Can't wait to see how it shapes up. Thinking it may be a replacement for my Vapour Rise/ Shell combo when active on winter tours.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113976429882261890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063908328061898266.post-71770260796934464162011-02-11T22:30:09.136+00:002011-02-11T22:30:09.136+00:00Dave, the nearest Paramo jacket is probably the Vi...Dave, the nearest Paramo jacket is probably the Vista, though there's no exact equivalent. Finisterre's system works just like Paramo's. I haven't noticed any difference, other than the closer cut. At half price I would say it's an excellent buy.<br /><br />Mac E, there is no branding on the cuff tabs. They're just too long and in the wrong place.Chris Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04282926597863688874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063908328061898266.post-65731633746128678262011-02-11T21:28:15.481+00:002011-02-11T21:28:15.481+00:00Interesting gear this Chris.

How does this two layer system differ to/ compare with paramo and which paramo jacket would you say is it most directly equivalent to? Right now the Storm Track and Humbolt are half price. I'm sorely tempted by what seems like a lot of jacket for so little money!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17113976429882261890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063908328061898266.post-76066647172222091872011-02-10T22:25:33.573+00:002011-02-10T22:25:33.573+00:00An interesting development from Finisterre and goo...An interesting development from Finisterre and good to see another alternative to Paramo if only for reasons of cut.<br /><br />I notice your comment regarding the cuff tabs, I personally fail to see any advantage in having stiff rubberised or whatever cuff tabs when self fabric (i.e. made from the same fabric as the rest of the garment) works much better and is less likely to catch on glove Mac Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11212410938991488721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063908328061898266.post-10354685028095427892011-02-10T18:15:47.699+00:002011-02-10T18:15:47.699+00:00Interesting review.
