I am a total eVent and Westcomb whore. Can someone please tell me any first hand experience with this jacket. Granted it is brand spanking new, but man I cannot wait to get my hand on this. Now I just need to save up my Pennies.

"If it's the technical textiles you like check out the new Cloudveil Koven Plus. It uses the new Schoeller c_change material; even better than eVent." This statement is false... If breathability is the goal here, there is nothing better than eVent. Westcomb will be using Schoeller c-change material in a couple of new jackets for next year, but only in stretch panels. eVent is still the most breathable in any weather condition according to them. The new c-change material is amazing stuff, but eVent is the undisputed champ when it comes to keeping the user dry both from the elements and from their own sweat. If you want the most technical piece of outerwear which has to include; fit, materials, features, construction, breathability, wearability, durability, and simply looking good, the Westcomb Vapor FX Hoody is the shiz-nit.
