nice for rain but really odd heat retention issue This past spring I traveled to Scotland & Ireland and since I didn’t have a lightweight rainproof jacket I picked up this item. Of course I just happened to spend 10 days in Scotland & Ireland in May and only experienced one afternoon of light rain so I can only say that it kept me dry during that short spell of rain.
Great jacket for a big man I bought this for my husband. He wears big and tall and sometimes it can be challenging to find things long enough (the tall part) in his size. This is a light weight typical rain jacket. For a tall, it is a little shorter than he would have liked, but not too short to wear. The color and material are nice. The sizing (other than the tall being a little shorter than we would have liked) is in line with what he wears at the major department stores. He has not had a lot of chances to wear…
Doesn’t breath! I got sweaty underneath this, but it did keep the rain off. However, which is worse, sweat or rain? You decide!
