In summer heat I use the Vanson Vent Max for the last 6 years. I am now thinking of buying the Vent Max 4 version.

Get the right size. Some will not agree, this type of jacket should fit close/snug to you like tee shirt. I am using small. Once you get use to it it does not seem like you are even wearing a jacket. Contrary the sung fit gives you the best range of motion.

Get it to loose and you will get beaten to death.

But since you wear Langlitz you know what fit means. Also I have light goat skin that I wear in the spring.
