Does anyone have experience with both of these jackets and can kindly give me your thoughts comparing the two? Both are rain jackets 7-8 oz. Just curious how they stack up to each other. I need a new lightweight shell and a windshirt. I doubt these would work well as windshirts due to lack of breathability of rainproof material. Thanks for any insight…

The montane litespeed on ebay – sounds awesome and dirtcheap. This is a windshirt but they say it takes quite a while to wet through, supposedly 2 hours in rain, so they call it “Showerproof”
Drawback is color – blue or red. Call before ordering.
