This jacket has been great!
During the rainy season in Thailand, just the shell was a lot better and more comfortable than the plastic bags most people wear. Handled the downpour great. You still sweat in it since the humidity is 99.9% and the temp was 90F+. But wearing a bag, you are soaked in about 20 minutes. Wearing this jacket just makes you feel damp.
Coming back to the US, Pacific Northwest and Midwest. The Red Point synthetic and Nuptse jackets zip in to handle any cold temperature.
Light and tough. Easy to clean. I think of it more as a foul weather system. Just bring the proper liner for the temperature, weight and space requirements.
