So far so good- I just got the jacket today and have yet to test it out in the rain, but ran my arm under the faucet for about 5 minutes and the water did not pool or go through the fabric at all.
All the seams are sealed and the water beads nicely off of the fabric. Velcro on the arm cuffs and hood work well, and the bottom and hood have elastic that can be cinched for a closer fit.
I have a gore-tech knockoff rain jacket and bought this one because my other rain jacket is heavy and bulky and I got sick of bringing it on backpacking trips and day trips. This packs down fairly small (smaller than my other jacket) and seems like I won't be sacrificing quality.
The color is a nice soft blue and the fit is great (I'm 110 lbs and 5'4" and got the small). I can wear it with just a shirt under and cinch it down and it doesn't look bulky or too big but I can also fit a fleece or a puffy or both under it.
Overall a steal for the price. If things go south when I wear it in the rain I'll update.
