It seems a little awkward to wear bike specific clothing if you ride in upright position?
I also have a Showers Pass jacket, and agree except for that stupid drop tail with an upright riding position. It was constantly coming unsnapped and hanging up on my seat when dismounting, so I cut the darn thing off.
Problem solved.
