Does anyone have any experience of Showers Pass rain jackets? Specifically the Ecolyte or Elements.

I'm looking for the usual unicorn jacket of something lightish and packable, as well as waterproof and breathable.

i had a showers pass century jacket a few years ago.
IIRC it was ok, but no better than most other good quality jackets.
it packed small, didnt weigh much, kept rain off, and got wet inside once i got warm.
all waterproof jackets i have owned do this.

Yes, 20% off which is what prompted me to look at them.

I have an IMBA jacket, can’t say I found it particularly waterproof or breathable compared to anything else that claims similar properties.

I think mine is the refuge jacket and I love it. Very good quality. The zip broke after 23 months and I was sent a replacement; excellent customer service.
My previous one was Alpkit, but it tore quite easily, and they didn't reply to my enquiry to repair it.
