Yes, I know that they exist. But it freezes so rarely here that I can ride almost the entire winter without having to use a set of squishy specialty ice tires. I'd just rather ride the bus when it gets that cold, anyway.

I would suggest the North Face jacket and the Hillside vest in combo on cool and rainy days, and either one or the other on the remaining commuting days.

PS.

You're welcome! :)

Please forgo the plastic junk. Wool! Wool! Wool!

Just buy a nice wool sweater at the local thrift store. Retains its warmth even when wet. I switched last year and can't believe the performance. Wore it and other base wool down to 8 degrees, in snow, rain, wind, etc. Breathes well but keeps you warm.

Sorry, didn't see that you wanted to have something to wear over your business clothes. If so, may check out Brooks. I remember seeing that they have a very nice riding jacket.

This has been my go-to jacket for the past three seasons (year-round with extra layers): http://shop.craftsports.us/sports/bike/bike-rain-jacket.html
