Decent Jacket

In my opinion, this is not a rain jacket, and that should be obvious to anyone. It doesn't have a hood (although they make a version with a hood if you want that) and the lack of hard-shelliness will eventually make it get damp although *you* won't get damp because of the internal laminate. So don't buy this if you're looking for a traditional "rain jacket".
However, this is damn near the perfect spring/fall jacket to wear out around town, quick hike, dog park, and anywhere that it *might* rain and you won't be stuck out in a downpour for 2 days.
