I really like this jacket.  My parents had given me one a couple of years ago, and I wore it walking around the campus of my job and managed to stay dry on the rainiest of days. I don't think you'd want to stand outside for a long time in a torrential downpour, but for going from building to building, it's perfect. Even on non-rainy days, it makes a great spring/fall jacket.

Unfortunately, that jacket was stolen, so I ended up getting a second one not too long ago. I'm happy to say that the replacement is just as good as the first one. The only improvement I would make would be to add some zip up vents in the arm pits since this jacket can get pretty warm on hot days.
