I was in the same boat. Ended up trying on a million jackets at sports basement, looking for something that fit well and wasn't $400. Bought a north face jacket, solid blue, enough room in the shoulders, enough ''features'' ie: pockets, hood, about $150 ish on sale. I'm not much of a brand whore. There are brands that I won't wear because of experience with quality or fit and also brands associated with particular groups of people with whom I don't want to be associated.
Just go to a mainstream store?
