I noticed this about the $150 eVent jacket.
"When it comes to waterproof and breathable, eVent® fabrics reign supreme. eVent® is made with an ePTFE membrane that does not require a polyurethane coating for protection from oils. With an MVTR of 17,000 g/m2/24hr, our eVent® fabric is exceptionally breathable. And with a waterproof rating of 10,000 mm"
Why are these numbers lower than what I typically see for eVent????
those are sick deals … ice screws for 30$ … harnesses for $15 … full even jackets for $150
too bad they dont ship to canada
Oh man this is bad news for my wallet…those jackets better sell out fast.
…just tried to get a Large. OOS. Only med left now.
Eric:
I'll be happy to help you with shipping to Canada — at cost. PM me.
Ben, you are sooooo evil!

Do those eVent jackets have pit zips?
Check out the "Magic" wind shirts and pants– 3.2-6oz and $36 each :)
They have framed packs in the $75-80 range if you climb or ski. One sizer's though…
The eVENT jacket does not have pit zips.
i didnt think that event needed pit zips…as the sweat will just go right through anyway
nm
For the better :P (for me at least)
I did pick up a Magic Anorak, a new ice axe leash, and a hat. Thanks OP
I contacted Westcomb and got…..
Hi John,
We'll add you to the list. Yes, we are having a sale probably on the weekend of the 17th October. We'll shoot you an email.
Thanks,
Chance
if there's one mirage event jacket left … we're going to have a fight to the death over it =P
last year they had a lot of jackets and pants CHEAP … i mean 1/3-1/2 price or less
u REALLY dont want to drive up from seattle that week until i get my stuff ;)
lol
I'm in contact with that last CAMP event jacket seller on ebay in a red medium. Here are the specs for fit . Pit to pit is 22"
Pit to sleeve cuff is 23"
Shoulder to waist is 25"(in front, back slightly longer)
Color is red/gray as pictured before.
Price?- the auction went for $150 I think, although the jacket is valued at $450. Contact me if you'd like to be put in touch with the seller as it is not currently listed. I have no interest in the jacket as it would not fit me. This is just a favor to those who were interested before the stock sold out .
Hey Eric, if you live in the Vancouver area.. ship to the "Letter Carrier" (google it)

I've never had a problem and have bought a lot of stuff over the last couple of years.
If you bring over less than $150 and it's stuff like clothes, books or CDs etc, they won't charge you GST & PST. It also depends on the border guard.
I was at the Westcomb pre-Oct sale at their factory (I got on their email list last year)… they have quite a few spectre jackets left, chilko down sweaters etc for around $150.
I waited all year for snowboard pants and got one of the two Mirage pants in small for $150. Sweet!
My Magic Anorak (and some other items) came in the mail tonight and thought I'd give a first impression. I've never used a windshirt, so I can't really do much comparison.
It is TINY in it's built-in stuffsack. (like a 3" long x 1.5" diameter cylinder). Weight is 3.1 oz, advertised is 3.2, so all good there. (size medium, silver)
Putting it on what I notice most is how aggressive the waistline and wrist elastic is. Wrist elastic stretches over the hands and then fits loosely for me, but I have small wrists. Waist elastic definitely still applies pressure once it's in place and feels a little tighter than I'd like, but I don't know whether this is common or not. I also don't know whether this is differently sized on the jacket versus the pullover/anorak.
The material is very thin–it was easy to see my t-shirt through the jacket. I have no idea how it will function in the field, but it's about 1/5 the size of my rain jacket so I will probably try packing it on nice days (so, all the time in SoCal).
Another quick pro: it has a pretty slick little velcro hook and loop for holding the hood rolled down.
Edit: I'm 5'8", 150 lb, 32" waist for sizing info.
