So many handy features as well as being waterproof. Full and 3/4 front zips, and vents are great for heat regulation (and for accessing your vest/pack if you wear it underneath - which you can do because of the pleated back), good size adjustable hood, and thumb loops. The rear pocket is brilliant; a fantastic size. Personally love all the pockets (4 in total) as on shorter runs I don't need a pack as well. I am a road runner though so I'm not taking lots of mandatory kit along for the run. Kept me dry from the rain, though I did sweat a little. The option to unzip but hold the jacket close with the poppers is handy if the weather warms up but it's still wet. Loving it so far!
