★★☆☆☆
No durability to this product at all.
I bought this rainsuit in Seattle. At first it worked well, but by the time I got to Nebraska it was leaking all around the chest, shoulders and arms.
It turns out that the yellow portion of the suit is composed of two layers bonded together. And as the arms back and shoulder fabric flaps in the wind, it tears the inner layer. And the suit leaks in those areas with the tears. You can see this in the photo I'm including with this review.
It's a shame, given the attention to detail given to the construction of this suit. So many seams, all taped. The front zipper has two layers of protection to keep it waterproof. All for only fifty bucks.
Since the price is so good, you probably want to ignore this review, and purchase this anyway. Well if you're not going to wear it for 350 miles travel in a day, then put it in you're pack, and don't ride when rain is predicted. So you'll only wear it a couple of times in a season and it will last for several years. Also the tears only happened on the yellow portion of the suit, maybe an all black, or mostly black suit would be better. But if you're on a tour, where you're going to ride rain or shine, then stay away.
