This jacket keeps me dry in hard downpours, and the wicking keeps me from getting wet from sweat. The pockets are handy - I especially like the inside breast pocket, for keeping my wallet dry.
I have 2 of these...worn each 3-4 times...still waterproof, but have not washed either yet. I am wondering if loss of waterproofing is due to detergent residue...try putting jackets through a wash/rinse cycle with NO detergent. My London Fog trench coat (20+ years old) is no longer waterproof presumably because in early years I did not put it through 3 rinse cycles per label directions! I recently washed and then rinsed it 3 times, but waterproofing was not restored :-( Maybe it is not too late for your jackets...maybe.
I purchased this jacket for use while running. I needed something to keep me dry during light and heavy rain. I was not looking for insulation as I already have other layers for that. I found this jacket does the job and does it well. I have worn it in very heavy rain storms and in light rain and it does keep me dry. I only have one complaint about it and that is how the hood rolls up. It's not very easy to figure out (I had to call customer service for instructions) and it is bulky and does not look great when rolled up. I love the color and functionality and it will be my go-to rain jacket for at least 3 seasons here in Pennsylvania.

Nice looking waterproof jacket, quite handsome and useful for more than just in the rain, great windbreaker. May run a bit small, I bought an XL for my son who normally wears a L. He didn't want a rain jacket but once he wore this one he decided he would keep it and get a lot of use out of it. Lightweight but strong and Keeps you dry and protected!
