Sierra Designs Microlight for $99
Folds up to a softball size in the small bag it comes in.



In the bag it's about this size. Easy to pack







Dollar Store vinyl ponchos are a steam room in the summer.

Are you looking for effective, dressy, or both?

My one recommendation is to go for one constructed of breathable, waterproof membrane (goretex or similar), instead of a jacket that’s just tight weave fabric treated with a DWR coating.

I’ve had a Topo Designs global jacket for probably 7 years now. There are probably better options out there, but it’s been a great rain jacket. I do need to give it another DWR spray sometime soon, because the outer fabric will start to soak up water these days (even though I’m still bone dry inside.)

REI rain coat should be fine, Arc'teryx if you hate money. Shell underneath (if needed) is the real worry.

Also just pick up some waterproof washing detergent from Amazon when you buy it, makes stuff so much easier.

Depends on use.
Fishing, hiking, or sitting? Moving on ATV?
