So far this jacket has done its job and it’s waterproof/gortex layers has kept me dry when the heaves have opened, I’m yet to test it out in  torrential rain but I’ve been exposed to light prolonged misty rain and I’ve come out dry and the jacket it self once hung up takes moments to dry which is great, My only thing is this jacket won’t keep you warm unless you wear an under layer but this jacket paired up with a fleece underlayer it becomes and impeccable walking/hiking jacket. I got a xs and it fits nice and snug even with a base layer, so the size guide is very true to size. There are only three pockets on the jacket the two at the front and one inside, I was expecting to have an extra 2 at the sides but that’s my fault for not checking, But if your looking to stay dry in style with a robust sturdy jacket then this is something to invest in.
