    Morning all, so I'm looking to go down a totally different route clothing wise, but finding this motorcycling love affair a little expensive so looking to maximise my bang for buck ratios!

    I'm looking for recommendations for a high vis, nicely cut armoured jacket that can keep me cool on these hot British summer days (ok non Brits...it's hot for us, ok! :p) but also...serve me in my 30 minute winter commute as well?

    An example is the
    rev'it tornado 2 hv jacket

    https://www.getgeared.co.uk/rev-it-...8F_xYiEpcugcxuWyskfG0Z9KoWOAaKsMaAuTdEALw_wcB

    I love the cut. I like the hi Vis. I like the venting...but it likely won't get me to the depths of winter, will it?

    Any thoughts or opinions?

    Thanks all...safe ridding!

    No, it won't get you through winter unless you wear a base layer or layers underneath then it should be fine. :cool:

    The nearest to your requirements come to is the Oxford Mondial suit. Comes inHi viz or plain black.

    Woolly bear suit or lots of layers for the winter............if there was such a thing that kept you perfectly warm in the winter, nice and cool in the summer, well protected and hi-vis then whoever had produced this holy grail would be multi millionaires by now :p:p
