First Lite, Vapor Lite Help

[Danimal]

Guys,

I have a FL vapor light rain jacket that I like. Got caught in a pretty decent rain the other day and it seemed to be leaking pretty good around the shoulder seams. While I'd be happier if it didn't leak, I'm not going to crap on the jacket because it is on its 3rd season and is super light and comfortable. Unfortunately if it leaks it doesn't serve its main purpose.

Has anyone had this problem before, (I heard I'm not the first) and how did you fix it. I heard "seam sealer" will work but don't really know where or how to apply it. I've wet the jacket and there doesn't seem to be one obvious place that the water is coming in.

Thanks for any help.

Treat the seams with sealer, treat with Nikwax tech spray..

Mine could not handle sustained rain either which is why I switched it out for Goretex Pro Sitka (Kodiak Jacket).

Haven't had the chance to test the new jacket yet but feel more confidence based on material choice.
