Can't comment on the Shuksan, but I've got the Rab Latok Alpine, also an eVent jacket with comparable specs that retails for $275. It's a bit hard to find in the States, but a great jacket.You can find the RAB latok Alpine at Feathered Friends in Seattle. Give them a call at 206.292.2210 to orderAdditional info: I recently purchased a Shuksan and swear by it. Everything seems pretty similar between the two, except the Shuksan has four large/deep external pockets with two internal mesh ones. I'm sure it affects weight though.
