5000mm isn't waterproof either. Spyder stuff is just a big fluffy sponge.

^That looks like a racing coat, but if that's your style, cool. But if it's not, look for something more freestylish.

i was also looking at either the sessions archetype
http://www.the-house.com/se3ar04bzzsessions.html

or the sessions chameleon
http://www.the-house.com/se3ch02azzsessions.html

but i'm not sure what would be the best jacket

The raven is insulated, the archtype is pretty cool, and looks warm.

This is a pretty cool setup, it's a little edgy. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=83046&item=7168106193&rd=1

This is pretty cool, and will probably go cheap.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=83046&item=7168565478&rd=1

This is kinda cool
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=83046&item=7169251777&rd=1
Burton makes some nice stuff.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=83046&item=7169134523&rd=1
Holden makes some cool stuff, and this jacket has 20000mm
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=83046&item=7169243250&rd=1
Another holden
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=83046&item=7169239970&rd=1
Special blend
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=21235&item=7168337506&rd=1
And that's pretty much all the cool ones on ebay, I'm not sure what size you are, so I just linked everything.

yeah i'm an xl/xxl so none of those jackets would fit me anyway. thanks though, i appreciate the effort.
i dunno, i torn between the sessions archetype or chameleon, the siver raven insulated, or the helly hansen santo.
which one which one.......

^Get the archetype, it's the warmest and most waterproof. The siver jacket is not very waterproof at all, like 3000.

is waterproofing really noticable? like how much of a difference is there between 3000mm and a 10000mm waterproofing?

From what I hear, alot. Some people wont buy a coat that is under 10000.

You could always get four of these jackets.

I dont get anything with under 1000 any more. I had little to no water proofing last year and i got soaked every day it snowed or they were making snow.

50 isnt bad for what you get. mines XL and im 6ft, 155 ish. so if you buy K2, get a size or 2 larger than normal.
