Excellent waterproof shell. Lightweight, doesn't cause overheating during physical activity like the shells with inner lining. I wasn't keen on it when looking online because it looked like it was going to be "crinkly plastic" but it isn't. All while handling heavy downpours. Overall much higher quality than alternatives for the same price. anacondastores.com
