ohhh! that exactly has happened to me with another product, it was a winter jacket, it is really waterproof.... except for the cuffs....
some times you really wonder what are the designers thinking when they design a waterproof garment, and then thrown in this "fashion" statement thing that ruins everything, because it soaks up water like there's no tomorrow....
