I live in Oregon and frequently run in the rain. How waterproof is this vest? Will it hold up well to the elements?!

It seems solid in terms of being able to withstand running in bad weather. I haven't tried it in the rain, but it looks like it would be fine.

I purchased this for my wife for Christmas, so it has only been a month, but so far the Tracer360 has held up to the Portland,Or rain. My wife runs outside about 5 times a week, regardless of the weather.

I do not think that the rain would bother it. ... Buy it this item it makes me feel safe out there when running those dark streets. It is so light weight that I forget I have it on.

So far so good. I live right across the river on Vancouver. My wife spends a good amount of time running in the rain as well and have experienced NO issues yet with it. Been very pleased.

This jacket is completely waterproof, even in a downpour, I stayed dry. It did get too warm. The underarm vents are great for that though!

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

Not a definitive answer, but I ride in the rain daily out here in Oregon with no issues.

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!

I don't think mine is water repellant. A good vest, used mine on strip to Alaska and liked it. Lots of pockets

Hi, I checked with my son, whom I bought this for. He has ridden in the rain and had no problems with it. He parks his bike indoors. We live in IL, so it isn't as rainy as in Seattle. I hope this helps.

I have been in heavy rains for entire days. It hasent gotten wet inside and it sheds water real well. As a kayak-er I cant say its waterproof, it only Velcros shut but even Kleenex just stuffed in it stays dry in a thunderstorm. The top overlaps the bottom section creating a nice watershed.

It is definitely not waterproof. I've had it in the rain with no problems. And I believe the manufacturer claims it is water resistant.

It seems to be all waterproof. I ran it to an outdoor extension cord and it's been fine in Portland rain.

I don't know. I don't think my husband ever used it in the rain. Judging the material, I would say that it is probably waterproof. Hope that helps.

As long as you use it within the confines of what it says from the manufacturer, it should be okay. i only ever use mine when i run or am in the gym, it is sealed from sweat. and has been great in pouring rain. have never gone to swim with it though...

It is definitely not waterproof but if exposed to rain, it could handle a short amount of time in it but the outer pockets could get wet. The inner portion could probably resist water for a longer period of time. I have walked a few blocks in light rain and nothing got wet in any pocket.

Not sure if its water proof but it has been tough and done well in the rain.

Yes it is weather proof and yes it will hold up in rainy weather. I used it all summer in Colorado where it was exposed to all sorts of weather with no problems.

I haven't used it with rain, I use it as a sun protection, I'm sorry! But I think it should not be good for heavy rain since it is not plastic. ..
