Has anyone tried out the Rab Kinetic Alpine 2.0 waterproof pants? I haven't had a chance to try them on in a store yet. Rab basically markets them as rain pants, but they're made of a stretchy softshell-like material. I was thinking this could be the perfect mix of softshell and waterproofness that I've been looking for to use with ice climbing.
I have both the jacket and pants. They work quite well. They aren’t quite as breathable as a softshell but they are stretchy, breathable and waterproof. I’ve used them ice and alpine climbing with really good success.
