JB, I commute wearing the Joe Rocket Ballistic 7.0 in high 30 and low 40 degree mornings and they keep me warm and dry. They have a waterproof liner which protects against the wind and rain. I had to ride home in the rain last Friday and they did a great job along with my Scorpion textile jacket which is also waterproof. Its a great buy if you want to stick with Joe Rocket.
