Didn’t see a thread for this in the Editorial Roundtable.
The Nunatak Skaha Plus was dinged for durability (and lack of pocketsessss) in the most recent BPL Review. In fact it got the lowest score in that regard. The review mentioned “delicate” and “fragile” and seemed to place quite a bit of the onus on the shell material, an 0.85 oz/yd DWR material. Has anyone else found the Skaha to be particularly delicate compared to the other jackets in the review (ie, the Western Mountaineering Flight)? Perhaps Don Wilson could clarify what he found to be more fragile on the Skaha. Did something actually break or tear?
