Here's what other sites are saying:

From Campmor:
"The Patagonia Rain Shadow Jacket is an essential 100% waterproof/breathable 2.5-layer hard shell for hiking and trekking. H2No waterproof/breathable 2.5-layer, tear-resistant 100% nylon shell fabric. Deluge DWR finish. Interior surface texture channels moisture away from skin, protects the waterproof barrier from abrasion and slides easily over layers. Roll-down, 2-way-adjustable hood. Center front zipper with storm flap. Reverse-coil, DWR-coated pit zips with storm flap. Two handwarmer pockets with PU-coated zippers. Self-fabric cuff tabs. Drawcord hem. Avg. wt. 13.5 oz."

From Backcountry.com:
"When you're out on the mountain and get stuck in unexpected, wet weather, pull on the Patagonia Men's Rain Shadow Jacket. Patagonia gave this nylon jacket an H2No barrier and coated it with a Deluge DWR finish and sealed every seam to ensure not a drop of water makes its way to your underlayers. The interior surface texture channels moisture away from your skin when you sweat, and it protects the waterproof barrier from abrasion when you're on the move. Open the underarm zips to dump excess heat and pull up the helmet compatible storm hood when it really starts to come down. Zippered pockets prevent your essentials from getting soaked, and the compressible and lightweight design allows you to stow this jacket in your pack with ease."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Patagonia Rain Shadow Jacket is made from a packable and lightweight, H2No® 2.5-layer tear-resistant nylon fabric, with a Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish and a raised internal diffusion pattern that channels moisture away from skin and aids in hassle-free layering. Features include water-resistant zippers; one internal and two external pockets; pit zips; a drawcord hem; partially elasticized self-fabric cuff tabs; a helmet-compatible, roll-down 2-way-adjustable hood.

"If used for the intended purpose, this is a very fine rain/foul weather jacket if properly maintained. In my mind, this jacket is a lightweight windproof, waterproof, and reasonably breathable shell with some features that make it appropriate for three-season hiking and sports, and moderate winter conditions."

rated 3.5 of 5 stars Men's Rain Shadow Jacket
Reviewed by Jon.C, Jun 29, 2008

"Fit is relaxed, not athletic like Patagonia's climbing stuff, so it will layer well over almost anything but tends to feel baggy and is not long enough in the hem.
Nice light weight but this doesn't help when you want to use the stiff waterproof zips and end up using two hands to open a pocket or the pits."
