    found a reasonable waterproof in my local C&A. it rolls down to roughly 10″ x 3″ tube. weight….. about > this much <?

    besides emptying what little there is in my wallet by looking at Paclite jackets, what other options for a lightweight waterproof jacket are there?

    cheers

    Can definitely recommend the Montane as a lightweight jacket or even lighter weight smock. Both stuff down really small and weigh next to nothing.

    Montane h20 – good protection in light rain and wind, v v light. When rain gets too heavy and the sweat is dripping off me I always wish I had something more ‘robust’ as it feels like cling film especially on arms and legs. Saying all that though I would buy more montane (got smock, h2o pants and h2o jacket).

    so, the sizing on these montane jackets then….

    how do they come up? my chest is 96cm, roughly 36", and 5'7" tall. i've read on the CRC review bit that they come up big.

    thanks
