1/8 inch plywood can be used if it has a frame or proper support. I think a good urethane varnish is important, this material is not designed for out doors.
Pine is pretty light weight and strong. I think ¾ inch pine vertical pieces would not add much to the weight, would look nicer, handles beer openers, towel bars etc. will mount easier than they do on the framed ⅛ plywood. Also I could use the router to make slots for the shelves saving the trouble of cutting all kinds of ¾ x ¾ little pieces.
Hard woods are heavier than pine and might be a good choice for some.
3/4 plywood is way too heavy
Particle board or MDF is way too heavy and will not hold up when it gets wet.
