Is this jacket too warm for humid rainy summer days?

not sure about all these other answers, I've found it pretty useless even in not-so-warm days -- it's like being in a plastic bag, and I get condensation on the inside even with the armpit openings all the way open and in a light walk (not sweating). Pretty awful. It might be good in cold weather but it's too light weight for the cold. Not sure why they call it 'dry touch' either, and it certainly isn't 'breathable'.

It does get a little stuffy in weather like that, but as a single layer over a t shirt its fine. And unzipping the arm vents helps too.

i bought this jacket to endure the humid rainy season here in the Philippines. Lightwt material and pit zips make it perfect for my situation. Not too warm.

My husband is always cold, so for him no, but I am always to warm, so for me, I wouldn't want to wear it if the temp is 90 degrees out and humid, but otherwise it is a truly nice jacket, well made.

Not at all, it's actually great for days like that....enough protection so you don't get wet but not too thin so the humidity feels like its sticking to you. I've been very happy with it for just that purpose. For reference, I live in a humid midwest type climate so we get plenty of those hot humid days.

No, it's quite lightweight. I don't think you will find anything lighter. It could get a bit humid, but not anymore than other rain jackets.

I don't know, we live in Oklahoma where it is very hot and humid in the summer and my husband prefers his when out working a lot. He had owned one previously and lost it and really wanted another. I got two, and he once again is wearing his all the time.

I am using the pack in Arizona, so I have not used it in the rain. It appears to be water repellent and the zippers are protected with an overlay of fabric.

I live in Portland and ride often in the rain. I have not experienced any moisture related issues

It could be a little warmer, other than that, keeps me really dry from the rain.

I haven't used it in tropical weather but I have in snow and light rain. As long as there isn't any holes it will keep you dry. It doesn't zip closed around your head. Instead it overlaps and has velcro. There is a chance for a few bugs getting in but not many.

My husband says that it holds the heat in the rain in fall and spring. He has never worn it in the winter. I have a Marmot as well and agree wholeheartedly. Our daughter also wears one and agrees with us. It is much warmer than any other rain jacket we have worn.

Sorry I'm not sure I returned it before testing it out outside in the elements. It's a beautiful jacket though!

I've used it in light rains, and it's been perfectly fine. But, I've never used it in heavy rain.I imagine it would be fine, as long as the top is under your sleeve, and you aren't getting entirely drenched for a long time

No, is not water resistant, but is very confortable for its pockets and Size.

This coat breathes better than any other lightweight WATERPROOF rain jacket I've owned. It does not breathe as well as a an autumn jacket, which may have a rain repellant finish. I would opt for a well made autumn jacket.

I suspect it is. I have used it often in very rainy conditions, and it performs well. Roger J.

It's not listed as waterproof but I would wear it in the rain, just makes sure the vents are closed.

I find this jacket is best when it is 25-40 degrees out. It blocks the wind nicely and if you pair it with a warm scarf/hat/gloves, you could probably get away with wearing it when it's under 20 degrees.

My son says they are perfect for hot and humid weather. He is in the middle east.
