It may have something to do with its age.

Not saying this is what happened here, but you would be surprised how many people think their rain jacket or waterproof boots aren't working, when really they're just sweating and not realizing it. It happens a lot.
That can definitely be true but not the case in my situation.
I decided I didn't want to risk it again (I was on the side of a mountain) so I picked up an Arcteryx GoreTex Pro shell before my last trip. I then used it and was very impressed with its breathability. Of course proper layering and pit zips help.
Remembered I have a pic wearing the jacket. The sky fell out right after this on the way down and I got soaking wet.
