I have both the BAShures and Softies. I haven't had an issue with either of them as far as the wind goes, so if price is your primary factor I'd probably go with the Shures because they're cheaper. That said, I definitely prefer the softies. The rear rubber seal is superior for ensuring the screen stays in place, which admittedly isn't much of an issue on the BAShures either but could be if you're using short mics, such as in the case of active setups. I also like how I can throw them in my bag and even if they're packed in there, they spring right back to original shape immediately. The Softies also excel when exposed to rain IMHO because the foam and fur material doesn't retain water. After rain, just give it a squeeze and a shake to get any moisture out, then comb or fluff the fur and they're pretty much back to original again.
