I've had this jacket for about a year and a half. I wear it as a light rain jacket and windbreaker when hanging out and also when running, hiking and biking. It's kept my dry and there isn't a single leak. It's sturdy too. No rips or tears even though it's had some rough treatment.

The armpit vents are great when I go running in the rain. The jacket helps keep me dry and cool. It's not breathable so sweat can build up on the inside but when it stops raining it's easy to store in the included stuff sack. Even with all the perspiring I've done in this jacket it hasn't developed any foul smells.

The hood on this is huge! It's kind of nice that I can put it over my bike helmet but I don't have a need for that very often. Most of the time the hood winds up obstructing my view. I'm going to try the velcro as another reviewer did to fix the jacket.

Overall I'm still extremely pleased with how well this performed.

Update: I just noticed they updated the design of the hood. Not sure if my comments still apply to it. The new design has a hood that stores in the collar but that's not what's pictured.
