Write your question here... This looks like what I need but I want a jacket with gortex in it. Does this one have gortex? If not, is there a jacket that is similar that you might suggest?? Thanks, Kelli

As you may know the patent on GoreTex has expired, so many manufacturers now make a breathable/waterproof material with the GoreTex technology. If you want GoreTex fine, but be aware it's not as important a distinction as it was in the past.

How much would you like to spend. The closest price wise to this Exposure Jacket on the site is the Typhoon Jacket that is made with PacLite from GoreTex. We make them in both Men's and Women's. If you are looking for an equally tough jacket... then you would have to look towards either the Xenon Jacket from Hardwear or anything else utilizing ProShell from GoreTex. So, then the question becomes is Gore more important or toughness... or both? I hope these suggestions help.
