![]() It's made from a breathable Gore-Tex 3-layer laminate and 20-denier nylon ripstop fabric face so durability isn't an issue. It has the durability you need and is lightweight so it won't weigh down your backpack when you don't need it. Sitka set out to build the lightest weight rain gear out there that is not made the same as the rest. From bushwhacking in thick timber to navigating scree fields and then working through a burned tangle mess of a mountain… the Dew Point is not only lightweight but also durable and ready to keep you at the ready. The jacket only weighs 12.5 ounces and the pants weigh 10.5 oz, which is Sitka's lightest full set of rain gear.Īlso when hunting mule deer or any species in the West I need a rain gear system that can hold up to the rigors of the mountains. ![]() ![]() So having rain gear that doesn’t drag me down is HUGE! I have used the older version of the Dew Point and I really appreciate the thought behind them and I can confidently say that for 2021, Sitka stepped up big time with the new Dew Point. I love lightweight gear because I carry extra weight in my pack such as camera gear and a big optics setup. Like just mentioned, I've been fortunate to have tested the new Dew Point rain system the entire 2020 hunting season and it worked like a dream! After a year of using the new Dew Point, I'm even more impressed on the new system! This is an upgrade over their older Dew Point series that I have used a ton back in the day. Today Sitka has launched their new for 2021 Dew Point rain jacket and pants. you will no longer ever have to worry about that problem again! Just about everyone understands the importance of quality rain gear, but a lot of people don't enjoy keeping it in their backpack due to weight and bulk. There's nothing that will wreck your day more than a rainstorm and not having the quality gear you need to keep hunting. My favorite rain gear system is back and better than ever!
