The best street coat ever!
I regretted not getting the All-Time shell when it first came out many years ago. However, the wait for the new one has been worth it! This shell is very light and is stretchy. I received it just in time for a three day downpour and I stayed very dry while wearing it to an from work. It is extremely comfortable and has invited many positive comment from co-workers. Get yours while you can!

Thee Rain Coat- All Time Shell
My son bought a gray one for a semester abroad in London. I was able to try it out when he returned. Loved it so much I bought one for me in black. As others have mentioned, can where to work over a sport coat or for casual. My wife also washed the gray one after a London and it looked like new. Great product from Patagonia. Great price at Altrec also.

Patagonia: Men's All-Time Shell
Great looking rain jacket nice enough to wear for work. It is nice and long and looks good wet or dry. The fit seems true to size.

The Coat
A perfect coat for wearing to and from the office and around town. It fits over a sport coat! I has all of the great alpine technology of Patagonia hard shells, but is designed for in town use (though it could be used on the trail, also). It packs small, smaller than an alpine parka. Highly recommended

Quality coverage for dressy events
The jacket is made of a high quality, light-weight material. It's compact and long enough to cover a dressy jacket. I have yet to wear it this summer because it's been exceptionally hot and dry in NH so I only gave it a 4 right now.
