If I was rich I'd buy it. Looks like an awesome rain coat that would keep you warm. I have been rocking a much less expensive 32 degrees raincoat from costco I got a few years back. The patagonia looks a lot nicer though haha.

Great coat, just bought one a few weeks ago. A lot of people say the jacket is very "noisy" but is one of the best no maintenance rain jackets you can get.
Patagonia warranty also makes this stand out from other options.

My "2.5"L TNF/Colombia jackets have typically started peeling on the inside after 3-5 years of extremely light use, the 10-15 days a year I wear them. I never wear them enough to experience any wetting out, it's always the inside layer that starts peeling/flaking
How much longer will/would a true 3L last?

For real, does anyone know why this men's jacket has women's front closure? (it opens from the left, instead of the right)

I have the same problem and would like to know this too.

From what I can tell, you need to wash the 2.5L ones as skin oils degrade that inner spray-on coating "layer" within like 3 years. A true 3L jacket like this Patagonia one is expected to last much much longer, e.g. 15+ years since it's an actual fabric layer instead of a coating. Warranty makes it effectively last forever as well.
You should still wash the 3L jackets to clean any oils from the membrane - they will cause "wetting out" to happen faster. But remember wetting out is mainly an issue because it decreases breathability. You should stay protected from rain even if the jacket is completely wetted out - you may be wet due to sweat though.
