I have one too, a Tupilak. Brilliant fit isn't it? I've climbed a lot in mine and the comfort and performance is outstanding.
Goretex Pro is meant to be tougher and more waterproof than the Neoshell jacket, but less breathable. It certainly is the latter, as to whether it is tougher depends more on the outer layer to which the membrane is bonded. I've already scuffed and put a tiny hole in the chest pocket of my Tupilak where the fabric got caught between a phone and a rock as I thrutched my way upwards so it ain't as tough as ME make out, though I'm determined to rock the gnarly look!! Plenty of reports on here of Neoshell jackets being even more flimsy and fragile however.
Seems to me the right implementation of Neoshell would be as backer to a scuff resistant softshell, like the Marmot Nabu, but with ME's new cut. As far as I can tell, no such garment exists. Come on manufacturers, are you reading this?
