Other than the noise factor, this is a nicely made jacket that WILL repel rain and keep you comfy. It fits nicely, looks good, can fold up and go with you wherever and whenever. The hood is generously sized. I look forward to taking this with me to outdoor events!

The lining however, is strange-- it looks perforated but I don't think it is. So I wonder how hot this will get in the summer --

The price is another factor-- Why so high?
