Item #COL1573 | 0 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Just in case people didn't know

By Ranked #2712 - Men's Softshell Jackets June 8, 2009

eg. en16752 etc

soft shells are NOT water proof
its just a pertex coating

if your in 20mins of hard down pours in a soft shell then of course your going to get wet

there are plenty of cheaper waterproofs out there
so id return this and get a waterproof
if your mostly goin to be in rainy conditions

Try wearing a Gore Windstopper in steady rain, you'll be soaked too. This is a great jacket, very warm and extremely functional. Way too warm to be wearing in temps that allow rain.
