Great Jacket, could use pit zips

I have only tried this jacket once last week in the remnants of a Pacific typhoon down by the bay. Horizontal rain, windy and just a generally fairly nasty afternoon. The jacket fits me very well, no sizing problems of any kind. Its very waterproof but at this stage in its life it should be. An excellent well designed hood, I usually wear a hat because of the vision but that was unfeasible on that day so I tried the hood. Just to test how breathable this jacket is I ran some distance and I think it could use pit zips or something to vent the inside. I was wearing merino as a base so the damp does not matter too much but the jury is still out on that. It was a warm day as well. Overall I think it is great, the half price on EVent was brilliant and I have a picture of Chris Townsend wearing this jacket so it cannot be too bad...
