    I have both and recommend both but I use them for different situations.

    The halo is a great light weight pacakble jacket that i use in warmer months or when I know it's going to be dryish. Basically it stays in the pack and gets taken on and off only when needed but will still work if the weather turns nasty.

    The odyssey I use for colder wet trips when I know I'm going to be wearing it all the time. The extra thickness helps with warmth, its longer to keep your shorts dry and tackle warm. Great pockets to keep you bits and peices close to hand.

    If your starting out get the halo and spend the rest on a good merino base layer and mid layer. The 3 combined will get through most situations.
    Low box, Scouser and stagstalker like this.
