sitka jetstream lite vs mountain jacket

[highcountry10]

I have a jet stream lite but I was thinking about buying the mountain jacket. Is there much difference between the two or worth it. Camofire has them for sale now.

I owned and sold a jetstream light. I have a mountain jacket that I bought after season this year. Haven’t fielded it yet but I don’t see a lot of practical difference. I think the seams were taped on the jetstream lite. Maybe someone else has used them and knows more.

Now the jetstream is a step up in weight and warmth.

I had the jet steam lite vest( slight bit of insulation), mountain vest and the mountain jacket...no insulation.
Honestly I didn’t have a use for any one of them. No insulation to speak of, purely wind breaking garments. I moved them all. I will use my dewpoint as it will do the same thing yet keep me dry in rain.
The jet stream vest....whole different ball game. Warm for its weight, wind proof. Gets a ton of use.
