I'm looking for an absolutely rain-proof jacket for the long and wet Oregon winters. I also need one with bomber durability (can take sticks, thorns, rocks, getting crammed repeatedly into a pack, etc) without breaking a sweat. In short, a go-to jacket for anything and everything in the wet. Is this my jacket or should I keep looking?

Adm this is the jacket you've been looking for. The entire face fabric is 70D ripstop nylon that can be dragged across rocks, trees, and probably hot pokers without a problem. It's guaranteed waterproof by Gore-Tex and backed up by a lifetime warranty from OR. The Paclite and Pro shells are both wonderfully breathable. I have nothing bad to say about this jacket. If I didn't already have a shell, I promise you I'd have one in my closet.
