How good is the "rain proof?" I mean could you wear it on the outside of your clothes in a total downpour if you wanted to?

I washed mine and it didn't work afterwards, but in light rain has been fine.

I have worn mine snorkeling in salt water twice and it is fine. (I didn't mean to do it, but it was clipped to my swimsuit and I forgot it.)

I sent mine through the wash once and it still works great. Fitbit website suggested soaking it in rice for 24 hours, which I did but I think it would have worked with out that.

I was in the rain last night and it performed well. I would add this word of caution; Proceed carefully when in slippery conditions and avoid walking in them when you can.

Yes the material is water-resistant, not waterproof. You can walk in the rain with it, but not diving with it.

It is constructed of a hard plastic - so rain would not be problem except for the non-slip padding on the top. It would probably wear more quickly in the sun/rain, etc.. Unsure about stability in strong wind.

I love love love this rain coat. I have 2 in different colors. I live in Alaska, and it rains constantly. If your wondering if this rain coat will work. It will! It doesn't make you clammy by any means. It does what it's suppose to do. Another good rain coat is outdoor reasearch. Another one of my favorites. I hope this helps a little bit for you. :) have a good day!

It's great but you have to make sure it is tight when you put it on. I got rain water come in through the sides. That's the only downside.

it is lined nylon so it should be ok in a drizzle. My thinking is that it won't do in full on rain for long time. Very light weight, I use it to carry a jacket, hat etc for overseas travel.

Water-proof? No. Water-resistant? Probably. I've had this backpack for approx. 2 months, and have had zero issues commuting to work in the rain without an umbrella. My laptop/notebooks have always stayed dry in light to moderate rain, although I haven't tested it in heavy rain for long distances...and I don't plan on taking the risk, unless absolutely necessary.

Yes. I've ridden in the rain many times without a problem. Was in a downpour today in fact.

It works fine in the rain, It gets wet, but doesnt soak through very fast. I wear it pretty much from mid march to early october, . I run my Marathons in it.. You will wear it all the time once you get it. Just buy it, Nuff said.

I spent 1.5 hours in downpour and hail and stayed dry. It doesn't breathe real well nor is it insulated but it kept me very dry. Also worked as a simple windbreaker

Pretty much so. I used it in in the high Sierra at above 11,000 ' this past spring and encountered a hard rain and wet snow. It did it's job well. It's also a very good windbreaker. At some point, all rain jackets lose some of their repellency. I've only had it about a year so i cannot tell how long it will work without leaking, but my expectation is that it'll work well for a few years yet.

It is water repellant. As far as water proof, I'm not sure about that. I have not had it out in any big rainstorms yet.

The material is a heavy cloth, not exactly sure what. I believe it is not actually waterproof, but it is thick and therefore would be able to repel light rain for sure.

Its good for light rain and no more. I wouldn't take it in heavy rain, or out in the water unless you just want to kill it. I take a little bag with me (inside its storage compartment) to cover it if it starts to rain more than a drizzle.

The material that it's made of is a soft mesh that covers the plastic case. It doesn't appear to be waterproof, but I haven't tested it to be sure. I'm sure it can handle some light rain, but a downpour wouldn't be good.

Yes i have worn this in heavy rain! It keeps you dry! My pants were soaked, and took off my coat and was 100% dry!
