I've got great cold weather gear. Great mesh. And while my primary riding jacket is very comfortable and effective, wet or dry, I like to be able to wear just work clothes or mesh in the rain, so I always have a rain shell, top and bottom, on the bike. While frogg toggs horny toadz pants don't last forever, they work great and are easy to don and doff. When I wore out my 5.11 hiviz, a motocentric jacket took rain duty. Even before today, which involved 3 hours in the rain in cool temps, I was considering a better rain shell. I arrived at the klim traverse only too late. Almost no sizes left at (close out) sub $200 pricing (I wear an XL and often use an XXL due to belt mounted gear), I just can't get behind a $400.00 rain shell. I get always wearing a full on waterproof riding jacket, and I own one. I still have a niche for a rain jacket. Enlighten me if you can recommend one.
