Sunrayce Jacket, the lesser



This was my staff rain jacket from Sunrayce 99. Its companion piece was a very nice Columbia rain jacket from '97 (will post in the future). Columbia is expensive and one of the staff members from the sponsors found this less expensive alternative to use for Sunrayce 99.

It featured much of the same functionality. It was water resistance, and could be wadded up into one of the pockets. It had mesh pockets. It had a drawstring hood and waist. But it never was really as nice as the '97 ones.

That being said, it has held up quite well over the years, despite being pressed into near daily usage by me as a rain coat. Some of the mesh has torn, but not too badly.
