also, at what temperature (real feel) would you start wearing a jacket like this. I have never held one or perused one. Would you wear this at 45 degrees with one wicking shirt underneath? would that be about right?mike

as to when you start wearing the jacket is a personal choice when the weather turns cold I will start by wearing arm and knee warmers with va vest this makes it easy to remove items that can fit in jesery pockets. if it feels to cold for this then I will put on a light weight jacket which can also be stuffed in a pocket. then when it gets down around 35-40 degrees I move to leg warmers or tights and a jacket like this with a base layer under keeps me warm down to around 25 degrees. here are some great cool to cold weather optionshttp://www.backcountry.com/store/PLZ0246/Pearl-Izumi-Vagabond-Jacket-Mens.htmlhttp://www.backcountry.com/store/CST0101/Castelli-Nano-Arm-Warmer.htmlhttp://www.backcountry.com/store/PLZ0347/Pearl-Izumi-Vertex-Thermafleece-Bib-Knicker-Mens.htmlhttp://www.backcountry.com/store/GBW0052/Gore-Bike-Wear-Leg-Warmer-III.htmlhttp://www.backcountry.com/store/PLZ0262/Pearl-Izumi-Slice-Thermafleece-Cycling-Bib-Tight-Mens.html
