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.

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. -- zk
