Been in early morning almost freezing uk weather wearing mine, a few layers, and I was a comfortable temp.. took the liner out for hot summer riding, and it's been OK for a 20-minute ride with vents open, but in traffic, it starts to warm up in the sunlight. I've been caught in a shower with it, no issues of water ingress, and I keep a Scott waterproof to go overtop in case it's properly raining.. With thermals for winter and a scott rain cover, it really be your only jacket from cold weather and into summer... if I rode further, I'd probably want something mesh or vented, but I'm just hanging in there because I'm cheap and I like a deal when buying.. Im comfortable and confident in the jacket that there is enough material + padding between me and tarmac in a small slide.. I feel it was money well spent, I'd recommend one, and if ruined I'd consider replacing it with another..
Very helpful video. Thanks for taking the time to write a real user review rather than shops that make out everything is always perfect!

Well done - excellent review.
You even give your height & jacket size - so helpful when ordering.
How would you say this jacket does in the 80 to 90°F range?
Toasty. The vents work wail to pull air out, but at a stop, you'll heat up. Ideal high temp for me was mid 80s.
