can add features as needed.
Venting is 1 of the ideas.
