    Dririder jacket really was waterproof

    Today I got my first leak through my Dririder Urban jacket, in heavy rain.
    That's two full years of complete waterproofness, from a jacket in daily commuting and touring use, and it has had a crash and been patched with leather too. The leak is on the inside of the elbow.

    I know other people have had problems but I'll definitely be buying Dririder gear again.
