I just finished my commute home in the rain (50F) and my showers pass clothing rocked. I have the elite jacket, rain pants and shoe covers. In my 40 minute ride in a stready rain, my long sleeve jersey was not wet, my legs under my shorts were warm and dry and my feet were fairly wet in the toes by the end. I don't have fenders on my fast commuter so I'm sure that didn't help the shoe covers. Great gear!
