HD website had these on sale for $175 recently. Not sure if they still do but looked like a good jacket for a great price to me

I think you also might like Olympia jackets. Some models are 3 or 4-season, and I would definitely buy one if I lived in a northerly climate. ETA: I confused this thread with the one about a jacket for your wife. I was recommending the Olympia for your wife, as I looked at them yesterday in a BMW dealership down here. I just bought a Scorpion mesh jacket over Christmas, and wish the neoprene collar went all the way around like the Olympia does. HTH. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming. :-D
