Earth Sea Sky jackets are amazing, I have a lot of friends that use them and rate them very high. Being made in NZ it's great to support the brand.
I own an Arc'teryx Alpha LT Pro Shell and I love it! Couldn't ask for a better jacket, payed $500 for it instead of $850 and after using it once over New Years in the horrible rain, it more than payed for itself. I now swear by it! Mind you, I use it for Mountaineering and Tramping, not hunting.

I've got the Alpha, Alpha LT and Alpha pants. If you want lightweight & packable go the LT. If you want increased weather protection and abrasion resistance, go the Alpha. Best wet weather gear I've owned. Quietest that I've used, not much "swoosh swoosh". Arc'teryx has it's reputation for a reason.

The Alpha Parka looks nice, but if it's that wet I'll just put the pants on.

Hopefully they will last me many years. I haven't needed their lifetime warranty yet, but I have heard that they look after their customers.
