This is a 2-layer GoreTex jacket. Not only do we guarantee that it is water proof but W.L. Gore and Associates does too! And the seams ARE taped on the inside. Not sure how you have decided they are not taped? Anyway, waterproof GoreTex jacket... guaranteed. -------------------------------- Ahhh I see... it says in the 'Tech Specs'. Well, the Tech Specs are wrong. Sorry for the confusion. I will remedy the Tech Specs soon! Thanks.

That is the case, but I guarantee you it will not be an issue. MH knows what they're doing, so if they say it's waterproof, you can bet it is.
