Does the rain coat allow fast walking? If too long, can it be cut.shortened?

I bought mine XTRA large so I could fit a coat underneath. It is roomy and comfortable. As far as cutting it off, why would you want to. I chose this one because it was long and covered my knees. Didn't want water draining down my pants! If you want a shorter coat I'd find another style rather that cut this one.

depends on your definition of short/long? Upon folding, the umbrella goes from foot to ~between hip and navel.

Yes. The zippers each have flaps that overlap the teeth so rain can't get it that way either.

Depends on the size of your umbrella stroller. If it's one of those super compact lightweight 30 dollars ones, then no. But if it's bigger, and has a tray in front then yes. The design is made with ties at each end to tighten the cover and fit your stroller size, but the fabric pieces are rather large, so it may be too much fabric for your stroller. I put mine on a babytrends jogger stroller (those three wheels ones) and I absolutely love it. Actually, my baby prefers it now because it provides shade and let's him look around without squinting. Worth every penny. Haven't used the rain cover because I myself don't want to walk in the rain. Depends on the size of your umbrella stroller.

Hi, the jackets' hood has a zipper around the neck..so would have to undo for a drink. For me, as I am short and wide...the extra head material for the size I need can get in the way a bit but (scroll down) it is worth it for me....as I deal with with the issue of WI state insect ..mosquito...having a party in my garden with the no see ums. It keeps both out and I am able to garden. :)

Yes..it's more of a full cut jacket. Check out the review on outdoorgearlab.

Definitely. With the rain coat in the bottom it creates a decent 3 inches of padding. Unless you plan on checking the bag you should be fine.

There's a plastic tube inside the fabric you can pull out so yes you would be able to cut it shorter and no I strap it to my back pack with no problems its pretty solid

Tricky question. If he were to tuck it in and keep it clear of the wheels, yes, but it would be awkward and get very hot quickly. It's very possible he'd get soaked with sweat before he got soaked with rain! If it draped over him and the chair, he'd have to be very careful of getting it caught in the wheels as it's a fairly generously cut garment, depending on his size. It he went slow and practiced, he should be ok. Again, depending on his size and the drape of the poncho, some tucking or trimming may be necessary. Unfortunately, ponchos like these weren't designed for sitting in a wheelchair. On the bright side though, the fabric is tough enough that minor trimming if needed shouldn't fray the material.

The package states normal wetting from rainfall will not effect it, but advise removing the collar when bathing. So, it doesn't sound like swimming with it on would be a good idea.

There is a bit of a lining. I don't find it sticky or uncomfortable at all, but I understand the concern. I think the lining (very light and only partial) makes the difference, but it all depends on how high your tolerance is for polyester rain jackets in general.

no, to my knowledge they cannot be cut to length, because it ruins the blister pack that keeps it waterproof

Yes. Works great for walk in shower with a lip, where most shower curtains are too short. Nice quality.

Yes. The smaller fitting twists off. So it can be shortened, but you have to do it from the the smaller fitting.

I am 5'7 and it was very long on me. If I were your height I would probably go a little shorter. But, you can always cut it.

Yes. At least as good as a fabric raincoat. Since the canopy is a fabric (the source of its strength), the fabric stretches in places during rain storms near the lower rim so that some water accumulates in the shallow bowls formed in the canopy. We found that cutting small slits in those places removed the problem. Since they are along the outer sides of the canopy, the had no effect on the central seating area. We have sat through rain showers in comfort. Oh, sinced the slits are only 1/2 inch, they are barely visible when the canopy is dry.

Yes the coat is not tight around your legs or waist. Walking is not a problem.
