It will let out the initial shower just coz it's really thick.
If you're out in the wet a long time, or just if it's a deluge, it will let water in, and that's the point. If you're working hard your body temperature warms the water and keeps you warm.
Definitely not good if you're on a pootle though as you may not raise your core temp enough to get the wetsuit properties working.
