C Change membrane

[younger06]

Has anybody experience of jackets/trousers using this schoeler fabric either in Halvarssons, BMW or Richa gear, what's it like, does it do what it says on the tin????

Mine works in both halvarssons and BMW, halvarssons appears to be better quality than the bmw with a far better liner imho

Is it the Odyssey jacket that you have, how does it cope without ventilation ??

Mines a Panzar Jacket uses Drywall Plus Membrane with Outlast and Outlast Liner for temperature regulation the same as the odyssey, been wearing the liner upto about 21 deg and regulates fine, liner out after that and is good upto low 30's. But my jacket does have vents as well when required.

My streetguard trousers are pure c change and they seem pretty good in all temps.

Did have Halvarrson trousers which were far better quality but got too big

The Odyssey is also c_change, I was just wondering was the c_change as breathable as hi spec Gore Tex.

From my experience it's better, I remember the days of sweaty gortex liners, c change and the other types of this type of material are the next generation of gortex more expensive but far far better

That's settled Halvarssons Odyssey ordered and on its way to me.

Halvarssons Panzar jacket and Prince trousers for me, brilliant, well vented, waterproof and very comfy.

I got the Odyssey jacket heavily discounted because it's discontinued and a lightly used set of Mercury trousers off one of our fellow tossers. Fully kitted out top and bottom with the c_change membrane for about €600 (half price)

Got my Odyssey jacket today to match up with my Mercury trousers and I can confirm that the c_change membrane is definitely waterproof. I went out for 2 hours in an orange weather alert for wind/rain to test the kit.............bone dry.
I did notice that the textile that Halvarssons use for this suit seems to be very stiff, I really hope that it softens up a bit.
