    I really got a chance to test the new breathable under quilt protector over the last 3 day.
    Took a pulk trip up to Kenosha Pass Colorado (10,400 ft above sealevel) for 3 day and 2 nights had 1 1/2 days of sustained winds of 15mph with gusts to 45mph.
    The UQP performed flawlessly.

    Nice addition to the 2QZQ product line. Definitely like breathable outer layers.

    UQ Protectors

    Two questions:
    What is the weight of each protector?
    Is the "breathable" protector also water resistant?
    Thanks

    And wind proof or at least highly wind resistant?

    Just updated the website. The weight is 7ozs. and because it is a calendared material, is somewhat wind and water resistant.

    The website says there is a waterproof syl version of it, and a breathable ripstop version.

    Yes, I think that is a fair statement. Tightly woven ripstop and calendaring of the material makes that possible. OutandBack has been testing it for us and can speak to the resistant properties.

    would the 'calendaring' make the dwr obsolete? meaning, would the water repellentness of this fabric last provided the nylon isn't damaged?
