A few reviewers have noted poor breathability. I am looking for a hot weather rain jacket. Anyone with experience in warm environments? Thank you!

You can not all ways get what you wait, keeping dry or breathability it just does not work together. They mite say so but that is life.This is a very light jacket that will keep you dry there are side zipper to open up as well.

We live in Baltimore and it get's pretty steamy here, I have never noticed the fabric of this carseat being any warmer than usual. As for breathable, she's not a sweaty mess when we take her out. I never really thought about it. I think it's fine

@HellCat, I'm not sure how comfortable you would be on a 300 plus mile ride because these are extremely form-fitting and fairly tight. I have one in black and it works great when I'm in the water but for hiking or other outdoor activities I would get a lighter color and possible size up so you have more "breathing" room. The sun protection is great, I'm very fair and haven't had a problem in that area. It's great for camping, swimming, diving, keeping bugs at bay but mine does retain some heat. These also dry fairly quick and are easy to clean. Hope this helps, have fun on your ride.

Hmm, I haven't had a problem with getting too hot while wearing it but it's also been on the colder side where I live. But I have worn it inside my house which we usually keep about 70-72degrees and I didn't get hot. Hope that helped

Yes, I've been in the rain with it many times and have had no issues. I have also been in 98+ degree heat with a heat index of 108 sweating profusely without adverse effects.

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!

This coat breathes better than any other lightweight WATERPROOF rain jacket I've owned. It does not breathe as well as a an autumn jacket, which may have a rain repellant finish. I would opt for a well made autumn jacket.

I'd say the coat is perfect for those temps. It will keep you warm without being too hot. I'd use a good, breathable under layer too.

Hmm, I know it has kept me plenty dry, warm, and not sweaty and I have given it plenty of action, including violent swims. The neck gasket does leak a tiny bit, which happened a couple of weeks ago at Kilchis River on the SHORE when I got wave after wave of heavy rain dumped on me for a good half hour. Get one of those LL Bean fleece fishing jumpsuits for $50-60 to wear under it, and a sweatshirt to wear between it and the drysuit if it's cold outside, and you will be fine.

Dorothy, I saw your post while Christmas shopping and was wondering if you had any luck finding a weather system. My husband would love one but I got so lost in the search last Christmas I just put off buying one. Can you tell me what's worked best for you? Thanks, Rhonda

I think the pant not suitable for a very hot climate (hot and humid) place.It's medium thickness,not very light weight,but good bresthable.

I don't know about hot weather. I bought it for cold and it works out well. it does seem to be breathable if that helps.

I don't know, we live in Oklahoma where it is very hot and humid in the summer and my husband prefers his when out working a lot. He had owned one previously and lost it and really wanted another. I got two, and he once again is wearing his all the time.

I only used it in semi warm weather, but not really. I mean I'm sure it's better than a cotton type fabric but I was sweating pretty good. I was In the sun so perhaps the black color is why.

I was wondering the same thing. I live in the jungle, where normal inside temp is around 85-90. Would that be considered a "cool, dry place"?

Yeah it would be way to hot I sweat to death in about 60 degree weather running around with it on, get under armour heat gear base layer or nike pro combat

Personally would not recommend this one. This one runs small, is stiff, wouldn't breathe as you pointed out. I would suggest the women's style straw hat, it can be scrunched into a ball and come out great, it is very durable and it is unisex (looks good on a man or a woman), and it is breathable. Probably a better choice in the humidity.
