Hi, that's me. It's a nice ****ing jacket. It cost me about 160, which isn't a whole lot more than my previous nice ****ing jacket, which wasn't even cycling-specific.

The asymmetric front is so that you can hold the top of one section in your teeth for a few seconds while you zip/unzip. It only takes one hand, so you can keep control of the bike. So even besides the fit on the thing, it's built for the stuff you DO on a bike. Like going 29mph in the rain and you want to vent a little.


I mean, I can understand the hate, my crapass Bellwether jacket + light wool zip sweater (15 bucks total) works 90% as well. But given how much time I spend on my bike..... meh......
