Just found it googling around, researching for my next shell purchase.<br /><br />I know this thread is 6 months+ old, but Im wondering if you/someone here ever got around to try neoshell pants (personally looking at the RAB stretch neo). Are they as "do-it-all" as the jackets, or are they too warm to wear as hardshells usually are in pants, except in severe weather?<br /><br />Thanks for useful insights!<br /><br />/PablitoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-79475778985434897872011-06-04T09:10:57.009-07:002011-06-04T09:10:57.009-07:00sdizzle..sorry I missed this.

Not the same technology for the problem but I use them in a similar manner so interesting comparison for me anyway. Written comparison coming later. Spantik/6000...durability? Seeme they are neck on neck from what I have seen.<br /><br />But give it a few seasons yet to get a better idea. 6000 is basically a new boot this year. Way more Spantiks out there.Danehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08300760603627210620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6940163880772720830.post-46060467019675274582011-05-18T10:35:44.247-07:002011-05-18T10:35:44.247-07:00any insight as to which of the new materials (MH D...any insight as to which of the new materials (MH Dry-Q, Gore-Tex Active shell, Neoshell etc) will be the most breathable?
