I had bought my son this jacket for Christmas, but the size ran very big.  So my Husband took the bigger one and I reordered a smaller one for my son. My husband & I went out to eat and he was wearing the jacket, it starting raining. Then within a few seconds as we were walking iin, it started raining harder. I was getting soaked by the time we got in, but he was nice & dry because the rain just rolled right off the jacket.. He liked that.
