Fantastic thread, especially as it's suddenly become relevant to me. I appreciate all the answers so far. However, please allow me to broaden the question. Jackets are one thing, but what about something for the legs? I got stuck out in the rain yesterday, and my Land's End jacket was fine for my upper body (I got a tiny bit damp, but it breathes well, and I didn't sweat. ). However, my legs got soaked, cold, stiff, and I ended up with sore knees. Temps were in the 60s. I don't like the idea of wearing shorts in these temps, and it will be going quite lower in the next couple of months. What do people do in these temps and for legs? Also, the Yehuda in the wears a cape. Anybody do this in real life? What are the benefits/difficulties of a cape? BTW, fashion is of no concern to me. ;-)
