All I need now is something fully waterproof, preferably lightweight so I can keep it folded away if I don't need it.

Looks almost perfect but it's only weather resistant rather than waterproof

If you have some good ones. I'm always more interested in the tech, so for if you have any info to post with pictures that would be good too.

Here's a good sized guide on the basics of tech and whatnot. Don't know if you've read it or not.

>>10846492

Try something from Arc'Teryx then. Unfortunately they've shifted to bright colors (which is good for alpinism I guess) and their Veilance Line is expensive as all hell. Look at the Beta LT or Alpha SL depending on your protection needs

>>10846436
If you have ones with actual interesting technical clothing and not just people posing in black cotton
>>
>>10846413
I feel like there is too much color in this wardrobe.
>>
First off, most of all, fuck LEAF, law enforcement, armed forces, and the earnest fetishization of "tactical" as the pinnacle of human and equipment excellence.

Second, fuck the idea that how much your clothing closes you off from the world is a measure of how sophisticated or well-developed or technical it is, this "only weather resistant stuff," as if not being rained on was the only important thing. The people this stuff were developed for didn't want to not get rained on as an end in itself - they wanted to not get rained on because as they threw themselves into flooding forests and dripping ice they wanted to stay dry enough to stay alive and keep going. They had a purpose beyond rubbing cum on the inside of a membrane.

Third, fuck the related kind of purism that acts as if cotton clothing can't be functional, or satisfying, or technical, or somehow pertain to the kind of stuff people go to techwear threads to talk about. If you're bored by some particular clothing, fine, post something you're actually interested in. The best way to see the kind of space and discussion you want is to make it instead of complaining. Yes, that applies to me, too, but fuck it.

The North Face Venture is probably one of the best waterproof jackets and it's under $100
>>
>>10847747

You realize LEAF is built and marketed for, actual military professionals right? It's not like Acronym where they're just for rich techwear enthusiasts. (I'm not sure how popular Acronym is outside of the high-end fashion world, I've never heard of it until about a years ago)

In everyday urban usage, nobody is going to notice the difference between the various WPB membranes, especially not at the low end. Just buy the one you prefer.

>>10847747
That's some quality cringe material man. Angry at techwear means you're angry at life.

So, that being said, how are you doing? What's bothering you?
>>
>>10850538
I wear all of my stuff in the great outdoors as well as in the city, and I would have to say that the Torrentshell is one of the better options available right now. Sierra Trading Post is a nice stop to find things like this, as well as better stuff from Marmot and Arc'teryx for good prices.

I'll be around if you have any more questions.
