- Ugh, for the same reasons I don't want to wear it skiing or doing anything where I expect to fall down - don't want to rip it or wear it.
- Looks like this is mostly just for biking in the winter or in rain, don't want to wear it while I have anything rubbing against it.

Actually go biking in subfreezing temperature

- Ok, I don't care about multi-use any more, just want something as windproof and breathable as possible!
