After a lot of use, the green has faded somewhat to produce a softer look, which is a tad less obnoxious and is starting to grow on me. With the amount of use I've gotten out of the rope, I'm super impressed with the Nomad's durability and lack of visible wear. Although it's a little heavier than I'd choose for most long alpine routes, if you are looking for an all-around workhorse of a rope, the Nomad is an excellent choice.
Pros: Durable sheath; soft catches; great dry treatment; middle and ends well-marked; versatile for cragging or alpine climbing.
Cons: A tad heavier than desired for alpine climbing applications; middle marker is stiff at first, but softens over time.
