Hmm, I'll keep this in mind for the next time I want to spend $350 or $400 more on a jacket than I usually would. :lol:

No different than paying $60k for a Lexus when a $15k Hyundai will get you to the same place...those who can afford it and don't mind paying for it, will.

It's a little different... but it depends on how much you value the larger, more luxurious, more featured and more powerful Lexus.

A big issue with these jackets is that you're paying an awful lot of money and you don't seem to be getting the materials to go along with it.

I agree. The reason why I love outdoor gear is that it's meant for the outdoors and not some jacket from Target.

Check these sites and some of you will understand.

but you are getting the name and now everyone you meet will know that you own a gitzo tripod ... and you do know that not all carbon fiber is made the same :D?
