Light weight rain jacket
Can someone please recommend a light weight rain jacket that I can buy.
I’m currently using a vigalante soft shell/ waterproof. Great jacket but far to big and heavy.
Was after something very light and good value.

It's been an interesting foray into their world of sustainability and recycling.
A sign of a society with wealth for sure.
Likely a panicked attempt to stave off the inevitable collapse.
I will care less about the cost to me over time. I really want what does the job.
Yup no more hightail unfortunately
I'd recommend the Rab Spark, lightweight breathable and good value, performs well

Alternatively maybe less features, but difficult to go wrong at this price from SportsShoes in the UK.

Their own brand Higher State, designed in the UK but made in China (but aren't many things these days), I've good experience of their own brand gear
