Products with Gore-Tex C-Knit Backer Technology offer less weight, better breathability and improved packability compared to previous Gore products. The smooth texture of the knit backing also feels softer, helping the jacket slide on and off over other layers easier.

The Montane Surge Jacket offers the same high level of waterproofing as the Gore-Tex Pro jackets (Endurance Pro + Alpine Pro) but is 15% more breathable thanks to it's Gore-Tex C-Knit fabric. It's still not as breathable as the Gore-Tex Active jackets (Spine) but it does offer a higher waterproofing in comparison, meaning the Surge lies somewhere in-between the two.

So if your after a highly versatile jacket that offers excellent water protection with high levels of breathability, the Surge is the one.
