Does anyone have one of these at all please?

Its clearly windproof, but I'm just wondering if its water resistant also? I don't want a full on waterproof due to the normal breathability issues, so am keen on a windproof that will keep out light rain. Just wondering if this Polaris jacket fits that category?

Cheers

Dunno but there's a load of polaris stuff on sports pursuit might be worth a quick look to see if its cheaper

Polaris stuff is heavily discounted a few places

Don't know if I even know what "water resistant" entails but I can't see any modern windproof jacket not being half decent in a light rain shower if worn as an outer layer.

I have had one for around 6 months, in light rain it's been absolutely fine and water beads off it pretty well but if you are out for a while then like all of these jackets, you will feel it. It's pretty good jacket, £45 on SportsPursuit at the moment (mid-feb delivery) and it makes a good Spring/Autumn jacket.
