It's not exactly heavy, but I wouldn't consider it light weight at 24 oz. It also depends on what you are using it for. If you are just looking for a simple rain jacket on a budget and like Marmot, then check out the PreCip which comes in at only 12 oz. If you are looking for something a little more durable but with a similar weight to the Marmot PreCip, then look into any Gore-Tex Paclite jacket. A Paclite jacket will likely be slightly lighter and more expensive than the PreCip, but it will be more durable as it utilizes a membrane on the interior surface. The PreCip uses a DWR coating on the exterior surface which can wear off over time.
