The Escape Jacket is made utilizing 2-layer GoreTex which incorporates a hung mesh lining. The Xenon Jacket is made utilizing a heavier duty face fabric and the PacLite laminate from GoreTex. 2 very different laminates and 2 very different designs and jacket construction. Both jackets will keep you dry in bad weather but they are very different jackets. Hope this helps!
