im kind looking for something not so expensive maybe under $175, i realize what you pay for is what you get, but i'm not exactly rollin in the money as a college student and can sacrifice quality for price.

Check out the backcounry.com outlet.  They have tons of stuff left over from last season that is like 30-50% off.  Also evogear has some good stuff last year at a discount.  Check the local shops too they always have left over stuff.

Arcteryx>everything basically. But if you don't want to dish out the coin, I'd say go for Foursquare's Searle Shell.

i picked up an awesome marmot shell at REI for 200 bucks last week.  its really lightweight, great waterproofing, good hood, powderskirt, fancy color, it's a really nice coat.  i really wanted a nice coat, cause i haven't gotten a new one in like 5 years, so i did a lot of research, checked out a lot of brands, tried on tons, and this was my favorite.  bang for the buck, im very happy
