The ranger hoodie is good.

I'd much prefer the Stealth series or the Predator. I guess better materials. Sharkskin and Hardshell.

If you can find the Nike Softshell that I have, go for it. They are extremely light and very comfortable. I really like them. Sadly as Nike goes, their light and thin soft shell (don't get fooled by the thinness, I've been in pretty harsh winds with nothing but the Nike jacket, and my entire torso/chest/neck was completely un-phased) they go for about $200.

If you want a cheap waterproof jacket look at Black Diamond. I've got a softshell that is completely waterproof that was only $50.
