Today at REJ, I saw a cycling jacket, which was convertible to a vest, that was made with this technology. It was quite expensive at $189. Curious if anyone has tried it, or other Gore Windstopper products for cycling.
With the gloves I've seen windproof, highly water resistant, and very breathable. Could be a nice combo of attributes for my AO.
I have a cycling jacket with Gore Windstopper and it's the only outer layer I use in the winter. Depending on how cold it is, I add layers under it. I've used it to ride in temperatures in the 20's (F). Mine does not have removable sleeves but I wish it did. They are not cheap, but they last a long time.
