There is no such thing as 100% breathable and 100% waterproof at the same time, such fabric doesn't exist... Even the most expensive and most technical fabrics which are advertised as waterproof and breathable will loose their breathability when physical exertion reaches a certain point. and overwhelms fabrics breathability..and then you'll end up soaked with sweat inside a so-called waterproof/ breathable fabric.
