Would you recommend this jacket as something you could fold very small and add do an emergency bag?
No, I think if you want a jacket to just sit in a bug out bag you could find a cheap poncho or something
This is more for being active outdoors in rain or maybe some wind.
But if you really folded it I bet you could get it to be about the size of a banana bread loaf
Are the pants as comfortable as softshell pants and are they 4 way stretch and abrasion resistant for climbing and scrambling?
Yeah they’re stretchy and I believe they’re abrasion resistant
@YetiYeff that's great. Any weaknesses and how are they holding up? Do you wear them directly over skin like normally hiking pants?
I got them Spring 2023 and it rained a bunch that year so I would wear them as I ran, so I would wear shorts under them and unzip the legs a bit to let them breath But you could wear pants under them if you wanted some warmth. I’ve done that a few times.
They’re holding up great, they’re like new. But this year it hardly rained so I haven’t used them in a long time. I use the jacket all the time though it’s a perfect jacket for in the summer to throw into your bag so that you can have it just in case you need it if it gets windy or rain or whatever.
Mrs. Yeti doesn't have to go shopping for rain jackets because she can just steal her husband's.
If it’s anything like when she borrows the truck I have a feeling it’ll come back full of cheddar bunnies 😂
Those are just sustenance in case a moose attacks and you have to summon help with your Garmin, but the "help" is an independent contractor delivery driver.
@@lisah9192 do they “help” by dropping you off their car roof??
@@YetiYeff I see you've gotten assistance from them before!
@@lisah9192 yeah I did. But they were 2 months late.
Can you also wear the pants confortable on your bare skin or is it made as a "overlay" while you have on your normal pants?
I wear shorts under the pants when I run in the rain and it’s totally fine
This is the greatest jacket review ever!!!
Hahaha. Thanks buddy. I appreciate you
Such great info! Can’t wait to get mine
When’s that happening
I have the same jacket. Is there any chance that the black diamond highline jacket have a replica? Mine is made in vietnam. Is that Legit sir? Cuz they're no difference with your jacket. Just wanna know where your BD jacket was made. Godbless 🙏
It was made in Vietnam
@@YetiYeff thanks sir! God bless
It’s a hardshell . Softshell are insulating jackets , rainjackets are hardshells FYI ;)
🎉 thanks for lookin out.
Ain’t got time to treat a waterproof jacket. Black diamond is where it’s at. Cool!
Right!? I’ve got nature to conquer, not jackets to wash. Who am I!? Martha Stewart!? 😂
I'm disappointed this gear doesn't come with a paddle holder 😂
Paddle holder sold separately 😂
I have this jacket and really like it as well. Great hardshell during winter hikes, and some summer ones as well. My other is a Fjallraven Keb Eco Shell, but sometimes that is too heavy. You get all the same performance in a much lighter, and more packable form with the Highline. Not having to reapply DWR is a godsend too. Also own a Stormline Stretch from BD, but that relegated to rainy walks in town because the Highline is so much better. Got it for a song with a timely BD coupon. $190!
Ah that’s rad!!
@@YetiYeff Highline pants looked nice, but I went with the Stormline pants because they are available in full zip legs. I use them as a hardshell in winter, on the off chance the snow is a little wet. So much more convenient not having to remove your gaiters, snowshoes, crampons, microspikes, winter boots etc and just slap on the rain pants over whatever you have on already. Really surprised the Highline pants don't have a full zip version.
@@GetUpTheMountains so far I really like the pants. I’ve only really used them to run in the rain
Nice Jacket man
Hey thanks buddy! Does it rain in Texas or nah??
@@YetiYeff yes where I am
@@LateNitewithCap does it flood?
Looks fantastic! Great info!
Did you enjoy my bucket full of knowledge!?
It looks awesome!!!
How’d you like the review!?!
@@YetiYeff I'd totally get one from your review!
@@YetiYeff Especially the moist part hahahahaha
@@manosphere101satire 😂. Let me guess. You instantly turned it off when you heard the word “moist” didn’t you!?!?
@@YetiYeff 😅😅😅 not at all... And I guess that was our Yetti Quote of The Day! lmao
It's the pose
The super hero pose??
