    It is a deeper colour, fits wonderfully, I ran in monsoon rains and stayed dry,

    It is very reflective. I light up like a Christmas tree. Oh, there is a hook on the back. The cool bliky light you gave me ( I cannot find another one anywhere-O desperately want to buy more) I velcro that on and off I go running.

    The price was steep for my budget, but very worth it. This jacket keeps water out and is not steamy from sweat, ect.
    yes ma'am. Bought it today after I found out I couldn't have a Marinoni bike (they don't make one to fit me)

    Mimitabby,

    I hope you enjoy the jacket. I've been riding in the Showers Pass jacket for the past few weeks and I much prefer it over my Gore Jacket. The eVent fabric breathes better and with the pit zips, mid-back venting, and the ability to loosen up the cuffs, I find the ventilation to be excellent.

    I also appreciate the reflectivity.

    Alas, none of those things fit me..... I've even tried on the Burley Rock Point jacket and found it wanting. I guess I'm going to have to get serious about using this here traffic cone orange WPB to make myself something. I'm gonna whine about having to use seam sealant though, the stuff's a pain in the butt....

    Not yet. Our building is a little behind schedule (our windows are late, and without windows, the electrician can't run copper and the drywall guy can't hang drywall, etc...). Sigh. We're currently scheduled to move in the 3rd week of March.

    We will have a "will call" for local customers. You'll be able to place your order online and pick it up the next day.

    Looking forward to meeting you!

    I *want* that Showers Pass jacket and the hood.

    However, I don't *need* it.

    (but I put it in my TE cart, for just in case)
