GoLite Virga Jacket - Women's
Really liked it

This is a nice light jacket for wind and rain, but the best part is that it doesn't overheat you on those muggy, hot days. I used this in the Grand Canyon for a few day hiking trip. It was nice and light for traveling, I believe about 8 ounces, but totally did the job for wind, rain and warmth on the cool night. It is actually cute too. The color blocking is nice and slimming (which us ladies like). My only complaint is that the wrist elastic is a bit snug. I felt a little constrained on the wrists but it wasn't a big deal or any remote reason to return it. I really liked this jacket and totally recommend it over the Marmot Precip.
