Looking for a lightweight waterproof shell (jacket) for climbing/mountaineering/hillwalking but not sure what to go for.
Requirements:
Price Range: £70 - £150
Lightweight
Packable
The type that lives mainly at the bottom of your pack for about 8months of the year but can still withstand those really wet spring/summer days etc.
Breathable (to an extent i.e. acceptable for the price range)
I have tried a couple of jackets on but can't make my mind up. To give an example of what I have looked at so far. (I am not set on these jackets just stating them as examples).
Alpkit Argonaut (cheapest)
Alpkit Balance
Rab Fuse II
Rab Downpour Plus
Any advice or recommendations ?
Thanks
