Outside Edge donate kit for testing

Thank you very much to Outside Edge in Oban, who have very generously donated a women's Montane Lite-Speed windproof for testing during training and the challenge in May. Being made from the highest quality Pertex Microlight (rip-stop), the jacket weighs in at 150g. The Lite-Speed is completely windproof and quick drying, with an apparently durable water repellency (DWR). It also packs down into a tiny weeeny stuff sack of its own.

I have previously only used a Rab smock windtop without a hood, so i'm interested to see how the Pertex Microlight fabric compares and also whether the front zip and hood prove useful on the hill.

Please see the 'KIT' tab for more details on this item and for performance reviews (...in due course!)

Thanks again to Dave Bleazard!
