I also have a Helly Hansen breathable semi dry top that I bought new for $35 (because it's pink and no-one else had the balls to wear it). Not a issue for me. It's a bit lighter than the Simms and it was cheap. I don't own or ever wear anything with a hood.
how effective is the dry top at keeping water out if submerged for any period of time? is basically what im trying to decipher here. (not completely submerged but half of its got be spending time in the water right?)
