I just dont understand why a jacket like this is only available in black.
Assuming that when one needs a rain jacket, visibility is compromised already. I dont necessarily demand day-glow orange, but these days I want my outer layers to be pretty bright and noticeable. Give drivers the best chance of seeing me. It also looks pretty damned expensive for a packable shell. But no, never tried one, so my comments are worth about what you paid for them

Dislike the color and price. $350 is bonkers when a plastic mesh rain jacket will do the same for maybe 20-30 dollars.

Genuinely curious what you do care about then because it looks like any other black cycling rain jacket. There is no technology or jacket that exists that will keep you dry on the inside and outside at the same time. So therefore it comes down to style, fit and brand IMO. I think that one doesn’t look very nice and would get an Assos.

"most" all my winter miles are commuting or zone 1/2 type riding. I run hella lights and I am beyond visible. If I get creamed on the road a yellow jacket ain't gonna help. I'm also rather reflective and wear orange and or white helmets. I'll put you down for a no. |

Bit of an odd approach for help.
If cost is immaterial you could buy half a dozen models and try 'em on. |

Size and color are just two metrics. I'm curious about overall fit/breathability/durability to name a few. Yes I can and might order every size and color of ea. model of jacket 7Mesh makes and then return most of it. I wasn't trying to impress anyone but I also didn't ask if people thought it was too expensive I asked if anyone owned it and how they liked it. Any chance you own one? |

I would be interested to hear about this jacket also. I commute every day. I have been really liking the Castelli ROS Alpha jacket. Gore Infinium material and Polartec Alpha liner. Very trim fit. The 7 Mesh jacket may not fit in a jersey pocket but I am sure it would fit in my Osprey backpack.
