I love the fabric of this raincoat. The fit is great and the inside pockets a real plus. Unfortunately it hasn't rained here since I made this purchase, but perhaps someday I'll be able to try the coat in the rain. I think it will make a great everyday coat for this area in the fall and winter.
The jacket is great. The UK-based Toray material is a highly respected top-line waterproof system.
The jacket is attractive and functional.
I recommend this jacket over the wool lined version as the wool lining is so THIN as to make it completely useless (a sentiment echoed by other users). Save the extra money and get this coat instead and just layer up.
