I currently have, and love, a Tourmaster Transition 2 jacket which has proved to be a reliable and comfortable 3/4 season jacket. It's served me well for a very long time. It's got character (which is a nice way to say that it's filthy from riding the crap out of it). Unfortunately though it's just too hot to wear here in the Mid-South summers and I find myself in search of a 1/4 season jacket.
I just bought a Sedici mesh jacket but I just can't get myself to really like it. First, it's not as cool as I'd hoped, the collar tends to dig into my neck when I do that blind-spot-clearing thing, and finally, it just doesn't have enough hi-viz material for my liking. I'm about to order a Firstgear Adventure Mesh (hi-viz of course) and thought I'd poll the collective and see what you folks think. I am not going to pony-up the better part of a thousand dollars for the really high-end gear, this jacket will be used primarily for daily commuting so I'm not concerned about being hermetically sealed against rain. Just looking for something to bridge the hot-weather season until I can snuggle back into my now-tortuous Tourmaster.
So, what do you think?
