I have a Decathlon Ultralight Windproof cycling jacket http://www.decathlon.co.uk/700-ultralight-windproof-cycling-jacket-yellow-id_8283389.html.
Its now getting past its best so I am looking to see if there are any other replacements before I buy another one.
I like that it is very lightweight so is easy to carry. It doesn't keep heavy rain out but I think if it did I would overheat sooner. I don't particularly like the fit as its tight round the waist but a bit loose and flappy at the top.
Any suggestions?

I have the DHB one, it's light, quite breathable and surprisingly waterproof (so far) and I've had to use it in some nasty rain. It seems a little on the short side but actually fine when cycling.

This Exteondo rain waterproof is an absolute steal at under £25. I've got one and think it's excellent. Packs small, warweproof and breathes well. Only size small left though.

Endura FS260 Adrenaline Race Cape is superb. Very light, race fit, soft fabric, taped seams, breathable, comes with storage bag. Had the white one in medium, but it washed to a silvery grey colour. Now got the black one in small and the fit is snug but very comfortable and no flapping or rustling.0

This. Picked one up at the weekend and it's a brilliant piece of kit for the cash0
