I currently have a Humvee waterproof jacket. No complaints really. But want a bright one. I see they do a hi-vis yellow one but before I order any others work checking out for around £100?
Just seen in the sales the GV500 in Paprika which looks bright. How does that compare to the Humvee anyone know?
I’ve got a traditional Altura Nevis in lumi yellow. It’s a horrid colour, but has been so comfortable in really foul weather. It’s got a mesh lining for warmth, plus huge vent zips down each side. Between this and a kind of waterproof Scott in traffic cone colour, I’ve got all the bad weather covered.
(The Scott is really rather eye catching, not in a good way, and isn’t good at breathability or waterpoofing – I’m replacing asap)
I’ve got the GV 500 but not used yet… 18.5° on Marin Siabod loop 2 weeks ago meant shorts and short sleeves 😳 certainly bright and a really nice fit though 👌
That royal racing one looks nice. Madison one too. But my last Madison one always had an issue with the zip getting caught in the lining and was always getting stuck in it lol
From the photos on the website, the GV500 doesn’t pack down as small as the MT500 Shell did. Shame they seem to have discontinued it. Was an ideal hip pack jacket.
ive the endura humvee in black (mtb) and the madison in yellow (commute) – aside from colour they are remarkably similar in performance and pockets and price.
i slightly prefer the looser cuffs on the humvee to cover gloves…. ymmv.
