Can I use FurTech in a bucket seat belay?

Bucket_seat Sitting in wet snow will not cause wetness inside FurTech trousers or jackets. However, sitting or kneeling in boggy ground or slush will force water through the fabrics. This isn't usually a problem and the fabrics dry rapidly. (Interestingly, a study on using Pertex for snowboarding showed no water ingress on that fabric either.)
