Why, you ask? Isn't Gore-Tex Gore-Tex? Yes and no. The way that OR constructs their Enigma Jacket gives you what I call "mechanical breathability." Instead of just having pit zips like everyone else does, this jacket has "Torso Flow" which gives you the choice to do a pit zip option from top down or a hem zip UP to allow for better air flow through your torso. It also allows for you to have this flow even when wearing a harness or hipbelt.
The fit of this jacket is awesome and work great with the Aria Down Hoody as a layering piece. LOVE IT!
