Can anyone recommend a gilet with a semi-waterproof / fast drying front?

Is it worth having a waterproof back? Will be bearing a camelback with it.

Need it for racing 12s and long distance stuff if that makes any difference.

Any going for a good price in sales would be appreciated.

Thanks

I've got one of [url= http://www.wiggle.co.uk/sugoi-zap-hi-viz-wind-resistant-gilet/ ]these[/url] which I use mainly for a long-ish road commute. Well made, windproof and dries quickly when wet, vented back, very comfy.

Better to have a vented back than waterproof IMO, but I'm a sweaty betty.

Not sure if they do an equivalent but I'd recommend.

I bought one of these [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160663270277?var=460034550677 ]Tenn[/url] Gilets, and was so impressed I bought another. It's like a pertex material, really light, windproof and showerproof. Like it a lot. 14.99 delivered is cheapola too.
