I'm looking to replace my old hardshells (old LL Bean garbage bags) with something a lot more comfortable and versatile. Ideally I'd like to get something suitable for four season use in New England. Obviously there is no true "4-season" solution but I'd like something I could use for spring-summer-fall and some winter (ie day trips and overnights, nothing too brutal). I've basically narrowed it down to the OR Foray and the Rab Latok Alpine. Would appreciate some input...

I would buy the cheaper of the two as they are very comparable. I haven't owned an eVent jacket so I can't comment on the performance but I can say the PacLite holds it's own against the newest DryQ Elite jacket I have with the exception of not being quite as breathable. However I paid more than double for the DryQ Elite.
