Showers Pass Touring waterproof jacket review

This fully-taped commuter jacket features a spacious cut for fit over street clothes, and a kitchen sink of features. A full-width rear vent lets the sweat out and for big efforts there are huge armpit zips that instantly cool you down.

The back is extremely long thanks to a hidden drop tail so it keeps your bum dry, all the exposed zips are waterproof and plenty of reflective piping keeps you visible.

Showers Pass admit that Aertex isn’t as breathable as more expensive fabrics but the ventilation options compensate. Side and chest pockets are handy, and there’s even a port for your iPod earphones.
