A ski school I work with part time is switching from Karbon to HH for uniforms next year and I need to place an order soon. For jackets we have a choice of three "sequoia" models- a shell, a 60g insulated version, and a version with 100g in the body and 80g in the sleeves. The shell is a 3L HellyTech waterproof/breathable, the others are 2L.
For my personal gear I already have a 3L shell/pant set up, so for these I was thinking of going with the insulated version (it's frequently cold when I'm teaching here in MN). However, the shell is $30 more than the insulated one and $55 more than the 60g one, so I'm wondering if I'm giving up quality to go with the insulated version vs the shell. For pants I was planning on going with the Mule Coach bib (60g), but I can also get the Falcon Full Zip Pant 2.0 (80g). I'm curious if anyone has any comments on those too.
Thanks for any feedback on these items!
