Best Wind Jacket

Has any one seen a jacket like this? I made this out of a rain coat several years ago. It has a "so-called" breathable membrane, yet does not breathe enough.

I need it to fasten with wide Velcro, not zippers; it’s too hard to open zippers with gloves on. So it needs to fold over a good bit. And it should have removable arms (wide Velcro not zippers). Also draw strings on the arm pits is needed.

It works as a vapor barrier and wind breaker. It could also have side vents. I really wish some company would make them. I seldom need anything more than this, and a merino wool vest under my quick dry polyester micro fiber shirt in the coldest part of winter.

I do not want insulation in the jacket! multi-layering is the only way to go. And PLEASE no stripes or other bicycle fashon googaws.
