Re: Looking for Jacket in Hot, Cold and rainy conditions
The quest for a good in cold and heat jacket has been elusive to say the least. My conclusion is it does not truly exist. So no matter what you wear plan on being hot if you are not moving. When it’s 90 out and you are wearing a jacket at a stop light you will be hot period. If it is vented it will help but you will still be hot. I carry a rain suit for days that it might rain.

I think you'll find that jacket meets most if not all your criteria. I ordered the same jacket for the same-type price and have found it to be a great jacket - cool on hot days and using the outer shell it keeps me warm & dry. I haven't had the opportunity to use the liner yet but will as it get cooler. I think you made a wise pick!
