The outer is 100% polyester with a durable water repellent finish, the seams are taped, and there are reflective strips down both sides for winter walks on a road.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe detail worth knowing is the harness slot — a rubber-lined opening through the back that lets a lead clip onto a harness underneath without letting rain in through the hole.
