Which Assos jacket: Clima, Oxy, or Ghibli?

[Clem]

I am in the process of deciding on which would be the best to use as a commuting jacket, as well as
for road riding. I'd appreciate any feedback I can get. I need something light enough that it will
pack easily into a jersey pocket. Some rain resistance is required too. Though I don't intend on
riding through any downpours, I may occasionally get caught in one. Certainly I will be riding in
drizzly conditions. There is also the question of breathability. How fragile is the Clima when it
comes to everyday use? Finally, what about sizing? My chest measurement is 36". Everything points to
a small (size1). Any comments on that?

Thanks, Mike

I have a Clima. It is terrific for breathability and water resistance on fast wet rides, but, in my
opinion, it's *far* too fragile for the wear and tear of everyday commuting.
