It isn't waterproof, but is quite water resistant, and I seldom ride in rainy conditions living in Utah, anyway. I found a cheap clearance cycling windbreaker REI for $35 or $40, and I just layer underneath according to temperatures.

The windbreaker shell you can stuff in a jersey pocket, and put back on if you need to.įor under $100, you can easily get such a shell, plus a couple of long-sleeve thermal shirts.Ĭlick to expand.This is what I do. With a real jacket, your alternatives are to zip it up or not, but it's generally too bulky to remove entirely if you get warm.
More important, you can more easily adjust as conditions change on a ride. With this approach, you can scale up for colder conditions just by adding more or heavier base layers. Underneath, depending on conditions, you wear a long-sleeve jersey, with a thermal base layer with a neck zipper for ventialtion (Sierra Trading Post has lots of those cheap, too). (for example: Canari Microlyte Shell Jacket - Windproof (For Men) - Save 37%). Layers, with the outermost being a simple windbreaker shell of polyester or nylon. If by "jacket" you mean a garment that incorporates both shell and insulation, let me suggest an alternative approach that I think is much more versatile, especially in the moderate temperature range you're talking about.
