It's starting to get a bit worn now so I'm going to get a new one for Christmas. The equivalent jacket to mine is about £80/£90, can anyone recommend something similar in quality that might cost marginally less?

I understand they lose waterproof when cleaned, so the result is I'm stuck with unstuck vents! A colleague at work also has an Endura jacket with unstuck vents on a £150 jacket. Good otherwise though...still works but not ideal
