By Ranked #368 - Men's Technical Shells November 19, 2008

What is the durability of this jacket as far as going through trees and thicket, I absolutely destroyed a Gore paclite jacket last year when I wore it hunting (I think there is more area treated with seam seal than isn't). will this hold up to thorns and and brush and the rest of the stuff or am I still stuck buying a hiking/ski jacket and a hunting jacket, I hate most companies' hunting jackets because they don't breath well or are rediculously insulated and don't allow proper layering.

I would definitely not go anywhere near sharp/jagged objects. This jacket would not hold up at the 20D material weight
