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....
Yeah, LOL.
I imagine a Dilbert-eque moment:
Dilbert: Yes, after 2 years of testing and redesign, we've finally perfect the rain jacket! Totally waterproof, beat by no one in breathability, we've got zippers and vents for venting - we're finally done!
Boss: We'll just add those stretchy cuffs I've always liked and ship it!
Dilbert: But those won't be waterproof!
Boss: Aaaah, as long as it's mostly waterproof that's good enough! We're shipping it!
