Gore-Tex is more water repellent than waterproof. Some owners of Gore-Tex complain that the repellent layer wears off over time.

Many gortex jacket is very 100% waterproof. However make sure you check the label to make sure that the jacket is actual gortex and not the fake gortex which is not 100 precent waterproof.
