My dad bought their tour series jacket last year and it takes on water in the strangest way. Looks more like it's being hit by acid rain.

Anyone have this jacket and experience the same thing?

That looks just strange dude. Does it go away when it dries??
 
Yeah he just showed me the jacket this morning and it's unscathed haha!
I've never seen anything like that lol. It almost looks like the rain is putting dimples in the jacket or something.
 
Just a thought - have you tried this with tap water? Warm/Cold?
 
That looks really weird.
 
that's crazy. Never seen anything like that before.
 
Looks like the rain is penetrating the DWR and sitting on the waterproof membrane underneath.

Could be a fault in the fabric or it hasn't been washed properly. Try 30 minutes in the tumble drier to see if it re-activates the DWR but check the label first!!!!!!
 
Never seen anything like that in all of my years.
