I'm looking for a trail running jacket (for rain and subfreezing temps): light weight, waterproof, breathable, etc. I sweat a lot and am generally quite warm if exerting myself. This seems like a great jacket, but is it overkill for what I want? Any other suggestions for something that would fit the bill?
thanks!

haha honestly no, this sounds to be exatly what you are looking for...you really do get what you pay for, but this is paying A LOT. a less costly option would be this TNF2826 (copy past into search bar, hit enter), the north face venture jacket, thin and Incredibly lighweight, water proof...it definitly wont breathe as well as eVent, but it costs $200 less. once again you get what you pay for
