Help me choose between two different waterproof jackets

Now I do a lot of walking with the dogs and often come back from a rain sodden muddy field with piles of dirt and grime all over me.   What I actually need is a really good set of Waterproof Jackets which is why I’ve been looking at a range of outdoor clothing sites to help find some decent stuff.   

I’ve narrowed down the selection to Montane, Berghaus, and Mountain Equipment which seem to offer the best blend of price, style, and quality.   Right now I’m torn between the Berghaus Calisto jacket and the Montane superfly XT jacket - with the latter being 4 times more expensive but much more lightweight and breathable.

 Anyone have any suggestions as to which one is better?

What Antique Dolls should not be like?

No doubt, for anyone with a passion for collecting antique dolls, nothing but the best will do for them, and so before buying an antique doll you must consider a few things to ensure you are getting the real deal. To begin with, the antique dolls must not show signs of ‘weathering’ and they should also be free from cracks and even crazing and all of the limbs must also be intact. In addition, you should also fight shy of buying dolls that have been repainted and even cleaned up because that will take away from the charm of owning an authentic antique doll – not to mention less value. Thus, you must not let emotions cloud your vision and so, exercise caution before making your final decision.
