    I am looking to buy a winter riding jacket, for commuting and what not.

    I am living in Paris, so it will be getting cold, and wet at times. From surfing around, and reading
    a few posts here, I am interested in the Race Face Aquanot, the Sugoi Bosui Vapour Urban II, and the
    Roach Indy Jacket.

    If you have anything good, or bad, to say about these jackets, I would like to know. Additional
    suggestions are welcome.

    As of now, I am leaning towards the Aquanot. I like the underarm zip's and the velcro wrist cuffs. I
    can't stand elasticized cuffs.

    Thanks

    Alex

    Yeah, I noticed that on Sugoi's Urban II, the Ultimate has velcro cuffs but appears to be
    discontinued. The zip vent has two sliders and opens from the elbows to the waist. Nice feature but
    the zipped pockets aren't very convenient as they're not accessible from the outside.

    It keeps me dry. It's not insulated but is cut to fit over layers.
