The coduit outer shell is very waterproof although I wouldn't put it in the category of goretex. I have several pieces of gear with conduit and it works pretty well. If you're looking for something extremely waterproof I'd actually check out the backcountry.com Stoic jacket. It's an absolute piece of art! Great jacket.-------------------------------------------The Dado Jacket is completely waterproof. It is made with our Conduit laminate and then taped on the inside. On top of that, it is also insulated with Primaloft. The Stoic Jacket is made with Event and not GoreTex and is a shell. Also, Event will not be as waterproof as Gore, nor as durable, but will provide slightly more breathablility when tested in a lab. When used outside in the real world all of these different fabrics and jackets will perform to your liking. Cheers!
