Light jacket for general wear and rain

[R.Russell]

I've got the Marmot Precip

sweet in dry climates....
I've heard great things about EVENT fabric....

Works, thanks Thomas :thumbup:.

I'd love to pick up some eVent, but it will be a while before I can afford it :grumpy:. It's looks awesome though.
