Good evening folks! I am looking for a decent waterpoof jacket but getting kinda stumped at the options.

While I would mainly use it for just taking walks, I do want something a little better that I could possibly use on hikes and such as well (might as well get a better one right away in case I ever decide to do something like that).

Now, I've found Jack Wolfskin have some nice looking ones (in particular the Elsberg 2,5l), but opinions on the brand seem to differ a lot.

So I wanted to ask if anyone can recommend a good brand I can get in Europe that fits my budget and delivers decent quality. Thanks everyone in advance!

I bought this about 6 months ago and it's been great. Every couple of weeks I find a new pocket. It's waterproof, windproof, versatile, sturdy, hard wearing. Quite heavy, but so far I really like it.

Now, that’s a jacket.

Edit: I’m impressed at the price for what looks to be great quality.
