Der erste Regen ging direkt durch.

"Hallo liebes Sherpa-Team, ich habe mir diese jacke im März gekauft und nun vor kurzen zum erstem Mal im Einsatz gehabt. Leider musste ich mit bedauern feststellen, das der erste leichte Regen nicht abgehalten werden konnte. Ich hatte feuchte Schultern. Ich war weniger als 10 min dem Regen ausgesetzt und ich würde behaupten das es ein leichter bis mäßig starker Regen war. Da ich mir diese Jacke fürs Wandern und es Schutz vor Regen gekauft habe, erfüllt sie leider gar nicht ihren Zweck."

Very good raincoat!

"This raincoat feels very soft and is just like a regular jacket. It is well-designed, with good pockets, and the hood can be easily adjusted, making it practical on windy days. The two-way zipper is also very convenient."
