Was able to wear the smock for a extended hike over my full kit. It was windy and a constant light drizzle. The smock was the extra protection needed to stay comfortable. Had stuff in front and REAR pockets with no issues. It was protection without the bulk of a full goretex shell.....Its a 4 in my book only because of the no welded seems. Only meaning u might get a little wet in a driving rain storm. The smock weighs next to nothing and packs very easy.
