Not yet "hours" of rain, but an hour of rain was kept at bay.

I feel very uninformed to have continued pursuing a strictly synthetic answer for a shell layer after wintering with this Hiltrek garment. Further field studies necessary to comment on the placement of the double layers and necessity of doubled arms.
