This was exactly what I was looking for...a raincoat that I can wear year round. It's very lightweight so it's perfect for traveling. If you're looking for warmth, this is not for you. Be sure to wear layers underneath when it's cold. It's great for walking your dog or commuting to work.
The Bean Team has done it again! Wind & waterproof enough for the elements, this hooded coat is long enough for real protection, but light enough to be worn over "whatever". The up-or-down zipper and a judicious snap at the bottom facilitates sliding into cars or climbing fences. Four conveniently located zipper pockets drily carry what you need, & the adjustable hood keeps your eyes alert.
