Im just wondering what the tech is in Sagas rip city pants. like if they're 2L or 3L? or if there was a different rating system when they came out. I tried to look it up but got nothing, Any help?

In regards to 3L SAGA-tek: The fabric is a 100% Nylon Rip-Stop Fabric. The technology is a 3L e-PTFE (expanded PolyTetraFlouroEthelyne) laminate. The fabric is constructed from a surface fabric (rip-stop nylon) laminated to a specific membrane which is then laminated to a lining (brushed tricot). The construction offers extra durability, abrasion resistance, overall strength and performance. All of our Premium Series fabrics are finished with a Dupont Teflon DWR.

I was actually wondering alot about the different levels of fabric you guys use on your coats. Take the OG Logo jacket. What exactly does 'SAGA-tek® Soft-shell 5,000MM, 5,000GSM Fabric' mean? I tried looking it up online but I didnt have very much luck.

This thread is dead, but
Blister does an amazing outerwear layout for those that don't understand the rating systems

Also, s/o to saga for not bullshitting and using technical terms to describe the construction process.
