Good value, not clammy

By Tom Le Ranked #29 - Men's Rain Jackets October 19, 2008

Bought this jacket b/c my REI rain coat wasn't breathable enough during warmer seasons. The interior material doesn't leave you feeling clammy like other laminates. Feels smooth to the skin. Stretch material on the under side of sleeves and on the shoulders work great when you have backpack strapped on tight and need a bit of a give in the material when reaching for objects. Definitely more breathable then my previous none Gore jackets. But lightweight enough for summer rain. Large pit zips help cool down quickly. I'm size 48-50 shoulders and 38 waist. I opted for XXL, fits great. Only down side is that after 4 short amount of use, water stopped beading, but still kept me dry. Not a huge deal since I can simply recoat the jacket. If you have the money and want breathable waterproof material, go for the ones that uses eVent fabric. If you are looking for something more affordable, this is a good consideration.
