how good is the water resistant outer fabric, are we talking drizzle, rain, or heavy rain?

I have never used it in rain. Would be ok in light rain. I would keep a water proof bag handy inside backpack for camera

It's probably good in a light to moderate rain but would get soaked in a heavy rain.

Recentjy, I was in FL during a very heavy rain with driving wind. Nothing inside the backpack got wet.

No, because of the velcro opening, rain can get into the bag. It would not be good under heavy rain, light rain would be ok.

I would say water resistant, had some pretty heavy rains and table underneath hasn't gotten wet

I was only in heavy rain for about a minute but it seems water proof. The fabric didnt absorb the water and there was a lot of droplets on the surface

It def. Is! Ive ridden in very heavy rain and I have not had a single problem. As long as youre not physically dipping it in water, rain water is not an issue. And to top it off, I had a problem with mine a while back due to it not charging and amazon customer service was AMAZING. Product was replaced and sent to me in ONE day. Recommend you purchase!

I would say it is because it's a windbreaker material. I have not been in the rain with it yet.

I haven't used it in the rain but it is of sturdy construction so I would say you should be fine in the rain.

I don't intentionally ride in the rain but I have been caught in it. Since it does have stitching, I would guess it has a little water resistance.

Mine has seen a lot of rain and seems to be holding up fine. It looks like it is powder coated and well made.

Water resistant. It fits well around the waist and it would fit under a long sleeve .. If needed

I use it for playing disc golf in heavy rain. It's a real waterproof rain suit, not a lightweight water resistant type suit.

The exterior fabric is nicely coated nylon, the interior fabric (compartment divider, inside of the pockets) is not. Zippers and seams are not waterproof, but there is a rain flap on the main zip. So a ligth rain should be no problem but a deluge or a submersion will see water penetrate the inside. Same as most quality packs. I keep a couple of disposable shopping bags in the bottom in case I get caught out in a bad rain unexpectedly, and if I'll be boating or expect submersion I use appropriate waterproof containers inside where needed. "Be Prepared".

Honestly I will not use the armband under a heavy storm . But I think that the perspiration or a light drizzle will not be transferred to the cellphone.The material is good for my taste. I use it for run and walk but generally I don't run when there is rain.

I've bought about a dozen of them for my back yard... I live in miami and i just had one good bad 2 weeks ago with not a lot of rain fall for the last couple of months. I would say they seem to be water resistant. But non the less happy with the product.

It is a fabric material. Good enough to prevent abrasions if you landed on the usual places like your hip or knee because of the reinforcement pads. It repells water, but I don't recommend it for constant rain. Got caught in a downpour, and couldn't hide shelter for 30 miles. The pants soaked through.

Very good water resistance. Not water "proof" in long pouring rain but does keep the interior pretty dry. I keep sheepskin seat covers on in winter and have never had them wet from rain.

Water resistant is my assessment. No problem running in the rain with it but I remove it when taking a shower or swimming. No problems so far; it is a good purchase.
