What are good waterproof jackets? (budget ~100-200€) (feddit.de)

Good evening folks! I am looking for a decent waterpoof jacket but getting kinda stumped at the options.

While I would mainly use it for just taking walks, I do want something a little better that I could possibly use on hikes and such as well (might as well get a better one right away in case I ever decide to do something like that).

Now, I've found Jack Wolfskin have some nice looking ones (in particular the Elsberg 2,5l), but opinions on the brand seem to differ a lot.

So I wanted to ask if anyone can recommend a good brand I can get in Europe that fits my budget and delivers decent quality. Thanks everyone in advance!

The Alpha Industries MA-1 jacket is the best jacket I've bought. It's very waterproof but kind of heavy. It's at the higher end of your budget but Alpha is worth checking out.
