I've had the jacket for roughly 4 months now and over the last few weeks it have been getting pretty regularly outings with the wet/damp days we are having.
This jacket was originally supplied by Go Outdoors on a review and keep basis, and the early reviews can be seen here and here.
The jacket has done the job it is intended for i.e. it keeps me dry when its been raining. And although it hasn't had a great deal of time out on the hills it has had a good workout around town.
The hood problem hasn't been a problem since I fixed it (see second update) using a hair tie, but it would be nice if North Face added some type of hood reducer in future models.
There has been some build up of condensation on my walks to work but nothing that has been that bad, even with a pack on and the rain coming down.
I still think that is jacket is a good mid-price waterproof that works most of the year round.
