  1. Random aside, does anyone know if UK army surplus waterproof trousers/overtrousers typically advertised as "goretex" are actually Gore Tex(tm) lined?

      Fair enough.  I ask because my surplus boots do actually have a GoreTex label, and I'm coming round to the  ritual belief that "Gore Tex" and "waterproof" are synonymous, and if it don't have the label, it don't have the magic.

       

      That said, I'm far too cheap to drop hundreds on actual branded gear, so will take a punt on the "MVP" sweat-pants anyway. ;)

      Surplus US ECWCS stuff is legit GoreTexTM but it's a bit pricier than the Brit gear and more likely to be used. Modeern Brit gear moved away from Gore products (for cost reasons I dare say) but the MVP stuff is just as good.

      It's fine for motorcycle use so should be fine for airsoft, whatever the actual material.  

       

      Dutch Seetex is amazing.  My jacket has been totally waterproof for 20+ years, although the camo pattern is now extremely faded.  The elbow pads even survived a low speed tumble.
