Thanks James and sorry I should have said water resistant, rather than waterproof. I haven't worn this one in heavy rain, but in my experience, soft shell stands up ok to a fairly heavy shower, but not to heavy rain for an extended period of time. It will start to let in water if it pools anywhere for a length of time (e.g. between a bag and jacket). It is very breathable, much more so than a true waterproof jacket.
