I have read good things about them but yeah $800

Am with you on this one @craigc I’d say 90% of the time I wear my rain jacket is as a wind barrier, but when I wear it in the rain I expect it to stay dry.

It's pretty easy to spend $3-400 ($550 in the case of the Stoney Creek Nitz) on hunting brand crap that will last a fraction of the time and perform poorly though. I'm not a rich man by any means (and my cactus jacket was actually given to me) but I've long since given up spending hard earned dollars on all the hunting brand complete crap that is on the market. A general rule of thumb is if it's pushed by HnF then it's crap.
