- “Water-resistant garments have a lower level of rain protection.” They repel water to a certain extent. However, this does not mean they are waterproof. If they are exposed to more than a certain amount of water, it will soak through. In other words, water will not pass through the fabric easily, because it is designed and created to endure, but not completely block the penetration of water.
