Best Backpacking Podcast

Episode 54: You’re Gonna Get Wet

On this episode we discuss how to choose rain gear for your next hike, and define what “waterproof” really means. We also share two kinds of ratings that you should look for and different rain gear fabrics that will help you determine what to buy for your outdoor adventure. What exactly to look for depending on where you will be going and what key rating is important.

What we talk about:

  • Is Waterproof a reality or a dream?
  • Welded Seam VS Stitched Seam
  • Is Gortex the best?
  • Fisherman know the best rain jackets, but boy do they sweat
  • Shawshank Redemption and Andy Defrane
