Version reviewed: Paclite II 2001
An awesome lightweight suit. It weighs less than a lot of jackets. The medium pant medium top 1-piece suit weighs 39.4 oz's. 2 thigh and 2 external chest pockets. The internal suspenders have spandex mesh pockets in them. The suit has waterproof zippers throughout and is very comfortable to wear.
The only downside is that the Gore Paclite II really grabs at underlayers and makes getting it on and off a chore sometimes in that you have to readjust layers that have ridden up. Overall it's my favorite piece of gear.
