    The ULTIMATE rain jacket

    Another topic around rain jacket performance is the dwr coating. After you wash a gortex or other membrane jacket the dwr coating can after time start to fail requiring all water proofing to be provided by the membrane. And it fails. So you need to restore the dwr by warm not hot iing or retreating if ironing does not work.

    There is an Aussie brand called Mont who make a good 3/4 length coat using a fabric called hydronaute. I like mine.
