Default Womens Jettison Rain Suit Review

Hi,
I bought the HD Womens Jettison rain suit before my recent trip to Upstate NY...I looked for review but couldn't find any.
So...I'm posting this for those in the future looking for feedback on the suit.
We were gone 7 days...it rained/downpoured 2 of the days. I stayed completely dry both days...(well...except for my boots and my hands...but that's no fault of the rain suit!) We were stuck in long, slowwww moving line through customs (Canada/US)...my friend got through the line with a huge hole in her pants and a huge melted nylon mess on her pipes. Nothing on my Bob pipes and pants were 100%!
And..the biggest test of all...I actually got it to fit back into the small carrying case (which is actually part of the hood). Of course, it isn't as pretty as original, but it all fits back in there!

Thanks for the review. My wife needs a rain suit if she is going to run with me so I will suggest she check it out.

Notice I said "suggest"?

CinBob - Thanks for the evaluation; great writeup! My wife is getting ready to shop for a rain suit and will definitely be looking at the HD Jettison suit.
