Anything thats waterproof and breathable are generally some compromise of the two.
Even the best stuff is not really both, its just waterproof for longer and slightly breathable.

The only thing thats truly waterproof are not breathable at all but if youre doing high exertion then you will trap your sweat moisture inside..

Its mostly just marketing to say waterproof and breathable. They never have to prove how waterproof and how breathable and for how long.
