Rain jacket - Lightweight / quiet / "breathable" / affordable

[Panhandler80]

Any recommendations. Hopefully it'll spend most of its time in my pack on a 5-day hunt. Only real purpose is a shell. Insulation not needed. Will have opportunity to air it out each night, which is nice. Also be interested in the same qualities in a pair of pants.

Was kind of eyeballing this, but I could see it being loud.

OR Helium might be a decent option

I pickup a helium for just that reason , packs small and will always be there.
Not to noisy but I dont think a would actively hunt in it during archery season anyway.
I have other rain gear for later season

Marmot Precip has served me well for several years. It packs into its own pocket, does not weigh much, and is decently quiet. Also affordable.

Thanks. Keep them coming.

Everything I own is super cold or super hot. This will be a different kind of hunt and, again, the jacket can be dried out each evening. I just wanna stick it in my pack. It’s not a three or four day raincoat that requires actual waterproof. However, I’m OK spending decent money on something that will do a purpose in different hunts.
