LL Bean.
They have a very nice, fairly light, 3 ply Goretex piece in their Mountain
Guide line. They also have a coated nylon parka (much lighter).
I have both. My Mountain Guide parka (in a large/tall) weighs 24 oz. The
coated nylon parka weighs 15 oz.
When comparing weights, remember that these are in the large/tall size.
The regular "large" size is a couple of oz. lighter. Most places quote
weights for a standard medium.
