Good for the price. April 2, 2008
The only con is that it doesn't have any pockets, which I knew before I made the purchase. Another color might be useful.
 Crappy Material. November 14, 2007

I would not recommend this product. The material the jacket is made out of is rather flimsy and looks like it could fall apart very easily.

We have taken this rainjacket into the Amazon jungle for a few years now and it's the best type of rainjacket for that climate! It's lightweight so it's not hot and stuffy but waterproof and sturdy enough that it last for years compared to ponchos and plastic jackets. My only suggestion would be to make it in other colors besides yellow!
Super Jacket for Rainy Days or Camping June 3, 2007
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I know anyone would hate a rainy day without waterproof clothes. This jacket is stylish and perfect for those will-it won't-it rain days. Also with is bright color, it's going to be easy to notice and spot the wearer, which is good when you're camping, especially if there are hunters (I hope not) nearby. This is an ideal jacket and I recommend it for all outdoor uses and it'll be reliable so you don't have to worry about buying another anytime soon.
Great Jacket for Occasional Use January 31, 2007

Last year, I spent a week in Maine cycling around in the rain. I got wet and cold, and all my "rain gear" failed me. At the end of the ride, I marched myself into a local bike shop, ready to spend whatever it took to get a waterproof and breathable jacket.
Claims that a jacket is both "waterproof" and "breathable" are usually empty promises when it comes to cycling apparel. Waterproof jackets are not hard to find, but you simply generate too much heat and moisture for the "breathability" of the fabric to keep you from overheating.
Nonetheless, the shop informed me that of all the jackets they sold, this one came the closest to the ideal. I was more than skeptical, but for the price, I thought it worth a try.
I live in Southern California, where it doesn't rain often, so the jacket sat in my drawer for months before it got its first use. I finally had a chance to use it on a 80 mile bike ride with over 10,000 feet of climbing, most of which was in a steady rain.
Here's the bottom line. The jacket IS windproof. It IS waterproof. And it IS breathable. More breathable than any jacket I currently own. And all that without pit-zips, a two way zipper, or adjustable cuffs. I was astounded.
If you're someone who spends a lot of time in the rain, this jacket is not for you. The material looks fragile ... almost like a paper towel with plastic sprayed over one side, so I don't think it would last. But if you're someone who needs a great performing rain jacket for occasional use, I don't think you can do better than the Rain Shield 02.
