Does any one have one of these, and If so how is it, is it pretty breathable, even for Spring/Summer Rain

I just recently moved to the North West, and I am not uses to this on/off rain


Or other Ideas of light breathable rain gear

I have the Showers Pass Elite 2.0, and it is fantastic! I'm sure the Touring is nice as well. I also use mine for motorcycle rides, and everyone asks me about it. Still going strong and looking good after 2 years.

What, you or the jacket?!!

I just got the Touring jacket, and it's really awesome. The pit zips are quite long, it's got a double front zip so you can open it up around the waist, big scoop cuffs to allow airflow up the sleeves, and a huge back vent. It needs the ventilation since it's a heavier fabric than the Double Century or the Elite jackets. (It's a touring jacket, so it's built heavy duty.)
It's really comfortable, not heavy feeling, and can work 4 seasons up here with a good wool baselayer and jersey underneath.

PNW knows rain, and Showers Pass knows the PNW. I have no idea why people buy rain gear from companies in Colorado...

I have had the Touring for a couple of years now. It's great in the wet and the pit zips make it useful in a wide range of temperatures. I like the add-on hood. It seems as breathable as anything that will keep the water off (better than the Gore-Tex that I have owned). Even so I don't use it much when it gets "hot" (above 70 F), except sometimes in heavy rain. On the other hand I wore it through the winter (with appropriate layers) and it worked really well as an outer breathable windproof shell. Not bad. Sub-zero (though not by much) to 70 or so. Windproof and waterproof.
I like it.

I have the Touring. I bought it for multipurpose rain/cold shell for touring and commuting.

I've used it for a dry-weather shell down to 40F with just a merino base under it and colder with additional layers.

Above 55-60F, I tend to sweat more than it can vent so I get damp inside, but it's not so cold that I'm uncomfortable. The pit zips make it usable, without them, it'd be a sauna suit for me.

It was heavier than I anticipated from all the reviews I read, but it's not terribly heavy and it's been durable for the year I've had it. I'll be taking it to the CA/OR border area next month, so I'll have a better idea how it does up there, but by then, I guess your decision will have been made.
