If its not a priority for waterPROOF, I love my Jetstream jacket from Sitka. Also check out Kuiu Guide DCS as well.

I can carry rain gear if needed.

For me... Something I wear as my top layer in 15 degrees vs 60 degrees is completely different. I usually build my kit based on the trip for the weather conditions and activity level. Are you talking more like a windbreaker since you go heavy on layering?

Like a softshell with windstopper

Kuiu Guide is my everyday choice. Its on the heavy/burly side of soft shells, full feature, slim fitting.

Sitka Mountain jacket is my lighter weight shell, if only it had a freaking hood Id be thrilled. Fabric is slightly louder than the Kuiu and no pit zips but it does a good job of breaking the wind for its weight.

I wear a windshirt as an outer layer from below 0 to 75+ degrees; for hunting my "go to" windshirt is a made for the military Patagonia one (Level 4 in military lingo)- it's a little heavier than the Patagonia Houdini I wear outside of hunting season, but it's also sturdier.

Kryptek Altitude Bora jacket.

If you have this you can skip having a rain jacket as well unless your in the Yukon or Kodiak IMO.

Also I just saw it for 50percent off online at Sportsman’s Warehouse.
