My wife just surprised me with the Hi Vi Orange mesh jacket and I LOVE it.

I wore it today for the first time and it was extremely cool especially on the arms wearing a short sleeve t-shirt.

Man is it BRIGHT! It reflects off the bezels on the gauges and takes a little getting use to. I feel very safe in it from several aspects.

I have the Cold Steel one you're talking about, it's really nice. It was just over 100 when I left work today, I had one of those water vests on underneath it, and I didn't sweat at all. Completely comfortable.

It is what it is.

Yeah you're right. I used to live in S Fla. The summers there and here are identical. Brutal. Hmmm, maybe I could invent an air conditioned suit and get rich!
