Ok so I picked up A sterns packable rain jacket seems to be pretty good quality from the thrift store for a couple of bucks.
It weighs in at 7 ounces and seems to be ok.
I am curious if anyone has used this sterns type jacket or if anyone has any experience with them.
I am sure it is not very breathable but from what I have heard there isnt many out there that is breathable,
I am just trying to justify not spending 200.00 on a raincoat that this one will do.
Thanks for the information everyone.
