Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

I got proper drenched today and my Rapha softshell let it through too quickly, so going give the Nikwax a go, noticed they do them for cotton, worth applying to my shorts?

Although the rainlegs thingies look good

This happened to me too. The rain seemed to go straight through which I don't remember it doing the last time I wore it in the rain. And once it's soaked it takes ages to dry.
