I will say its usually used by companies that do make good jackets so workmanship, fit, etc is usually top notch. Its just unfortunate it doesnt work well for cycling in the rain
It worked very well for a rainy summer ride I had this year. Good design and ventilation is key. I just opened the pocket zips and let the mesh liner evacuate the moisture.

Even my older 3 layers work well because they have good designs like full lengh pit zips, and mesh lined pockects. Sure in a full aerobic situation I use something else more cycling specific, but these work well in a pinch.
