 Columbia Sportswear Men's Ibex Rain Parka By: Columbia Sportswear Average Rating: 3.0 Total Reviews: 5 More Information Breathable?  On: 2008-05-25This rain jacket is not breathable. They say it is because they have two small holes under something on the front of the jacket. Right where my backpack shoulder straps go. I think you would stay drier without the jacket in the rain. I put it on and I was drenched inside. This is a jacket you throw on if your running to the store. Absolutely not for any serious outdoor activity like hiking. Fabulous  by: Anonymous On: 2006-08-16 This is an amazing product! This was found on sale, but is DEFINITELY worth the full price. Shipped quick and easy! Great Protection from wind and Rain but limited breathability  by: Anonymous On: 2006-08-15 This rainsuit is ideal to keep you dry even in the worst downpur plus keep you warmn in the middle of any chilly windstorm. It will make you hot because of its lack of breathability so dont consider it for trekking plus its not easily packable. Raincoats really waterproof by: ahuvaftruxton On: 2006-07-16 Bought these raincoats for my 3 teenage sons. The sizing is really ample. (The large is really large.) They have been out in downpours and the parkers really are waterproof. They arent full length, but that is clear in the description. My only concern is that they dont wrip too easily as they are not heavy (which makes them great for the spring/summer showers). So far, we have no problems with wripping. like a plastic bag  by: seamusoriley On: 2005-10-21 it works. period. but it is like wearing a plastic bag...no breathing at all. You get very sweaty when it is closed up.....it is only good for heavy rain protection, but nothing else. Better to spend a few more dollars and get a material that is both waterproof and breathes. |
