IWA a very light quality rain coat £100

I am after a good quality, v. lghtweight, breathable rain jacket for walking. Something like Berghaus, North Face, Rab, they all do them. I have around £100 to spend. Any user recommendations please, and good sites to buy?

Thanks

    Not that I know much about these things but it appears you can get em a lot cheaper than £100: http://www.oswaldbailey.co.uk/rkmain.asp?PAGEID=60195&STK_PROD_CODE=441016&CTL_CAT_CODE=30152

    That's £80 in the savings account :D

    I do recommend Oswald Bailey as are very knowledgeable, they are reasonably priced and their staff are always happy to help.

  • Thanks, but you get what you pay for. These would be just like the old pacamacs, not breathable, very sweaty, but thanks anyway.

    Have a look at Millets, Blacks, Go Outdoors...or go into TK Maxx, they usually have a good selection.
