The Shralpinist gear is intended for extreme weather conditions or extended expeditions where you can only wear a jacket and pants, so it needs to perform in all conditions for a long time. I took my Shralpinist gear on two expeditions to Alaska last season and lived through some of the most extreme weather I have ever witnessed for over six weeks. The waterproofness and durability of the Shralpinist jacket and pants were essential for trips like these where getting wet could have resulted in a dangerous situation.
