    Anyone use one?

    Not many reviews, the fit seemd tight, no stretch, not that breathable – is it much cop for short (5 mile) commuting with the odd shower/pub visit?

    I’ve got one, I really like it BUT…… it’s really REALLY un-breathable. I’d be far too warm cycling properly for 5 miles in it.

    I dunno, I don’t think I’d recommend it to anyone, but I like mine. It’s nice having “normal” looking waterproof stuff. There’s probably newer jackets that are better.

    Cheers – worse than a waterproof?

    Half price just now.

    I agree with colonel wax. Order at least a size up and they’re not breathable. I’ve been caught in some heavy rain though and can vouch for the impermeability.
    I like the idea that you’ve got something waterproof that doesn’t look like it is. And elbow patches.

    Indeed, that prompted this thread.

    It looks like the same ( or similar) material to the stuff Sombrio used for their Roam trousers. Looks nice but very stiff fabric and really clammy and sweaty.
