Microtex is a great material.I have a pair of pants that are uninsulated from Cabela's. I had an uninsulated jacket,I didn't like the cuff's on the jacket,they were elastic and to tight.If I were to get another jacket I would have a seamstress cut the cuff and put a piece of material in there that had it be less restrictive.The pants are light,warm for their weight and dry pretty quickly.
