Having lost a bit of weight I am finding I am feeling the cold more, well lets say I am freezing but the dog is happy as the heater is getting a hammering [its winter downunder] :) Anyway I have come back to to this idea of a wind jacket for running and riding and maybe walking as well. In my research I came across a couple of interesting options at Ultra Light Outdoor Gear (UK):
Montane Featherlite 7Â which weighs in at 46g for the large.
OMM Sonic which weighs in at 62g for the large.
Both stow in their collars.
I appreciate that maybe in a backpacking context these are not a mainstream clothing item but I thought I would ask here anyway as maybe we have some trail runners or runners or cyclists with experience of same or thoughts. So not being that up on wind jackets would these tick the boxes? I am assuming the three key criteria are wind protection, breathability and light rain protection. Being light and packable are definite pluses for me at least.
